A Wealth Of Refurbishment Experience
With 29 years in the construction industry, we are one of the few commercial refurbishment companies that brings a wealth of experience and expertise to heritage projects. From the start, our company has been passionate about historic buildings. This passion began and blossomed in Napier, where our founding owner undertook his first villa renovation.
From there, he became hooked on historical renovation work. After a few years, commercial work beckoned, and following years on the tools, he honed his project and general management skills—crucial for founding Refurb Plus with his wife in 2012. Since then, we have expanded to a team of 12 and recently entered the Christchurch market.
Our credibility rests on transparent practices, offering building and remediation solutions across both commercial and residential properties.
