Master Builder & Design Specialist

About the Director

With over 20 years of hands-on experience as a qualified carpenter and project manager, Nigel Watson brings a master craftsman's perspective to every home he builds. His philosophy is grounded in a down-to-earth, transparent approach, ensuring clients are guided with integrity through every stage of the design-build process.

For Nigel, the greatest reward is translating a family's vision into a tangible reality. He founded his Waikato-based team on the principle that no two homes should be the same, specializing in creating unique, individually-designed homes that are a perfect fit for the client's land and lifestyle. This commitment to customisation is central to his work, rejecting "cookie-cutter" solutions in favour of architectural homes with genuine character and purpose.

Nigel is personally involved in overseeing the design and construction of every project, ensuring a seamless and accountable experience from the first sketch to the final handover. This hands-on leadership guarantees that the high standards he sets are met, delivering a home that is not only beautifully designed but also built with enduring quality.

A Process Built on Certainty

"We planed to buy a house and viewed some homes recently. Landmark home is really attractive. We contacted landmark to ask the process of building one initially, but the time will be much longer than buying existing one. So finally we purchased a landmark bulit existing house. Really nice Lanmark staff and excellent building."

— Peter Chen, Waikato

A Vision, Perfectly Realised

— M Harvey, Hamilton

More Than Just a Builder

"Building a home of this scale requires immense trust. From our first meeting, we knew we were dealing with a team that valued integrity as much as craftsmanship. They were our partners throughout the entire journey."

— Dr. Sarah Mitchell, Hamilton
