From my first meeting with Corey from CWB Construction I knew that Corey was who I wanted to build my new home. Corey was open and honest and had the ability to take on my high end build. He still had relationships with passed clients who were more than happy for me to be allowed into their home for Corey to show me his work. That speaks for itself. Corey and his team were polite professional with a can-do attitude to get the best possible outcome for my build. Communication was so easy throughout the entire build and still is to this day. If you are after an open honest reliable builder where nothing is a problem then Corey and his team at CWB Construction are the team for your job.

Highly recommend Corey and the team at CWB Construction. Exceptional skills and attention to detail together with precision timing in booking all the other trade services needed, made our house extension journey faultless. It was a pleasure having Corey, Will and all the team at our place creating our amazing new spaces.

As an architectural designer I'd worked with Corey and his team before, so when we needed a builder for our townhouse project I was confident CWB would be up to the task. Corey had two jobs on the go so Steve and Ollie were on our site; they are super quality-conscious and very good at early communication, whether it was checking on how we wanted details done or overseeing the quality of both their work and all the other sub-trades, while Corey was always available for oversight and advice. Covid-19 lockdowns and material delivery problems added another level of complexity and disruption to our project, but I have to give credit to the CWB team who stayed positive, flexible and accommodating to ensure we got a great result in the end. Our thanks to everyone involved!

We chose CWB construction to build an attached minor dwelling and double garage with an upper floor lounge and internal stair case. The build was not straight forward and required a lot of engineering and excavation work. Corey and his team were a dream to deal with. They supplied accurate progress and realistic time frames on their work. Corey's communication was great and nothing seemed to be too hard or too much trouble. The workmanship was awesome and the finished build is something to be proud of. The CWB team were also a very professional unit, helpful and considerate. I would highly recommend Corey and his team at CWB Construction. I did not think that a build of this size would have been so stress less after knowing the scope of work to be carried out. Thanks Corey.

Corey and the Team at CWB Construction took on the build of our new home overlooking Stanmore Bay. As a Draughtsperson myself the design was always going to be a little different from the norm and i'm pleased CWB were on board with the design. Using commercial construction methods like precast flat slab floors and new products like XLAM Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) roof panels may have been off putting for most companies but CWB were the right team for our job. I had always wanted to be "hands on" with the project and had arranged much of the unusual products myself and Corey was flexible with that and offered his expertise where necessary. The rest of the CWB team were all easy to work with even having the Owner working onsite alongside them didn't cause to much of a drama. I've learned a great deal from the experience of building with CWB and while other factors delayed the actual completion of the job Corey has kept in contact to see we are getting there and happy to answer any queries we had. In the end i think our home would not have suited most builders and could have been a very difficult process, with CWB the process was easy and we achieved an icon on the coast!

I wanted to write to you and thank you for the excellent job you have done on the new bathrooms at Settlers Grove, Orewa. This project has been waiting quite some time for the right Builder to come along and we are very grateful that it was you and CWB Construction.This small residential project involved turning one bathroom into two (one of which is en-suite to the Master Bedroom), whilst ensuring the house was able to be lived in throughout. This involved some careful programming, whilst also dealing with the inevitable discoveries inherent in an alteration to an existing property. You probably have a better understanding now of just how particular we are about finished quality and it is a measure of the fine work you have done that we are very satisfied with the two beautiful new bathrooms - they are a real credit to your own standards and your ability to get the best from your sub-contract team. These two lovely rooms will provide pleasure for all who use them for many years to come. We want to record our gratitude for the very accurate quote you prepared for the work and the fair and reasonable way you have administered the contract and charged for the additional scope that was necessary. Whilst the quality of the project work has been extremely important, it has been your very personable approach to working with our family that we have enjoyed so much and for which we are very grateful - we really consider ourselves fortunate to have had such a nice person to work with. We wish you well for the progress of your business and would be very happy to provide a personal reference to any prospective Clients you may have. Thank you again for all your hard work!

My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with CWB Construction for nearly two years during the construction of our new home. The design of the home had a number of challenging aspects, many of which have not been included in house building for decades. The detail and superior craftsmanship evident in the house is a result of Corey and his team’s experience and “can do” attitude. We unreservedly recommend that anyone looking for an efficient, experienced and trustworthy team to take on the challenges of building a new home to contact CWB Construction

I had the pleasure of dealing with Corey and his team when the front of my property was being landscaped. The geography of the land made it a challenging job but Corey managed this expertly. He was courteous, communicative and willingly listened to any ideas or concerns I may have had. They did a fantastic job with the retaining walls, fencing and courtyard. I wouldn't hesitate to use the services of CWB Construction Ltd again.

We chose CWB Construction Ltd after reading reviews on this site and we were definitely not disappointed. Corey and his team replaced a deck for us recently. Corey was great to deal with, very friendly, reliable and professional. He is a perfectionist and his work was completed to an extremely high standard. He acted as Site Manager for us as we live down South , he also organised the balustrade on our behalf and followed up when necessary.

We can't thank Corey and his team enough for the amazing new home they built for us. Corey went above and beyond throughout the build to ensure even the smallest of details were well thought out and executed to the highest standard. He completely took the stress of building away with constant updates and worked with us to ensure our home was exactly what we needed. The workmanship was outstanding and it was the personal touches he added that have made our house a home; I love our custom timber bench tops that he "whipped" up, they add something special we enjoy every day. We would highly recommend CWB to anyone looking to build an amazing home and would happily show off his workmanship in our home any day. Thanks Corey.

Corey and his team are always a pleasure to deal with. Reliable, professional and trustworthy from start to finish and they also display top workmanship. We have used him for renovations around our property, internal & external and he has always completed the jobs to a very high standard and on time. He also has good networks for other tradesman/suppliers that are required on site when completing a project. Corey is very approachable and takes the time to discuss plans/concerns in detail. We highly recommend CWB Construction to all our family and friends and have already lined him up for our next renovation project.

The team were a pleasure to work with. They were well organised and demonstrated excellent advance planning and on-the-job communication so we knew what to expect and when. They showed pride in their work and attention to detail and ensured the site remained clean and tidy. For us it was a great experience and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

We employed the services of Corey and CWB Construction Ltd in 2013 to build our home in Riverhead. This was the first house that we had built so we were on a steep learning curve, one which was made much easier by Corey's ability to help guide us in the right direction and explain things to us in a way which made our decisions simpler. We trusted his guidance when making decisions and he had the ability to help recommend products and design choices that assisted us in achieving continuity of style, resulting in a home that we are extremely happy with. Corey organised many of the subcontractors himself and took on the project management for us which made things work smoothly. During the build, we were impressed with Corey’s attitude to work, his attention to detail and punctuality. He was motivated, easy to talk to and always had things running to schedule, meaning we were able to move in to our home when expected. The other builders employed by Corey also shared his approachability and work ethic and were great to have on site. We would highly recommend Corey and CWB Construction Ltd to anyone looking to build in the future!

We have had several pieces of work completed at our property ranging from decking, fences, retaining and shelving. In every instance the jobs were completed to a very high standard and always within budget. Corey is a perfectionist and comes up with some fantastic ideas to ensure the best possible outcome. His attention to detail is second to none and we would have no hesitation (and have) recommending him to any prospective clients.

Highly recommended builder. The owner Corey Woodward was referred to us at very short notice to build our home, almost 5,000 sq ft. Corey would in my opinion rate as the best trades person we had on this job, keeping an eye out for us, re other trades people, very knowledgeable, excellent workmanship, forward thinking, taking the time to work things out, helpful, honest and not one single problem that normally occurs when building. We are very proud of our home and our thanks to Corey for the effort he and his staff put into our home.
- Mike Ironside, Kumeu -
Corey Woodward was one of two main contractors who built our new home and constructed every element above the concrete slab. Corey's workmanship was of the highest standard. Corey is a good listener and gets things done on time - a rare trait in a builder. I would be happy to give a personal reference to any client.

We chose CWB Construction for an extensive addition to our home. This included a new master bedroom, ensuite, walk in wardrobe, new entry, dining room, decks, railing and stairs, partial reclad of existing walls, new double glazed windows throughout and new a roof. We found Corey and his team to be excellent tradesmen, with great work ethic and I noted that they have good timeliness, and can be relied upon to turn up on time, we found them to be completely trustworthy given that they were often left in the house unattended. We were living in the house while the renovation was in progress. The builders were courteous, tidy and safe in their work place. They worked very efficiently and we commend them on the high standard of work and finishing details that they produced. Corey managed the whole project for us, and kept it to budget as best he could. The sub trades sort by corey were also great to deal with and turned up on time. We would highly recommend CWB Construction for any renovation work or new builds.
