Our Approach

We created Owens to bring our passion for building and our commitment to quality to the market. When you choose Owens, you choose integrity, attention to detail and a commitment to your job.

Quality

No corners cut with Owens. We’re committed to quality results and quality outcomes. From the carpentry in your walls to the seamless, flawless attention to detail of your fit-out.

Detail

The details transform and lift the quality of a build. It starts with the team – the stable of suppliers – who we choose to work with, and it flows through to the planning and meticulous approach taken to project manage and deliver your home.

Better Building

We take building seriously. Our team strive for better building practices, always working to get better at what we do, for better outcomes for our clients.

Meet The Owens

David and Bridget Owens have been building beautiful homes in Wanaka since 2016. Their own home has been featured in several publications, including Here magazine, and recognised nationally in the Registered Master Builders House of the Year competition, and regionally in the New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) awards. It is the team’s commitment to quality, details, and care that their clients love.

Owens Building was founded in 2012 in Christchurch where the team completed a number of architectural builds across the region.

When the business moved to Wanaka, the team found success in satisfying the needs of new clients who shared a vision for excellence and details synonymous with the Owens Building portfolio.

For the Owens the result is in the relationships they forge with clients and partners. It’s in the details and the care they bring to every build.
