Add Value Renovations is a design-and-build team delivering whole-home renovations across Auckland — one team for design, fixed-price cost planning, consent management, and construction, backed by the 10-Year Master Builder Guarantee. Free, on-screen, no obligation · Built from 500+ real Auckland projects Most Auckland renovations fall apart at the handovers . You hire an architect. They hand drawings to a builder. The builder hands consents back to you. Somewhere between the three, the budget blows out, the timeline slips, and finger-pointing starts. Complete home renovations are the projects where this hurts most — too many trades, too many decisions, too much money. We built our design-and-build team so that doesn’t happen to your home. One team. One contract. One fixed price . Design, costing, consent, and construction integrated under one roof — so your whole-home renovation has one team accountable from your first call to the final handover. Design-and-Build Under One Roof Architectural design, interior selections, costing, and construction all sit inside our team. No finger-pointing between separate firms when something changes. Fixed Pricing Before You Sign Our Quantity Surveyor prices the whole project line-by-line off measured drawings. The fixed price is locked in your Master Builder contract — not an estimate that drifts upwards. Consent Management Included Building consent and any resource consent are handled directly with Auckland Council on your behalf, with all documentation prepared by our team — not your problem to chase. 10-Year Master Build Guarantee Every renovation over $30,000 is covered by the Registered Master Builders 10-Year Guarantee — workmanship, weathertightness, structure, and loss of deposit. Want to know what your renovation might cost? Realistic Auckland cost ranges from $100K cosmetic refresh to $1.5M+ premium transformation — see the 2026 cost guide. From first call to final handover . A complete home renovation is a six-stage journey. We organise it into three clear phases so you always know where you stand and what is next. Design & Pricing Free discovery call, onsite consultation, concept drawings, material selections, and quantity surveyor pricing. We lock the design and the fixed price before any building begins. Consent & Preparation We submit building consent and any resource consent to Auckland Council. While it’s processing, we book trades, order long-lead items, and finalise the construction schedule with you. Build & Handover Your site supervisor runs day-to-day. Weekly site meetings, a private project dashboard with photos, and one direct phone number. Final walk-through, Code of Compliance, and Guarantee documents at handover. What we renovate .

The questions Auckland homeowners ask us most often before committing to a complete renovation. A complete home renovation in Auckland typically costs between $100,000 for a cosmetic refresh and $1.5 million-plus for a premium full transformation. Most mid-range whole-home renovations land between $250,000 and $500,000, while high-end renovations with structural changes range from $500,000 to $900,000. Your final cost depends on the size of the home, scope of work, and finish level — and we lock it as a fixed price after design and quantity surveying. A complete home renovation in Auckland usually takes 4 to 9 months on site, plus 2 to 4 months of design, pricing, and consent before construction starts. Cosmetic refreshes can be done in 2 to 4 months on site. Larger renovations involving structural changes or recladding typically run 6 to 12 months. We give you a programme with key milestones before signing the contract. For a full whole-home renovation, we almost always recommend moving out. The kitchen and at least one bathroom are typically offline at the same time, dust and noise are constant, and trades need full access. Most clients rent for the duration or move in with family. For partial renovations or cosmetic refreshes, staged construction can sometimes let you stay — we discuss the realistic options for your project during the consultation. Yes, most complete home renovations in Auckland need building consent — particularly anything involving structural changes, plumbing alterations, drainage, or changes to load-bearing walls. Some cosmetic work like repainting or replacing like-for-like fittings does not require consent. We handle all consent applications with Auckland Council on your behalf, including any resource consent needed for boundary or coverage issues. A renovation keeps the existing structure and reworks it — interior layout, finishes, services, and exterior cladding can all change, but the foundations, framing, and original footprint stay. A rebuild replaces the house entirely on the same section. For most older Auckland homes in good structural condition, a complete renovation gives you a near-new home for significantly less than a rebuild and avoids resource consent for new builds. A well-designed complete renovation typically returns 70 to 100 percent of its cost in added value at sale, and in strong Auckland markets like Remuera, Ponsonby, and Devonport, it can return more than that. Kitchen and bathroom upgrades, open-plan living, indoor-outdoor flow, and energy efficiency improvements deliver the strongest returns. We focus on design choices that lift your daily lifestyle and your resale value. Yes — we are a design-and-build company, which means architectural design, interior selections, structural engineering, and construction all sit under one contract with us. You can come to us with your own architect’s plans if you already have them, or we can take you from blank page to handover. The design-and-build model means there are no gaps between the designer and the builder — and no finger-pointing if something needs to change. After design is locked in, our quantity surveyor prices the project line by line against measured drawings and detailed specifications. That fixed price is what you sign in your Master Builder contract — not an estimate that drifts later. The only things that can change the price during the build are owner-initiated variations, hidden site conditions only revealed once we open up the structure, or council-required changes during consent. The Registered Master Builders 10-Year Guarantee covers workmanship and materials for the first two years, structural integrity for 10 years, weathertightness for 10 years, and loss of deposit. It applies to renovation projects over $30,000 in value. The full policy terms apply — we walk you through exactly what is and is not covered before you sign your contract. We renovate homes right across Auckland — central suburbs like Remuera, Ponsonby, Mt Eden, Epsom, and Parnell; eastern suburbs including St Heliers, Mission Bay, Howick, and Botany; North Shore suburbs from Devonport to Milford; and West and South Auckland on request. Our office is in Newmarket and most of our work is within 30 minutes of central Auckland. The best time to start the design and consent process is 4 to 6 months before you want construction to begin. Auckland Council consent currently takes 20 working days for residential alterations, longer for more complex projects. Spring and early summer are popular start times, so booking design slots 3 to 6 months in advance is wise. We are typically booked 4 to 8 weeks out for new design consultations.
