Our mission is to build for good.
Koha Homes was founded to offer a better way of building.
Dedication
Dedication to quality, whatever your budget, with homes that will stand the test of time.
Transparency
Transparent pricing, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Customer care
Exceptional customer care that puts you first, from really listening to your needs to outstanding communication throughout the build, so you get exactly the home you want.
Commitment
And a commitment to giving back to the community, including donating a percentage of profits to local charities and community organisations – so together we’re making a difference, not just making a home.
It all starts with a conversation. We work hard to understand your building requirements and your section before collaborating with our award-winning architectural design partners to create a plan that reflects you and your dreams.
If you don’t have a section yet, don’t worry, we can help you find one.
At Koha Homes, we’re dedicated to creating a home you’ll love, so we review and adjust until you’re 100% happy.
Then we guide you through the specifications, helping you select the fixtures and fittings that will complement your home and lifestyle, while ensuring optimum energy-efficiency to save you money for years to come.
Once we’ve obtained the necessary local government consents, we’ll begin the build, working with trusted local tradesmen who share our vision of caring for our community.
You’ll be welcome to visit the build, but we’ll also keep you fully informed at every step of the way, so you know exactly what’s happening – and when.
Once your beautiful new home is complete, we’ll present you with the keys, while you relax in the knowledge that we’ll be there if you need us with after-care service that’s second-to-none.
Your brand-new home is yours to enjoy – and you can take pride in the fact that you’ve given back to the community in the process. A percentage of profits from the build of your home will be donated to local charities and community organisations through the Upstream Charitable Foundation.
You’ll even receive a report detailing exactly how much was donated from the build of your home.
A percentage of profits from every home built is donated to local charities and community organisations through the Upstream Charitable Foundation. Koha Homes also chooses to work with other Upstream Approved Suppliers wherever possible, which generates further community contributions.
Koha Homes can help with all types of build, from small but perfectly formed through to large family homes. What they have in common is the highest quality of workmanship and materials that will stand the test of time. We know you’ll be delighted with the result.
Yes, absolutely. Energy efficiency begins right back at square one, with the design of the home, ensuring that the aspect, layout and design elements such as depth of eaves and position of doorways for cross-breezes are planned to capture the free energy of the sun while keeping your home cooler in the hot summer months.
We ensure all the homes we build are well-insulated and we include pre-wiring for solar, in case you wish to add solar panels in the future.
Koha Homes always looks for ways to minimise the environmental impact of your build. This includes partnering with WasteCo Ltd for rubbish removal. The only New Zealand-owned skip company, WasteCo hand sorts their skips to divert over 50% of waste away from landfills.
If you are interested in other aspects of energy-efficient building, please give Koha Homes a call to chat about what you have in mind.
The time it takes to build your home depends on a lot of things: the complexity of the build, location and how quickly the consent is issued by the council, for instance, but at Koha Homes we strive to be extremely realistic with our timeframes, so you know exactly what to expect.
Once we’ve given you a timeframe, we’ll do everything in our power to make the build happen on time. Some circumstances are beyond our control, such as the industry-wide material shortage in 2022, but if anything changes, we’ll be in touch to let you know.
What we can promise is to keep you updated at every step along the way. You’ll hear from us by phone or email, and with shared documents that let you see the process unfold. We welcome you to visit the site regularly so you can feel the excitement of watching your home take shape!
We'd love to hear from you, wherever you are in your journey.
