"We were novices to house building, so started off asking friends and acquaintances names of reputable builders, one name kept coming up- Bevin MacCarthy/Bay Builders. From our first meeting with Bevin we were comfortable with his ability, and we were not disappointed throughout the build. We utilised Bevin’s knowledge as our project manager so he kept us up to date on progress, and our next step for ordering fittings and fixtures. We were more than happy with the quality and finish of our home and after completion follow ups. We have and will continue to recommend Bevin and Bay Builders."

"We would highly recommend Bay Builders, Bevin MacCarthy and his team to anybody considering building a new home. Bevin contacted us by email, after hearing we were looking for a builder and after we checked, he was fully recommended by our Architect and Kerikeri Placemakers.

We can not say thanks enough to Bevin, for all of his patience in listening to our questions, giving suggestions and the work he and his team put into building our house in Kerikeri.  Bevin only uses skilled subcontractors, who take pride in giving quality results. We are more than happy with what we have received at the end. It could have been a difficult process, trying to build our house from overseas but Bevin and the Bay Builders team were all positive, and they will be building our next home, if we decide to do it again."

"We can’t speak highly enough of Bevin MacCarthy and Bay Builders.  After they built our Opito Bay home 7 years ago, we had no hesitation in going back to them for our recent additions.  With our previous experience of excellent workmanship, communication, top organisation, honest, fair and helpful dealings with Bevin and his team, we could not consider using anyone else."

"I would like to take the opportunity of saying a few words about Bay Builders and their performance on my spec house in Kerikeri.  Firstly I live in London and the first time I meet Bevin was when the roof was going on the house.  I trusted Bevin completely to do the job, based on nothing but phone conversations. I found that the quality of the workmanship was excellent, Bevin’s communication with me on the other side of the world was excellent and there were no cost overruns.  I endorse his work without hesitation.  If you don’t use Bay Builders, then best of luck with your build process.  If you do use Bay Builders, you won’t need any luck."

We had our house built by Bay Builders in 2009.  They helped us to design the perfect plan for us that was within our budget.  From there right through to completion, every stage was so well managed that we can honestly say it was completely stress free.  Bevin was always very easy to contact and his communication with us was excellent.  Bevin and his team did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend Bay Builders to everyone.

"Te Runanga O Whaingaroa along with Housing New Zealand and Abbeyfield New Zealand utilised the services of Bay Builders in 2007/2008 to construct Abbeyfield Kaeo – a facility designed for independent living for the elderly. The facility is a wonderful asset to our community and throughout the construction Bevin and his team of sub contractors battled very bad weather conditions and difficult design plans.  To date Bevin is still available to discuss any issues  and is always very prompt to return calls and assist in any way he can. 

This initial relationship has lead to Bay Builders contracting further work with Housing New Zealand and the programme they deliver to upgrade sub standard housing in Northland. I have also recommended Bevin and his team to friends wanting a reliable builder with above average communication skills and excellent workmanship."
