The scope of every project is different, so we tailor our building services around your plans, site and project requirements.

From Plans to a Completed Home
1. Pre-Construction
Good planning is one of the most important parts of a successful new build.
Before construction begins, we review the available plans and project information to understand the proposed building methodology, site conditions, access requirements and construction sequencing.
Identifying potential issues early can help reduce unnecessary delays and variations once construction is underway.
3. Roofing, Cladding & Weathertightness
A home's exterior envelope plays a critical role in protecting the building from Auckland's weather conditions.
Particular attention is given to roofing, cladding, windows, doors, flashings and critical junctions to help achieve a durable and weathertight building.
5. Completion & Handover
Towards the end of construction, we work through the final finishing items and prepare the property for completion and handover.
Our focus is on delivering a finished home that reflects the project documentation and the quality of workmanship expected from Hercules Construction.
2. Foundations & Structural Construction
Once the site is prepared, construction progresses through foundations, structural elements, framing and roofing.
We coordinate the required trades and follow the relevant architectural and engineering documentation throughout the build.
4. Interior Fit-Out
Once the building is enclosed, we coordinate the interior construction and finishing works.
This may include insulation, plasterboard, stopping, interior doors, cabinetry, kitchens, bathrooms, waterproofing, tiling, painting, electrical and plumbing fit-off and flooring.

Building on Difficult Auckland Sites
Not every Auckland property is an easy building site.
Sloping sections, retaining walls, restricted access, neighbouring properties, limited material storage and difficult excavation conditions can significantly affect how a project needs to be constructed.
Hercules Construction has experience dealing with practical site challenges and coordinating construction where careful planning and sequencing are required.
Where specialist design or engineering is required, we work alongside the relevant consultants and construct the works in accordance with the provided documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to build a new house in Auckland?
The cost of building a new home in Auckland depends heavily on the design, floor area, site conditions, foundation requirements, access, materials and level of finish.
Because every project is different, we recommend providing your architectural and engineering documentation so we can better understand the scope before discussing construction costs.
Can Hercules Construction build from my architect's plans?
Yes. If you already have architectural drawings, engineering documentation or consented plans, we can review the documentation and discuss the construction requirements with you.
Can Hercules Construction manage the whole build?
Depending on the agreed scope, we can coordinate the construction work and the various subcontractors required throughout the project.
Do you undertake foundations, retaining and site works?
Yes, depending on the project. Where structural or engineered works are involved, construction is carried out in accordance with the relevant design documentation.
Do new homes require building consent?
New residential dwellings in Auckland will generally require building consent. Depending on the property and proposed development, additional planning or resource consent requirements may also apply.
Your architect or designer can determine the specific consent requirements for your project.
How long does a residential new build take?
Construction time depends on the size and complexity of the house, site conditions, design, material availability, subcontractor scheduling, inspections and weather.
Once we have reviewed the project documentation, we can discuss a more realistic construction programme for your particular build.
