Remember this wee Kaiteri beauty we renovated last year? It’s time to share some more snaps! The boys have been busy recently finishing off the decking, while our lovely clients have been getting stuck into the landscaping.
What a spot, it is absolutely gorgeous. We couldn’t be more proud of how this one turned out, and we hope that deck is full of constant sunshine.☀️
Hear how our clients found building with Big Bad Wolf:
“Manu and the team are fabulous. Communication was superb. So easy to work with and supportive of our decisions. The level of craftsmanship, attention to detail and overall finish has exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend this company. We had a major rebuild of an older property and we couldn’t be happier.”

You’ve already seen the inside of our recent office overhaul, but the exterior is bringing just as much heat. 🔥
The office makes a statement before you even walk through the doors, by contrasting the bold, dark cladding with a crisp white entranceway and warm timber battens.
It’s built tough, it looks premium, and it’s ready for business. Swipe through to check out the exterior details! ⚒️

There’s no shortcut to becoming a great builder, but over four years of grit with the pack is a pretty good way to get there.
We are proud to announce that Sef is officially a qualified builder. He has been grafting hard, showing up and getting it done. He’s now got the paperwork!
Congrats Sef, another top-tier tradesman 👏

Watch out Christchurch, our young wolf is incoming! 🐺
This weekend, our very own Caleb is stepping up to the plate at the Apprentice Of The Year competition.
Caleb has been putting in the absolute hard yards for us, bringing his A-game to our builds and keeping the rest of the pack on their toes. It takes serious grit and precision to work at this level, and we see the dedication he brings to the site every single day.
Now it’s time to show the judges how the Big Bad Wolf team gets the job done. We couldn’t be prouder to have him representing us on the big stage.
Give ‘em hell, Caleb! Go smash it and make us proud. Drop a 👏 in the comments to wish him luck!

The professional shots of our recent commercial fit-out have landed, and the finish is looking flawless. We brought the signature Big Bad Wolf standard into the corporate space, transforming this Nelson Tasman office into a sharp, inspiring place to work. It’s amazing what a combination of floor-to-ceiling glass, natural light, and custom timber detailing can do.

Huge day on site in Motueka - The boys have been putting in the hard yards to get the pod floor down, and today we finally poured the slab for the brand new Huia Rugby club rooms. 🏉
This build has truly taken a village. There have been so many moving parts, but the pack got it done. A massive thank you to everyone who has pitched in, helped out, and donated to the rugby club to get us to this milestone.
Proud to be building this space for our local legends. Stay tuned for more updates as we go vertical!

The roof is on in the sounds and not even the Big Bad Wolf is blowing this off. 🐺💨 With the profile of this build really starting to take shape, we can confidently say this is going to be the exact place we’d want to be all summer long.
