"Exceeded our expectations"

Matt from MIB Contracting was professional and thorough from the outset. He has an extensive skillset and knowledge, and was able to guide our decision making and bring our vision to life. His attention to detail and workmanship was exemplary. The finished product exceeded our expectations and we have since recommended Matt to several of our friends and family.

–Matt & Vicky Thomson – Maruia, NZ

"Matt has the ability to share a vision we've had and then add value"

"We would highly recommend him for any building work"

We had Matt do a renovation on our shed into a self-contained unit. He was very efficient, and his workmanship was very tidy which made the jobs for the sub trades (which he organised), very easy. We chose Matt as I went to school with him years earlier and had good recommendations from some other school friends that used him. His price was also very good too!! We would highly recommend him for any building work.



–David & Emma Neylon – Woodend, NZ

Matt has done an amazing job on a number of projects for us over the past few years. He’s built an awesome deck, laid a driveway, built a gate, custom made a beautiful bookshelf and replaced weatherboards. Matt brings professionalism and creativity to every project. He works efficiently and to a very high standard. We highly recommend Matt.



–Penny & Andrew Campbell – UK/St Albans, NZ

"Matt has done an amazing job on a number of projects for us over the past few years"

"Very easy to work with and gives any problems or ideas a great deal of thought and offers options that will work"

Matt renovated our cottage, including recladding, relining, reroofing, replacing anything rotten, repiling and flooring where necessary. He is very easy to work with and gives any problems or ideas a great deal of thought and offers options that will work, making the process appear easy.  We live in a remote area that makes it difficult to access different trade people needed for renovating a house. 

If Matt can't find someone to come and do a job he will up skill himself to be able to complete the job himself.  He is very thorough. The transformation of our cottage, we didn't have the vision to see what it could be, a derelict old uninhabited farm cottage, to the truly beautiful restful place it is now.

Matt had completed some work for us many years ago when he was just starting out as a builder, and we enjoyed working with him, and probably wouldn’t have tackled our cottage project without having Matt on board, he was both builder and project manager.
