"We feel very lucky to have found Kelvin! As first-time home owners, in an old house in Petone, we didn't really know where to start. Kelvin came over and gave us quote for a few different jobs, and patiently answered every stupid question we had. He's just finished the first job for us - knocking a new doorway through between two rooms. It ended up being tricky because of a badly-installed heatpump, but Kelvin was super-flexible and really patient throughout, and helped us navigate the whole… situation (even though the problems had nothing to do with him). His workmanship is superb too, and his communication clear and straightforward. I don't have a single negative thing to say about him. Already looking forward to him starting on job #2!"

"I first made contact with Kelvin in early 2018 after reading great reviews on No Cowboys site, to replace existing skylight. Although he was booked up til early Jan 2019 communication was excellent throughout & happily Kelvin was able to do the installation in May 2019. Extremely professional & tidy & well worth the wait! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED "

"Kelvin worked on our kitchen renovation project and the whole job involved a lot of work - removal of old kitchen, demolition of a wall, removal of two windows, installation of insulation and new wall linings. He also installed the laminate floors for our kitchen and dining. I found Kelvin very easy to communicate, he always responded to my queries promptly throughout the project. He completed all the work required on time with high standard to meet a pre-set kitchen installation date. Kelvin… took extra steps to working through several unexpected issues with us during the project. I cannot speak high enough of Kelvin and wish I knew him earlier. We will use him for future renovation and any house maintenance work required."

"Highly recommended! Was introduced to Kelvin by my neighbor and have used him twice since. First was to replace our fence in the backyard and then to replace the weatherboards on two sides our 1910 villa. The weatherboard job also included the repair of multiple studs and window trim and flashing. The quality of work on both jobs was outstanding and they were completed swiftly and on time. He responded to my initial calls quickly, and his assessments and quotes were thorough and reasonably… priced as compared to two other quotes that I received. I found Kelvin very knowledgeable and approachable. His communication throughout both jobs was good and he was happy to listen to my concerns and ideas. His worksite was always tidy, and he always insured our house and pets were secure and the end of the day. Very trustworthy. I have no hesitation in recommending Kelvin and I will be using Kelvin again on any future building/maintenance work!"

"Kelvin submitted a reasonable quote for my small roofing job (replacing barge boards). I wanted it done asap and he managed it to come round in 3 weeks, picking a non-wet day.
He kept me informed throughout and did an excellent job. He was professional and business-like, but easy to get on with and gave me some maintenance hints.
I would use his services again, and would recommend him."

"I rang Kelvin regarding a roof repair that was very difficult due to technical expertise and weather dependant. Kelvin was very professional and was very efficient with his work methodology due to the job being hard to schedule, being so weather dependant. Kelvin has a great eye for detail and the finished product was of a very high standard. Kelvin is very good at communication he explained the methodology and offered cost effective suggestions. The initial job was to replace an internal… gutter flashing but when he removed the gutter we found two additional rusted flashing that had not being removed due to previous bad workmanship. This just reminded me that I was thankful to have Kelvin who is a true tradesmen, has a great eye for detail and you can trust with a really good work ethic. I do not have any hesitation in recommending Kelvin and I will be using Kelvin any future building/maintenance work."

"I rang Kelvin after 5.30pm one evening, i was stuck neding a builder urgently to work with a plumber who was reinstalling a toilet and was limited on time to complete the job. Kelvin pulled over ( he was driving home ) to discuss this, and accepted the job even though he was busy with a renovation . I am so grateful to his quick decsion on taking this job- it got me out of a tight spot ! The toilet floor has been relaid to a standard enabling it to be tiled. According to the tenant he was on… time and a neat worker. I am very grateful to Kelvin for being there with a smile ! I recommend him unreservedly , no job seems to be too small !"

"After finding Kariba Construction on this site, I contacted Kelvin, who was able to come over in a matter of a few days to assess a leak I had discovered in my chimney. It turned out the whole chimney was dangerous and leaking and needed to be pulled down below roof level, sealed and replacement roof tiles put in place. The job was subject to the weather unfortunately, but was still done very quickly and I am very happy with the result. Kelvin was always happy to answer all my questions and was… very professional. I have no hesitation in recommending Kelvin for any building requirements and have already approached him about the next job!"
