David Wraight Cottages & Transportable Homes

Experience the difference

About Us

The company consists of David, and wife Kirsty, in partnership with DW and AM Gee Builders and a close knit building team of six.

David Wraight Cottages is a small team that work together and have a very supportive team of subcontractors. Designing and building character homes for over 20 years. David Wraight Cottages began building smaller cottages and as systems progressed, moved on to villas and larger character homes and homesteads. Through all of the building changes and OSH requirements, along with earthquakes and engineering processes, it has now drawn us back full circle to building smaller transportable cottages in a yard.

The two Dave's have well over 60 years experience in building between them, and still retain the old fashioned carpentry values of doing the majority of the work themselves. eg. making their own frames, roofing, fitting their own kitchens and showers and much much more, even down to making their own decorative scrolls.

David Wraight Cottages is not a big company, but we are expanding our range all the time. David will sit down with the customer to talk about their needs and will design and price their home. We keep customers well informed with what is going on, and ensuring to stay within their budget.

We do panelled ceilings and a mix of panelled and grooved walls to give the authentic look of yesterday. This makes the homes warmer and more durable. We believe that our cottages represent the charm and elegance of old New Zealand and this will always hold good resale value. Our clients have often told us that it is easy to on-sell one of our homes, a fact we are proud of.

PLEASE NOTE: to visit our yard for viewings or discussion, an appointment must be made. Please be aware, as we are a manufacturing building yard, no minors under 15 years of age are allowed on site.
