Your Home Team

Looking to have a beautiful new home designed and built?

We love to build high-performance homes that are a joy to live in and are beautiful to the eye. Our best work comes through learning from and building relationships with people

Our Commitment

We built Design Build Tasman to be better

  • From start to finish you only deal with the business owners. We acknowledge that there are many fine employees in the building industry but nobody will work harder for you or your new home than an owner. Add passion and creativity to the mix and you have an unbeatable combination

  • Good design is everything. Our reputation for design is one of the reasons you are looking at our website right now. It enriches your day-to-day living and doesn’t necessarily cost any more. You know it results in a more enjoyable lifestyle but that it also means better resale value. Don’t have your largest investment squandered - let us help you maximise every aspect of your new home through good design

  • It’s a nice thing to say, but we actually mean it. Our new home build contract is straight from New Zealand Government Standards so you’ll find it’s not weighted in favour of the builder

    Also how does an independent, transferrable, 10-year warranty, backed by a large international company sound? Click on the link to discover its advantages

    10-Year Building Warranty Insurance

  • With every build our aim is to create quality functional spaces that are not only practical for every day living but are also stunning and enjoyable to live in

    We combine this with a 10-year warranty/fixed price/weekly updates on build progress/quality fittings & fixtures

    Throughout our build process you will only deal direct with an owner. It’s our aim to make all our builds easy and enjoyable. All our homes are designed and built by our hand picked experienced and highly recommended team of professionals

  • Lastly, what if we made building enjoyable again? It should be, but to really enjoy the process you need to align yourself with trusted partners who can take the weight off you. James and Richelle Petersen have spent decades in the Tasman home-building industry, earning reputations for quality, value and fairness. Look forward to accuracy, professionalism and timeliness - but also look forward to fun.
