" Lance and his team have just completed our new home. We only decided to build after we had seen two of Lance’s previous houses. We had located and ideal section but we only bought it once we knew Lance was available for the project.We required a total project management package and without this we would not have undertaken the project.

The decision was based on knowing what Doyle Group could produce but also after several meetings with Lance where he went over the process and what he and his team offered. We can confirm that when Lance says he will manage the job and sort out matters as they arise he is true to his word. We grew increasingly comfortable with the way issues were resolved as the house progressed.

We have no reservation in recommending Lance and his team for any new home or major renovation project. All we can say is that our decision to have Doyle Group build our home has been vindicated by the result they have delivered.

Their workmanship and attitude are exceptional."

“We’ve been in our house for five years now and are still in awe of how great it turned out, finding Lance was an incredible stroke of luck and good fortune in our home building experience. We met with several builders before meeting Lance through a mutual friend, we knew immediately we had found the person to build our new home....” “You often hear horror stories of people building a house however we could not have asked for a better experience....through the entire process Lance with his professional experienced attitude listened to our needs and plans and then worked diligently to find ways to make those ideas become reality” “finally it was fantastic to find a builder who started and finished the project on time and under budget”.

John & Evelyn Harris

“On time, on budget and well built. Cant ask for more than that!”
“we have recommended you to a number of friends who are looking to renovate or build new. And you will be doing our next build if your not to busy with our friends projects.

Vern & Marian Hines

“Purchasing off the plans we were very surprised at the ease with which the project was carried out and completed...having done renovations and alterations to previous homes in the past , we were expecting four months of anguish-we can say this never happened” We had weekly project meetings on site , this gave us the opportunity to give input and get the things built into the home that we required..... As important as getting it right the first time, is the knowledge that Doyle Group is a local company with a person of integrity behind it....as we settled into the home , Lance has always been available to check anything that we were unsure of... So again, thanks for a fantastic experience with our home and we look forward to building again with Doyle Homes”

We chose Lance Doyle of Doyle Group to manage the program of demolishing our old Bach on Waiheke Island and building the new one. Having engaged a local architect who worked with us from concept through to fully developed design and the consenting process, we looked for a builder who could meet our quality expectations, budget parameters and importantly complete the project in a timely manner.

Having identified Lance independently as someone who exhibited a track record that met out criteria, we further reassured to find that we knew the owners of the beautiful home that he had just finished. Their testimonial gave us additional confidence.

Overall we are extremely pleased with our decision to go with Doyle Group, the process and end result have been superb. We wish we’d known Lance last time we built.

Taking a collaborative approach we found Lance and his site manager Kelly fit our style as we developed a partnership, with open communication, joint decision making and problem resolution that ideally suits the dynamics of a fast track demolish and rebuild project. Building on the island meant we could only inspect progress or consider options each weekend, highlighting the importance of communication and trust.

Finding a builder who delivers what he says he will, on time and within budget and who takes a real attention to quality details is uncommon. The Doyle Group met this standard and built a wonderful home that we couldn’t be happier with.

Based on our experience throughout our project, we confidently recommend Lance and his team to those who are planning to build.

Having lived part time in the home for the past 6 months including much use over the Christmas holiday period, I can say we our totally satisfied. All our visitors have been highly complementary of the quality and finish as well as the stylish modern design.

After 3 months use, we recognised that we wished we had made one of the decks a little larger, and even though Doyle Group had left the site several months earlier, asking them to come back and make one extension to the deck in question was no problem-all completed without any hassle. In our experience Doyle Group are straight up, pragmatic and easy to deal with. We’d be happy to discuss out project with any prospective client considering using Lance and Doyle Group.
