HELLO, WE ARE D&B!
Building partners, Dave Merrett and Ben Gorinski, formed D&B Construction in 2007, with the vision to carve out a niche as the best builders of extraordinary homes in Mount Maunganui / Tauranga.
To achieve this vision we also set out to become the most recommended high-end builders in town. Today, we have an experienced team of builders and work alongside talented architects and trusted subcontractors who are passionate about delivering high-end homes to perfection - with the client satisfaction to match.
AN UNSURPASSED REPUTATION
We pride ourselves on exceeding our clients expectations with our attention to detail and craftsmanship, and we enjoy making your home unique to you. We have an unsurpassed reputation for quality, can-do, finding solutions and being good guys to deal with. We want to do our absolute best for our clients and be the best at what we do.
WE DON'T SIT BEHIND A DESK ALL DAY
We have a fresh and straight-up communication style. We employ exceptional foremen but you will always have direct access to us, the owners, Dave and Ben. We don't sit behind a desk all day, we are hands on, out visiting sites, meeting with clients, and engaging with subcontractors to ensure a build of the highest standard right to the end and beyond.
HAPPY PAST CLIENTS
Client satisfaction means everything to us and that's why our clients are more than just clients, they often become our friends. These strong relationships are demonstrated by the constant referrals and recommendations given long after their builds are finished. Even more amazing is how happy past clients are to open their homes to our prospective clients. We are truly grateful to have this support and know we are building today because of it.
WE THINK SIDEWAYS
To build these extraordinary homes we think outside the box and as one client describes we think sideways. We are renowned for adding value and implementing creative but practical ideas as the build progresses. We work hard to ensure you don't have to worry about any aspect of the build and can just enjoy your beautifully built new home.
YOUR VISION A REALITY
Our homes are bespoke and our clients like to be able to manage changes along the way. We enjoy the challenge of making your vision a reality.
BEST RESULTS
For best results your architect and builder should work in tandem and as early as possible. We can help keep build prices realistic and offer our practical knowledge to plans. We are also up to date with the latest materials and building techniques and how the plans work in reality. Our clients always tell us they wish they got us involved earlier to support the architect with the plans - saving money and stress - and to get the best results.
