Our Services
From concept to completion, we build high-quality new homes tailored to the way you live. Whether you come to us with your own plans ready to go or choose from our Arcadia Range, we make the build process seamless and personal. Our Arcadia Range features a collection of thoughtfully designed, pre-approved plans with proven layouts that balance function, value, and timeless style - ready to be built as they are or customised to suit your needs. However you start, we’ll work with you to create a home that feels right for you, now and into the future.
New Homes
We specialise in transportable homes, providing a full end-to-end service that makes the process seamless and stress-free. Transportable homes are a smart way to add value to an existing property, or to maximise a larger section by relocating multiple dwellings to support your investment goals. From renovating and upgrading homes to coordinating transport, site works, and all associated logistics, we manage every detail with precision and care. Our experience over the years ensures each home is delivered, installed, and finished to a high standard, creating a quality outcome that is both practical and value-driven.
Transportable Homes
Renovation projects are our speciality, bringing experience, strong problem-solving skills, and practical design thinking to every build. Renovations often come with unknowns, and our expertise allows us to assess what’s possible, find smart solutions, and deliver outcomes that are both functional and visually cohesive. From kitchen and bathroom renovations to garages, extensions, outdoor living spaces, and full home upgrades, we manage the process from planning through to completion. Our focus is always on creating well-built, good-looking spaces that work seamlessly with your existing home and add long-term value.
Renovation Projects, Decks & Extensions
We work across a range of commercial and development opportunities, delivering practical, well-executed solutions for businesses and investors. Our experience includes office renovations, commercial fit-outs, retail and hospitality spaces, workshops, and light industrial projects, with a focus on functionality, durability, and clean, professional finishes. For clients looking to develop land or unlock the potential of an existing property, we’re keen to be involved early—offering buildability insight, cost-effective solutions, and hands-on delivery. We enjoy working alongside investors and developers, whether as a trusted builder or collaborative partner, to help bring projects from concept to completion with confidence.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“‘Dan and his team recently completed a project for us in Rotorua. They have been very professional and easy to deal with from start to finish. Dan spent a lot of time to fully understand our project and requirements and did his best to meet our tight time frame while maintaining the quality of workmanship. He is fair, efficient and a knowledgeable builder who always shared ideas to improve the project. We highly recommend Dufty & Co for your next construction project.”
Sharareh Javadian | 2025‘I honestly can’t speak highly enough of Dufty & Co. Builders. Dan and the whole team were incredible to work with from start to finish. We did a full house renovation on our home in Rotorua, and while I was initially nervous about taking on such a big project, Dan made the entire process feel manageable, transparent, and even enjoyable. Dan’s attention to detail and knowledge were obvious right from the beginning. He took the time to explain every step, offer practical advice, and always made sure I felt confident in the decisions we were making. The workmanship is outstanding — everything was finished to such a high standard, and you can really see the care and pride that went into it.’
Sally & Peter | 2025Julie & Mike | 2026‘We needed a complete rebuild of our jetty. Dan and his team were fantastic and we are absolutely thrilled with the final product.
Communication was clear from the start and they also delivered to timeframes and as per the quote.
Highly recommend and wish you the best with growing your business. Thankyou.’
Jeanne & Sam | 2025‘Myself and Sally were the very happy clients of our recent Sunset Road build. The team at Dufty+Co were awesome and the finish on the house was exceptional. If you are wanting to build your own home or a rental (which this one was) then the house plan we went with was incredible value. I would highly recommend giving Dan a call for your next build.’
Sally & Scott | 2025‘We have just had a new pine deck built by Dan & his team and we can't praise them enough for their exceptional work!
From start to finish the work completed by Dave & his apprentice Bowan was excellent & nothing was too much for them. They were efficient, completed our new deck within schedule & cleaned up every night.
We absolutely love the new deck & are so pleased with the final result.
We would highly recommend Dufty & Co for any of your building needs.’
