Oratia Home banner

Tania and Aiden purchased a picturesque property in Oratia, West Auckland, with stunning views and surrounded by native bush, but the existing house was falling apart. When they contacted Cooper and Cooper Builders Auckland, they had already made the decision to demolish the old house and build a new home.

This architecturally designed home was a very technical build with some beautiful detailing around windows. A cedar weatherboard house that looks fantastic with a concrete feature wall entry, giving a great contrast in materials.

In our early discussions, Tania and Aiden mentioned how it would be great to keep some mementos from the old house. We decided that throughout the demolition stage we would collect any timber that could be recycled, such as the old Rimu joists, the Kauri T & G flooring, and the Kauri weatherboards. We were able to re-run the floor boards and use them in the entryway, dining room and kitchen. The joists were dressed and we made exquisite vanities. The weatherboards were dressed too, for the wall paneling in the kitchen and behind the fireplace.

The end result is a stylish, modern home that Tania and Aiden are loving, and will enjoy for many years to come!

The right projects, the best service

For our team, it’s not about getting any job – it’s about getting the right job. We sit down with you and discuss all your needs, your preferences, and your time and budget. These may be some aspects for you to consider:

   •   Is this the right time in my life to be renovating or building?

   •   Will this planned renovation or build overstretch my family?

   •   Is renovating or building a preferable option, or should I consider moving?

After we’ve agreed the type of renovation or build you need, we bring in our experienced architect to document your ideas. We then present up to two cost and project options, leaving you the final decision.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
