Fortified Homes are an excellent company and team to deal with. We originally approached them as they appeared to offer better value for money than the bigger organisations, and we are very happy that we chose them to build our new home. From the day we met to show our concept plans to the day we got the keys, we were very happy with the service from Mike, Jess and the team. They turned things around extremely quickly for us through finalising drawings and consenting and the actual build ran very smoothly and we were kept updated throughout. Any minor issues were resolved promptly and with friendly, professional service. They met the exact handover date that they told us 3 months out and the overall timeframe that they told us from the first meeting. We are very happy with our new home and would not hesitate to recommend Fortified Homes.

We are beyond grateful for our beautiful new home Mike and his team built for us. If it wasn’t for Mike’s can-do attitude and attention to detail, it wouldn’t have been possible to make our first house our dream home!
The house has the best quality craftsmanship, which we have Sam our builder to thank!
And Jess offered the greatest support and provided us with regular updates, which made the process super easy!
We can’t fault anything and highly recommend Fortified Homes to anyone wanting to build!

Even after the handover, Mike has been in touch and visiting making sure Fortified Homes could put their name to a quality build and minimise any issues.
From start to finish Fortified Homes brought the professionalism of a large organisation, while maintaining smaller business values & strong relationships.
They have been customisable, approachable and clinical with details.
Mike’s core background of a building trade, and real knowledge of market trends have been key to guide me with designing a quality home that I am proud of.
Mike has a calm and collected nature that allows you to trust the process and minimise your stress through the journey to concentrate on what is important.
It’s been a pleasure Fortified, you make the building process enjoyable.
10/10 for doing the small things well and building well designed & quality homes.

Would like to say thanks to Mike and his team at Fortified Homes for building this wonderful home for us. This is our first new build in New Zealand and the process could not have been easier. We got in to the house on schedule before Christmas and through out the build we had weekly updates on progress, so knew exactly what stage we were at. Even with supply issues nothing was a issue they were all sorted and we moved in to a great quality home. Would not hesitate to recommend Fortified Homes for your next build great service , friendly team and quality home delivered. Thanks Mike & Lisa and the team for everything.

My partner and I decided to go with Fortified Homes as our builder of choice for our first home and we’ve never looked back. As first-timers, we were incredibly anxious about the whole process but Mike and his team were always there for our guidance and to answer to any queries we had (we had many).
Building with Fortified Homes gave us the flexibility to design our own house plan as well select different materials right down to the tiniest detail. As clients, we were kept well informed of the progress each week which really helped in giving us that extra peace of mind. The whole build process was seamless from start to finish with any minor issues dealt with promptly and in consultation with us.
We couldn’t be happier with our home. Our house was completed within the advised timeframe and the quality and workmanship of our build is second to none. Mike and his team were professional yet friendly and accommodating throughout the entire journey. I will not for a second hesitate to recommend Fortified Homes should you consider building a home.

Fortified homes recently completed our lovely 4 bedroom home in Preston’s Park. From the beginning to the end the service was outstanding! We appreciated the willingness from Mike and his team to ensure everything was perfect, as they have very high standards. Communication was great, the process was enjoyable we could make changes/ upgrades in areas we wanted, or keep the original quality fittings included in our package. - there’s really no limit to the ‘optional upgrades’. You get to create your home how you want it, with in your budget and no unexpected surprises. They have a fantastic team of people who are always available to help, including an amazing interior designer.
I highly recommend fortified homes! If you’re looking for a fantastic experience and a great house for affordable prices then definitely get in touch with the team.
Looking forward to building again with fortified in the future. Also a big thanks to Mike and his team for our beautiful family home we love it!
