How we BUILD BETTER…
Energy Efficiency
A well-insulated, draught-free home requires minimal heating.
At OBOE Homes, we combine the strength of mass timber with the superior insulation of SIPs and high-performance windows to craft warm, dry, and comfortable living spaces.
Our homes are designed to be cost-effective and energy efficient. Using passive home principles, they are thermally optimised, airtight structures that benefit from passive solar gain.
Health
Healthy homes, designed with your well-being in mind.
OBOE Homes are crafted to enhance the quality of life. They feature heat exchangers and advanced air filtration systems to ensure that the air inside the building is clean and free of pollutants, creating a genuinely better home for you.
No Waste
Eliminate waste – Build smarter
OBOE minimises construction waste by using precise, factory-cut components. These materials are custom-made in factories that recycle offcuts, ensuring sustainable production. There is little on-site measuring or cutting, so there’s no mess, excess, or landfill—just efficient, waste-free construction.
Efficient Land Use
Make better use of precious land and maximise living space in the process.
Enhance construction efficiency and maximise space on any site. When done correctly, this method is more cost-effective and provides extra room for outdoor living.
OBOE Homes are engineered to enable multi-level construction. Because we use mass timber and SIPs, increasing the height is easy while retaining strength and energy efficiency.
Multi
Generational
Better living spaces for all the family.
OBOE Homes are crafted for contemporary living, offering flexible spaces that can evolve as family needs shift. Having additional space and privacy to accommodate relatives, friends, or tenants is simply practical.
Style & Design
Homes that feel great to be in.
At OBOE Homes, we create warm, comfortable spaces filled with natural light that are optimised for everyday living.
We believe every New Zealander deserves a home they can be proud of, one that feels special in every way. Every detail, from the lighting to the layout, flooring, and fixtures, is thoughtfully designed to create an exceptional living experience.
Low Carbon
Low environmental impact during construction and beyond.
We design sturdy, energy-efficient homes that emphasize sustainability and minimise carbon emissions.
Utilizing timber for structural elements and cladding decreases carbon emissions throughout construction and sequesters carbon over the home’s lifespan of 100 years or more. All building components are designed and chosen for their durability and sustainability credentials.
Quality Assurance
We choose materials designed to stand the test of time and build precisely to plan.
Every home is engineered and constructed using highly durable materials, ensuring long-lasting performance in the harshest climates and the highest wind zones. Each build comes complete with full plans and comprehensive documentation of performance metrics.
How we BUILD FASTER…
Time
Manufactured offsite, built onsite—super fast and efficient.
Our cut-to-order building systems provide substantial time savings. We significantly shorten construction timelines using factory-cut SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels), engineered wood, and ready-to-install windows and doors.
These precision-engineered materials are sent straight to the site, where we quickly assemble sturdy, appealing homes designed with passive home principles—merging speed, quality, and energy efficiency.
Less Cost
Time is money—faster builds mean lower costs.
Through meticulous planning and the seamless delivery of high-quality pre-cut materials, we achieve a high-spec finish at a competitive cost.
By managing the entire process from sourcing land and overseeing design, engineering, and approvals to coordinating logistics and orchestrating on-site construction and finishing, we eliminate the delays and costly overruns typical in traditional projects. The net result is a superior, market-ready product delivered at a competitive price.
Weather-Tight In a Fortnight
Weather-tight in 2 weeks
Our streamlined construction process ensures the home is fully sealed and protected from the elements within two weeks. This rapid turnaround allows interior trades to begin their work sooner, accelerating the project timeline while maintaining quality and efficiency.
Offsite Manufacturing
Precision-crafted components for accuracy and efficiency.
Each component is machine-cut and millimetre-perfect, ensuring an excellent fit and minimising the necessity for on-site adjustments. This significantly saves time during the construction process. Our teams also find the building process more enjoyable, as there’s no guesswork, rework, or waste.
Logistics + Supply Chain
Materials on site and on time
We streamline logistics and the supply chain to ensure a smooth, hassle-free building process. By partnering with reliable suppliers and utilizing just-in-time delivery, we reduce delays and keep projects on track. Our effective coordination of materials—from factory to site—ensures every component arrives precisely when and where needed, enabling a faster, more cost-effective build.
Specialist Teams
Experienced and skilled architects, engineers and builders
Our expert teams bring knowledge and skill to every OBOE project. From architects and engineers to builders and craftsmen, each member is a specialist in their field, working together to ensure the highest quality and performance standards. With a focus on precision and efficiency, our teams are dedicated to delivering homes that surpass expectations.
We place the utmost importance on the safety and well-being of our build teams and provide comprehensive on-site facilities—including espresso coffee!
