This is the master bedroom, walk in robe and ensuite from a recent build. The bedroom walls feature lime washed paint and a timber panel feature wall. In the ensuite the textured terracotta feature tiles, black and white floor and the reeded glass dividing panel create a unique space.

Here are some photos of the open plan living and kitchen space of a recently completed new build. Some of our favourite features are the high ceilings which are lined with cedar, the oversized pendant lights and the 5mm solid stainless steel benchtop in the kitchen. The space looks amazing.

Beautiful
Absolutely stunning 😍
Here are the completed exterior photos from a new build we completed before Christmas. Rise Residential became involved in this project in 2021 as an on-sold EQC claim, with our assistance the job progressed and eventually became a rebuild. The old house was demolished in May of 2024 and the new home was completed 6 months after.

Stunning work as always Ben and team 👏
This is a small pedestrian foot bridge in Sumner we have just completed with CJS Services for the Christchurch City Council. It was to replacement for the original bridge across an open stormwater channel which was well on its way to collapsing due to rotten framing.

On this new home Rise Residential completed all the landscaping features from the decks and stairs to the driveway and fencing. We even planted the trees, shrubs, and grass. We are incredibly pleased with the end product.

Love that hot pink! Who knew sport could be so stylish?
On this home we replaced all the old single glazed timber windows with thermally broken aluminium inserts, the existing timber frames and architraves were retained to keep the character of this older, well maintained, home intact. We also added new large bifold doors onto the existing deck and constructed a new covered roof attached to the house for a shaded external living area.

We are undertaking a reclad of a 90’s home at the moment, construction methods and water management in residential homes have changed a lot since then for the better.
Here we have a photo of the SSS substrate, which was underneath the direct fixed stucco plaster, many years of moisture has left it warped and falling to pieces.
The other two photos are of an internal gutter where the glue had failed and nails had worked their way loose through thermal movement over time piercing the membrane, all the surrounding plywood and framing is rotten.
Visually this house didn’t look too bad from the outside but small amounts of water ingress into a home over time can cause a lot of damage.

We do small jobs too! For this customer we built a small deck by their front door to elevate the entrance into their home. The kwila decking against the stone cladding looks great.

Its great to see the scaffolding come down on this new build. The cladding on this home is a paint finished bagged brick. The rustic look that comes with this type of finish changes throughout the day as the sun hits the house at different angles causing shadows. This cladding is accompanied with cedar fascia, cedar T&G raking soffits and cedar detailing around the upper windows.

This month we started a large renovation which involves a full replacement of the cladding, the roof, and windows. To protect the house from the weather during the work we are tenting the house in shrink wrap.
The size of the scaffolding prior to the installation of the shrink wrap is impressive.

We are so impressed with how stunning this internal ceiling is in our client’s new build. The cedar tongue and groove ceiling linings have been installed with hidden fixings and 2 skylights allow light to flood into the space. At over 7 meters high this one-of-a-kind ceiling creates an incredible dining and living space for our clients.

Stunning 😍
Here are some photos of the stunning kitchen from one of our latest projects, a new build in Lincoln. This beautiful, high spec kitchen features elegant stone countertops, quality Westinghouse appliances, a butler’s pantry and a stunning internal/external schist wall. Naturally lit with 3 skylights, this space is light, airy and perfect for entertaining.

Looks really good well done!
So light and bright! Love the stone in there too!
That’s looking fabulous.
This is one of our newly completed projects, an extension to an existing home for a client who wanted some additional living space. Our client wanted to use this as a ‘rumpus room’ and install an indoor golf simulator. We have purposely designed and built this space with cathedral ceilings to allow for this.
We did encounter some challenges during this job, which required resource consent due to the design breaching conditions regarding boundary set backs and total land coverage. We were able to work through the process of applying for and obtaining resource consent to ensure our client was able to proceed with the project.
We hope our client enjoys this unique and functional new space!

On a recent project we installed some Western Red Cedar vertical shiplap weatherboards, these boards included random width and random depth timber. The finished product looks great and adds a bit more texture to traditional vertical cedar weatherboards.

Looking awesome team!
Can’t wait to see the finished house!
We really enjoyed creating this brand new home for our client. Something so rewarding about starting with a bare piece of land and turning it into this! We hope you are enjoying your lovely new home.

It's going great thanks! All the landscaping was done before Xmas and the outdoor fireplace is all built now ❤️❤️ Would highly recommend ben and his team
Beautiful Ben and team! Your work is impeccable 💕
Looks fantastic! Love the under bench lighting and stone pillar!
Wow, it’s already March and we have been a bit slow on the updates this year! This week we kicked off an exciting new project in Lincoln, a brand new family-sized home with a 3 car garage. This property will be coming up for sale once completed so keep an eye out for updates if you are in the market for a new home.

The vans look great!
And that’s a wrap! 🎁
Ben and the team have finished up for the year and will be back in action on the 16th of January next year.
We would like to thank our loyal staff, subcontractors and customers for the support you have given us this year. We literally couldn’t have done it without you!
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, we look forward to catching up with you all in 2023. 🎅🏻🎄

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.2 CommentsComment on Facebook
Fantastic team. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks team. You were sensational. ❤️
Rise Residential organised the design and consent process right through to completion on these two Merivale townhouse bathroom renovations.
Both bathrooms are the same size and layout, but with different fixtures and tiles look quite different. Which do you prefer?

Here are some photos of a recently completed Halswell extension.
On this job we squared off the front of the house adding a new dining area, which linked the separate kitchen with the lounge creating an open plan living space. The old concrete roof tiles were replaced, a second toilet added, new double-glazed windows, an island bench and painting and flooring throughout has refreshed this older home nicely.
Through good planning, not only did we stick to our pre-start construction program, but we completed the work 10 days ahead of schedule.

It’s hard to believe but last Tuesday it was 1 year since we welcomed our apprentice, Tom, to the team. Where has the time gone, he will be qualified builder before we know it at this rate.

Congrats and thank you for 1 year Tom! 🙂
Love the Bunnings trade gear!
Here are some photos of the progress on a new home we are currently working on. These were only taken at the beginning of last week, but this job is moving so quickly that you would think it would have been weeks ago.
It is now wrapped, windows are in, cedar complete, bricks to half height and gib coming to site tomorrow! Keep an eye out for more photos.
