About CRAFT HOMES

MEET THE DIRECTOR TOBY

Picture
I grew up on a farm near Pio Pio, a small town in the King Country.  Growing up rurally instilled a hard work ethic in me and also taught me a large range of practical skills.  Spending a lot of time in the bush as a kid saw me develop a close affinity to, and respect for, New Zealand’s beautiful natural environment.

In 2002, keen for some adventure, I headed overseas, where I spent seven years working as a project manager on fencing contracts in Australia and the UK.

After meeting my Scottish wife, Cat, in the UK, we decided to move back to New Zealand to take on a new challenge. I was keen to upskill and learn a new trade that would put my practical skills and project management experience to good use.  I embarked on a building apprenticeship and took on various roles as a foreman. I also became a Licensed Building Practitioner.

We started Craft Homes Ltd in 2015  to further develop my passion for building sustainable homes with the highest quality workmanship and have since moved the business to Raglan in the Waikato.

Picture
We have grown both our business and our family, with the welcome addition of our boys Lachie and Angus.  Becoming a family man has cemented for me the importance of creating sustainable, healthy and functional family homes.

My team and I place huge importance on working with our clients to accommodate their new build or renovation project around busy family life.  This includes choosing only a select few professional subcontractors with whom I have a high degree of trust.
