Before you hire

  • Get two or three written quotes and compare what each one includes.

  • Ask for recent examples of similar jobs, and read independent reviews.
  • Agree on price, timing and payment terms in writing before work starts.

Common questions

How do I check a builder is licensed?

Search the Licensed Building Practitioners register run by MBIE. Restricted building work, such as structural and weathertightness work on a house, must be done or supervised by an LBP.

What protection do I get when I hire a builder?

For residential work over $30,000 the builder must give you a written contract and a disclosure statement before work starts. The Building Act also gives you implied warranties on the work, and many builders offer a Master Builders or Certified Builders guarantee.
