  • "I have 35 years experience as a residential developer in NZ. It's so refreshing to meet a main contractor with the calibre of Tim Iro of Alite Construction. Tim is experienced, honest, practical and has the initiative to make things happen on site and with sub contractors. Tim is always on site and on the tools. I found Tim and his team very professional to deal with – site was always tidy, issues were raised immediately and his admin with councils, architects and other consultants made for a dream project. Very happy to recommend Tim to anyone contemplating a residential or commercial building project."

    — Mike Mahoney

  • "Tim has built two houses for us. It was a no-brainer to choose Tim for our second build as we were so delighted with him during the first build. We felt that we worked well together to achieve our dreams each time, an actual team of owners and builder working together, quite unique we think. There were NO PROBLEMS whatsoever. Tim was always available to explain and suggest, if necessary, and it was very educational listening to him explaining requirements and techniques to his staff/apprentices. This certainly gave us the confidence to know that we were getting the best workmanship available. We also know others who Tim has built for and everyone, without exception, has been delighted and impressed with his workmanship and work ethic. If we ever decided to build again Tim would be our first and only choice to do the build."

  • "It was a pleasure to work with Tim and his team on our new build. Every detail was well executed. We're thrilled with our new home."
