NZ Builders is a general contractor specializing in luxury, custom high-performance homes across North America.
Established in 2004, we’ve built a reputation for high quality, expert craftsmanship, and innovation in design and building science — creating sustainable, passive solar homes that consider energy efficiency and are designed to support your long-term health and comfort.
Wain Road, Victoria, BC
This home was constructed using structural concrete insulated panel (SCIP) building technology, using a tilt-up method, which at the time was unique to the residential building industry in Canada.
Beach Drive, Victoria, BC
This industrial-inspired, high performance design boasts some of the most diverse concrete finishes we've seen—one entire exterior panel features a life size image of a Garry oak tree, taken by the homeowners and etched permanently into the concrete.
Salt Spring Island, BC
A passive-inspired concrete home built entirely off-grid using solar power alone. Designed using passive and active solar energy, rainwater collection, and a permaculture landscape, this home is entirely self-sufficient.
Sunshine Coast.
A passive concrete home designed to be warm in the winter months and cool in the summer months using the thermal mass of the concrete to regulate heat all year long and 7' overhangs to provide ample shading when you need it.
EXPERIENCE THE WARMTH OF PASSIVE SOLAR DESIGN
NZ Builders believes in using intentional design that leverages solar energy to naturally heat and cool your home. This produces a comfortable, consistent temperature while reducing energy costs.
We are proponents of using products such as steel, wood and concrete in passive solar design.
Look at the masonry of UK pubs and castles — many built over 1,000 years ago and still standing strong. These buildings are here to stay.
