The company is a member of Registered Master Builders and was established by Jeffrey Dennison in 2016.

“Palmerston has been our base for the business, but we are expanding into the wider Otago region. We employ staff in surrounding towns and cities,” Jeff says.

The company specialises in the construction and renovation of residential and commercial projects and its client testimonies point to the high standard of work and project management provided.

As a smaller business, JDBuilders is “very flexible” in dealing with client requirements without the corporate overhead of larger companies.

“We have the skills and experience necessary to address any technically challenging aspects of a project, combined with the attention to detail and high level of interior finishes required on residential and commercial fit-out projects. To us, every construction project is unique, we build with passion.”

A team is created for each new project, which includes JDBuilders, the clients consultants, supply chains, and authorities to ensure the best outcome.

The business has experienced consistent growth since it was established, with word-of-mouth referrals from satisfied clients being a common way of gaining new business.

The company has developed a range of pre-designed new home plans that are great for inspiration and ideas. They can be customised to suit individual needs and situations, or a design and build service can be provided for entirely bespoke builds for a broad demographic.

“We are in a growing area and because we’ve have the advantage of the coastal proximity, we can cater for people who are looking for a retirement home, holiday accommodation or first home buyers.”

JDBuilders recently started a large commercial renovation on East Otago High School, which won through a Ministry of Education tender process.

The project covers two blocks comprising a total of 16 classrooms and involves future- proofing the exterior by the addition of weatherboards, replacing the windows on one block with double glazed aluminium joinery, replacing the trusses, and a reroof along with exterior alterations.

Interior work includes replacing ceiling panels and removing skylights.

The classrooms have been weatherproofed by a full temporary canopy to streamline the work and to eliminate weather delays.

Highlighting the scope of work JDBuilders can tackle, the company has completed an impressive renovation on a beautiful two-storey rural lifestyle home clad in Oamaru stone in Herbert.

A key aspect of the renovation was to replace its roof.

“New roofing was required and initially the client had opted for slate, however, this was not possible due to the pre-existing trusses/framing in place, which had been designed for a lighter roof.

“Fortunately, we were able to suggest a product with the aesthetics of slate but much lighter weightwise.”

The project also involved cleaning the Oamaru stone, fitting doubleglazed windows, the addition of barge boards, and the installation largeformat frost resistant synthetic porcelain tiles, which replaced the original paving outside the front entrance.

“Our clients were so happy with the result that we have been invited back at a later time to complete some interior upgrades.”
