Our Black Swamp project is live on our website!

Nestled within a secluded mandarin orchard down Black Swamp Road, just minutes from Tara Iti and Te Arai Beach, sits a luxury glamping retreat complete with an architecturally designed bathroom and outdoor kitchen.

The owner's brief was simple: “Can you build me a tent?”

What followed was one of the most unique and rewarding projects we have delivered. A bespoke safari-style glamping lodge designed to blend seamlessly into the surrounding landscape while offering all the comforts of luxury accommodation.

Meet the team - Ollie

Ollie has been part of Elite for over 3 years now and decided he didn't want to feature in the "meet the apprentices" so he got qualified and became the newest qualified builder in our team as of last week.

Congrats Ollie - well done on the hard mahi, learning, progress and dedication you've shown in the last 3 years with us working towards your qualification.
Ollie is a quiet achiever and has a strong desire to absorb knowledge and produce Elite workmanship. Ollie is a valued team member who always brings the laughs.

Ollie grew up in West Auckland before making the move north 3 years ago. Out of work you'll find Ollie hanging with his young family with baby #2 due very soon.

Meet the team - Zac

Zac with a C is a new face to the Elite Building crew. Zac joined us in early 2026 and has jumped onto our Cullen street job.

Zac has over 10 years experience in the residential building sector with 6 of these refining his skills as a qualified builder in residential construction. Zac brings a wealth of knowledge to site and is steady measured builder which in turn leads to him being a huge asset to site, the foreman and rest of the team.

Born in aussie (we don't hold it against him) and raised in west Auckland, Zac and his wife have called Northland home for the last 3 years. Outside of work you'll likely see Zac working on his fitness, hunting or working on his own home.

MERRY CHRISTMAS from the Elite Building Team to yours.

A big thank you to all our clients past and present, suppliers, sub trades and our epic Elite Team that we get to work with everyday.

We appreciate all of our wider network who help bring our builds to life and we value those new relationships we have formed in business this year and those who have been alongside us for over 8 years.
