👀 Take a look back at a house extension we completed in Wheatstone Valley last year.

Filmed on a sunny day in September as our team were standing the new timber frames, this was the stage where the extension really started to take shape, with the new structure tying neatly into the existing home.

Built by DStevens.

Another 130 native trees in the ground 🌳🐦

Our 2026 contribution through Trees That Count is supporting restoration work at Amberly Farm, where native planting is helping improve biodiversity, protect waterways, reduce erosion, and restore habitats for native species across farm blocks in Wainui and Tolaga Bay.

Since starting this initiative in 2023, DStevens has now funded 500 native trees across four local restoration projects. Together, these trees are expected to remove approximately 111 tonnes of CO₂e over 50 years while helping restore 1,445m² of land with native vegetation.

We’re proud to support practical, long-term environmental action within our region.

DStevens has made the decision to close Rylock Gisborne from 19 May 2026.

This change relates only to Rylock Gisborne. DStevens continues to operate across construction, joinery, interiors, and as the local installer for Louvretec.

We are working with Fisher Aluminium to support continuity for clients requiring aluminium joinery services.

Rylock Gisborne has been an important part of our work in Tairāwhiti since 1970, delivering aluminium windows and doors for homes, schools, commercial buildings, and community projects across the region. We are proud of what our team has achieved over that time.

Ngā mihi to our Rylock Gisborne team, past and present, for more than five decades of quality workmanship and commitment. The team has been a valued part of the wider DStevens business, and we are grateful for their contribution.

We also thank Altus for their support of Rylock Gisborne over many years and their assistance through this change.

We’re getting stuck in and preparing to pour a new concrete slab at this home in Gisborne.

Once the slab is complete, we’ll get started on installing a new Louvretec opening roof, creating a more usable outdoor living space year-round.

With new timber framing now in place, the scale of the addition at Haronga House – our latest renovation project in Kaiti – is starting to take shape.

The new extension opens the home out to the lawn and creates a stronger connection between indoors and out.
