A decade on the tools before the spreadsheets. We know what we're pricing because we've built it. Qualified LBPs in the office, on the site, signing the work off.
KDB Construction is an Auckland main contractor. We deliver commercial buildings, Ministry of Education school works, Kāinga Ora housing, private residential, apartments and cubby cabins. Anywhere from Warkworth to Pukekohe.
We started on the tools. Founder spent years carrying timber before running a programme. That's the floor for everyone who signs a KDB drawing — you manage construction by knowing construction, not by reading about it.
Every build is supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner. The same person from first site visit to PS3 handover. No baton pass. No "that was the previous PM's call". One person accountable, start to finish.
We price what we can verify. We put variations in writing before work proceeds. We deliver documentation at handover — PS3 producer statement, O&M manuals, as-builts — as one package, not a slow drip over six months.
The work shows up the same way on a $40k school upgrade and a $12m apartment block. Same standard. Same process. Same four steps. That's the whole business in one sentence.
If you want to see it, our selected work is five builds that tell the story. Twenty more on request.
These aren't marketing lines. They're the things that get a job across the line without drama — and the things we'll lose work over before we compromise on.
We built this company because we got sick of the way the industry treats clients — vague scope, moving prices, silent weeks, late documentation. KDB is the opposite of that, on purpose.
Different rules, same standard. If it's a build in Tāmaki Makaurau, we've probably done it. If we haven't, we'll tell you before we quote.
Tell us the scope, the site, the drawings you've got. We'll come back inside one business day with next steps.
