The INSPEC 5‑Step Build Journey
Your vision. Our expertise. Built the right way.
At INSPEC, we believe building should be exciting — not stressful. That’s why we’ve developed a proven 5-step process that puts clarity, communication, and craftsmanship at the centre of every project.
Step 1: Initial Consultation & Site Visit
Let’s talk about what you’re building — and why.
We begin with a no-obligation chat to understand your goals, lifestyle needs, and budget. Then we visit your property to assess the site, talk through your ideas, and explore what's realistically achievable.
Whether you're planning a new build, reclad, extension or minor dwelling, we’ll help shape the scope before you spend a cent on design.
✔ No sales pressure
✔ Honest feasibility advice
✔ Clear next steps explained
Step 2: Design & Planning
From concept to build-ready — with your vision at the centre.
Working with trusted architectural designers (or yours), we’ll guide you through concept drawings, layout options, and material choices that match your style and budget.
We also involve our construction team early, so your design is not only beautiful but also practical, consentable, and cost-effective.
✔ Buildable designs
✔ Material guidance (eco-options available)
✔ Budget-aligned planning
Step 3: Council Consent & Compliance
We handle the paperwork — and the council headaches.
Navigating Auckland Council’s consent process can be time-consuming and confusing. We take care of everything: architectural documentation, engineering input, application lodgement, and communication with the council.
You’ll get progress updates without chasing, and peace of mind knowing everything meets NZ Building Code and local regulations.
✔ Full consent management
✔ Engineering + documentation handled in-house
✔ Transparent updates on progress
Step 4: Construction Begins
Licensed, experienced, and fully accountable from day one.
Once consent is issued, we lock in your build schedule and get to work. Our qualified team handles all stages of construction — from earthworks and framing to finishes and compliance checks.
You’ll get weekly updates with site photos, so you always know what’s happening. We build as if it were our own — no shortcuts, no surprises.
✔ Clear timeline and milestones
✔ Site safety and quality control
✔ Weekly updates + open communication
Step 5: Final Handover
The moment you’ve been waiting for — delivered with care.
We complete a final walkthrough with you, carry out any touch-ups, and ensure everything is finished to spec. You’ll receive your Code Compliance Certificate (CCC), warranties, and a detailed handover pack.
We don't just hand over the keys — we hand over peace of mind.
✔ Post-build checklist + walkthrough
✔ Full documentation + CCC
✔ Clean, completed site — ready to enjoy
