About Viliami Halalilo (Villy)
Villy grew up in a large, extended family and learnt very early on, the importance of home, family and the memories created there. He is eternally grateful for the family and friends that surrounded him in those early years and feels blessed for many aspects of his life and the people he has met along the way.
And so Villy is driven, not to build houses, but to create homes where families and friends make happy memories together. That’s why he takes time to get to know clients, to discover the little things that make each person individual. He incorporates special elements in each build – little things that resonate with the owners so on day one, and in years to come, they can say, “I love my home”.
Villy learned his trade the old-school way in New Zealand 25 years ago. Unlike other tradesmen who specialise in one skill, Villy learned to do everything from design to delivery. And he has adopted his grandfather’s philosophy: “Do it once, do it right”.
Villy is a tireless worker. Yet he always finds time to chat with clients about what’s happening in their lives. He shows this same care for every member of our team. And when he’s not building, he loves nothing more than spending time with Alana and their 3 children.
Naturally, he is also fully qualified:
About Alana McLean
Like Villy, Alana has years of experience in construction. She was practically born on a building site – her father was an electrician and property developer. She follows his philosophy: It’s good to start things, but it’s most important to see them through to the finish too.
Alana’s career accelerated in administration and management where she honed her skills in planning and project management. She is a self-confessed perfectionist with a keen ability to manage the finer details, whilst focusing on the larger picture – precisely the skills you want overseeing your building project.
She has a happy, positive personality and a high commitment to prompt and open communication, transparency, and honesty – the perfect partner to Villy, in business and in life.
How We Help You Get A Custom Timber Home That Is Worthy Of The Memories You Will Make There

With over 25 years of traditional ‘on the tools’ knowledge and experience, we will help you refine your design, and bring it to life with a stunning timber home you’ll absolutely love.

Communication
Log on to our project management software for up to date information on your home so you always know what’s going on. Villy will be onsite for a substantial part of the build to answer your questions (and have a chat). And naturally, we will return your phone calls and emails promptly.
