It’s a practical town with big north-facing sections, and the shade we build for it is practical too: hard-working, well-made, done once and done properly.

Do you cover the farms and lifestyle blocks around Te Awamutu?
Yes — Kihikihi, Pirongia village, Ōhaupō and the rural roads between are all local runs for us. Big north-facing sections, farmhouse verandas and lifestyle-block entertaining areas are our bread and butter.
