Transforming Homes with Expertise and Simplicity

Our story at Add Value Renovations began in a quaint Auckland suburb, born out of a familiar challenge faced by founders Simon and Joanna—a quest for more space without the prospect of a larger house. Simon, drawing on his building prowess, converted their spare room into a breath-taking master suite, not just resolving their space dilemma but significantly enhancing their home’s value. While it may sound simple, the journey was far from easy and filled with complexities and stress.

Simon, a builder by trade, encountered challenges in navigating architectural design, plumbing, and electrical work. The search for a suitable architect proved difficult, and even when found, the submission of plans to the council faced a six-month delay. Overcoming this hurdle, Simon then had to coordinate with subcontractors to ensure timely project completion. This intricate process became even more demanding, especially with the arrival of a newborn. It became evident to Simon and Joanna that such projects required dedicated, professional management—someone to liaise with tradesmen full-time, delivering a quality and stress-free experience.

This personal triumph birthed a vision – a vision to spread joy among families by revolutionizing the building journey. Hence, Add Value Renovations emerged—a company committed to transforming houses into dream homes without the upheaval of moving. Our journey is anchored in core values, shaping our ethos and guiding every renovation project:
