Our approach <\/span><\/h3><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
The Brant Design and Build process has six key steps \u2013 all designed to help the team co-create your dream, get some images down on paper, provide it with shape and texture and then evolve it into something real, something you can see with your eyes \u2013 not just your mind. This is the art of true design.<\/p>\n

You might have already purchased a section, are looking to subdivide your current property, or we can help you find the perfect site. We\u2019ll evaluate the site so we can maximise the layout of your new home. We can also help you navigate through any restrictions on the land if you are building in a new subdivision. We may even suggest a survey of the site or a geotechnical report (at client\u2019s cost) is necessary so that we can identify and resolve any problems before the plans go to Council for consent.

This stage is all about inspiration. You might have a scrapbook of ideas, photographs, sketches, pages torn out of magazines, or even just a home that you have seen and liked \u2013 these all help to start to shape your future home.<\/p>\n
Simple questions help us understand your preferred style or theme:<\/p>\n
\n
\u2018When you are relaxing at home what sort of a space do you want around you?\u2019<\/li>\n
\u2018Do you like timber or stone?\u2019<\/li>\n
\u2018Do you like larger or more intimate spaces?\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Take a look through our inspiration gallery<\/a> for ideas.<\/p>\n
We walk you through each step to create a detailed design brief.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Creating the design theme<\/strong><\/p>\n
Once we have developed a design theme, we can then start work on your layout or floor plan. We think about how you want to live in your home \u2013 both now and in the future.<\/p>\n
\n
What sort of flow do you want? Which spaces (both inside and out) are important to you?<\/li>\n
How do you want to move around your home?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This stage typically takes 2 \u2013 3 hours, and we will never rush you.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”40px” el_class=”space-mobile-hide”][vc_single_image image=”947″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”42px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css_animation=”fadeInLeft” css=”.vc_custom_1528413555804{background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}” el_class=”step-1-row”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”Step 3″ font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ css_animation=”fadeInLeft” el_class=”brant-way-steps”][vc_single_image image=”948″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”40px” el_class=”space-mobile-hide”][vc_custom_heading text=”Concept Plan” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%233d286f” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal” css_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]We\u2019ll create a draft concept plan for you to review. This is where your dream starts to take shape! Your sketched floor plan may include exterior views and 3D images too. We are passionate about making sure you end up with the right design \u2013 so sometimes the first plan is spot-on, and other times we may need to review and refine. We will work closely with you to ensure you get the perfect plan.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Defining the Unique Features of Your Home<\/strong><\/p>\n
Once we have the floor plan sorted, we\u2019ll work with you to define the key features of your home. This includes cladding, roof materials, window and door designs, heating options and of course everyone\u2019s favourite part: kitchen design and fittings, and bathroom fixtures and fittings. We can even start thinking about your soft furnishings. All of these elements start to bring your home to life, and helps us to create a specification for your home that can then be priced.<\/p>\n
The Brant Team is committed to supporting and growing New Zealand businesses, and we\u2019ve worked hard over many years to establish relationships with local suppliers who share our commitment to high quality products and services. We are also able to source \u2018hard to find\u2019 products internationally if there is something you like that we cannot source locally.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”42px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css_animation=”fadeInRight” css=”.vc_custom_1528413799992{background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}” el_class=”step-1-row”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”Step 4″ font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ css_animation=”fadeInRight” el_class=”brant-way-steps”][vc_custom_heading text=”Working Drawings” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%233d286f” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal” css_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]We work with our Architectural Designers and Engineers to prepare working drawings for you. These are used to apply to the Council for Building Consent. You\u2019ll be relieved to know we manage this consent process on your behalf! The Brant Team work very closely with the Council Officers to ensure that the approval process is smooth and efficient.<\/p>\n
During this phase we also take the opportunity to start working on the interior colours and finalise the remaining details of your home. We are then ready to start work as soon as the consent is issued.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”40px” el_class=”space-mobile-hide”][vc_single_image image=”925″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”42px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css_animation=”fadeInLeft” css=”.vc_custom_1528413555804{background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}” el_class=”step-1-row”][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”Step 5″ font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ css_animation=”fadeInLeft” el_class=”brant-way-steps”][vc_single_image image=”926″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”40px” el_class=”space-mobile-hide”][vc_custom_heading text=”Contractuals” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%233d286f” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal” css_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]When the plan, specifications and the price have been agreed, we then prepare a Registered Master Builders contract and we are underway!\u00a0If you are undecided on certain design aspects, we can provide for this in the contract with a PC sum.

Our contract provides you with a Master Build Guarantee, Building Warranties and a clear payment schedule based on staged payments.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”42px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css_animation=”fadeInRight” css=”.vc_custom_1528413799992{background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}” el_class=”step-1-row”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”Step 6″ font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ css_animation=”fadeInRight” el_class=”brant-way-steps”][vc_custom_heading text=”The Build” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%233d286f” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal” css_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]We pride ourselves on having the best build team in Auckland and typically can start work on a new project within 4 weeks of a building consent being issued.<\/p>\n
Your Brant Team is made up of a dedicated team of Master Builders and sub trades who have worked together successfully for many years. Each member of the team knows how important the project is to each owner, and works hard to ensure that the work they do is done to the highest standard.<\/p>\n
The length of time to build an average house depends on lots of things. The weather in Auckland can make a big difference! We will sit down with you and take you through a comprehensive schedule of work prior to starting. Depending on the design, we normally expect to finish a home and hand over a new set of front door keys within 6-8 months of starting work.
