WITH CARL MAPLEY
What Carl’s clients have to say Signature Homes was always our first choice for the building company to design and build our new home. Carl, our New Home Consultant has been exceptional in guiding us through the stages of planning and design. As a qualified landscaper, tiler and an experienced project manager he is highly knowledgeable about all aspects of the building process and we feel so well supported in the decisions we have made so far. We have really enjoyed working together with Carl to discuss our concepts and ideas, create our floor plan and select our cladding, fixtures and fittings. Carl has been excellent in communicating with us, presenting us with innovative ideas and helping to fine tune the changes we made to our plans. We are excited for the next stage of our building journey.
Jo & Sam Thomas We had purchased a section and were daunted at the prospect of building. On a friend’s advice, we did a tour of show homes; the minute we walked into the Matangi showhome, I knew we were in the right place. Carl showed us through the house, and we knew it would be our home. Carl and Signature Waikato are good people with a whole lot of common sense. They were pragmatic and made a few changes to suit our site. The build is progressing well, we feel that the communication has been outstanding, and the quality of workmanship has been fantastic. We look forward to creating another 20 years of memories in our new home.
Robyn & Simon Gillespie
We’ve recently built our first home with Signature and the experience was far more seamless then we expected. The team was very patient with us throughout the process as the titles for our land took a while to come through. They guided us along the way and let us take the time we needed. Throughout all stages of the planning process we felt supported by Carl, he was attentive to our needs, made appropriate suggestions and made the process a bit of fun too! We very much appreciated that there were no ‘surprises’ throughout the build and any minor issues that arose were quickly dealt with to our satisfaction. We are so happy with our new home and we highly recommend the Signature team!
Molly & Brett Mundell We fell in love with the Signature Homes showroom in Matangi and wanted to build something similar to this house. We contacted Signature Homes and Carl was onto helping us straight away. We went through about three designs before we settled on the Norfolk design with a few really cool upgrades. Carl guided us throughout the process and also Rochelle played a massive part in coordinating our decision making and keeping us up to date with progress every week. So happy with the process and would highly recommend Signature Homes Waikato team. Thanks team.
Craig Stewart We first met Carl Mapley at the Waikato home show and having visited other franchises we were impressed with Signature and Carl being the most switched on to our requirements. Having drawn up our plan ourselves when we presented it to Carl & architect Andrea. They were so enthusiastic & put some other ideas & tweaks to us to consider & never once were pushy or negative.
Dianne & Steve Shailer
We were looking at getting on the property market in Hamilton post the COVID-19 lockdown, but struggled to find land in a suitable area. We knew we wanted to build new, but had no idea who with, or where to find land. After sending out an email to most of the new home franchises in Hamilton, we knew we wanted to deal with Signature Homes from the start. Carl has so far been marvellous to work with, nothing is an issue, big or small. He takes the time to listen to and understand your needs and translates them perfectly into the design of your home.
Keenan & PortiaAlexander Carl has been great to work with, His communication has been great, he goes above and beyond all while not putting pressure on you. Carl ultimately the reason we have laid our trust in signature homes to build our dream family home and we can’t wait to see it all come together!

With this in mind, we have created collections of plans that include almost any layout you can think of, and they are a great place to start.
