About Us
EDL Builders - An eye for detail, a problem solving mindset, and the ability to get the job done.
Eli Lavery

I have always had a desire to create and make things and started my apprenticeship straight out of school in the mid-2000s. 

As a builder I am motivated to work with local, and new to the area, families and help turn their dreams and aspirations into reality. I love building bespoke homes and renovations for families on the Hauraki Plains and surrounding areas, it’s incredibly rewarding delivering a high quality finished product for every satisfied client. 

Connecting each client with their perfect home and helping achieve each individual need is something I am passionate about and can accomplish, in both a personable and enjoyable way. With bulk builders or large teams many of the finer details are lost during construction due to unnecessary haste or poor communication with a client. Our goal is always to deliver on the desired outcome without compromise to quality or functionality. 

Each new build and renovation will be managed from start to finish with the client being fully informed throughout – nothing overlooked, no surprises. We are flexible on the construction approach, from Full Contract to Labour only and anywhere in-between.  

Our builders love the challenge, I am always striving to stay on top of the latest building industry trends and techniques. With EDL Builders you can expect a team of qualified, passionate builders who are reliable, honest, and hard-working. We are not a volume-based builder, so each of our clients gets a lot of personal attention and we will provide practical and stylish solutions to the many twists and turns which can happen during a building project – a home deserves to be enjoyed so we are here to make sure you can once the job is done. 

We are best known for our hands-on approach and quality of craft: the beautiful end product, stylish interiors and our easy communication throughout each new-home build. 

Excellent communication is key to a successful new build.... I will be personally available to you throughout the build to ensure your build is a success!

What our clients say:

" It was a pleasure to have EDL Builders do our renovations. Nothing was too much trouble and they communicated any changes/issues clearly. EDL Builders are very experienced and they suggested we make changes to plans/products that had known issues. This saved us both time and money! "
Close, Paeroa
" We had the pleasure of working with EDL builders in completing our new home in Ngatea and we could not be happier with the final result. Eli’s attention to detail and love of what he does is evident in the quality of our home. He was always easy to communicate with and provided regular updates throughout the build process to keep us informed along the way. Whenever we needed to make minor changes to our original plans Eli had helpful ideas on how best to implement these and was very accommodating. We have no hesitation in recommending EDL builders for those wanting a high quality finish and to work with a true professional in the building industry."
Carters, Ngatea
