At BK Patterson, we’re proud to be a family-owned business with two generations of builders leading the way. Brent and Kristina Patterson started the company over 35 years ago with a tight-knit crew of three. Today, we’ve grown, but the heart of our business remains the same—and some of those original team members are still with us, building alongside the next generation.
Nic Patterson, Brent and Kristina’s son, took the reins in 2018, continuing the family legacy. Starting as an apprentice in 2004, Nic worked his way up, gaining hands-on experience and a deep understanding of the trade. Under his leadership, BK Patterson has grown beyond residential builds, expanding into earthworks and commercial fit-outs while staying true to the values that built the business.
Today, our team operates from our Lower Hutt yard which is complete with a joinery workshop, storage area for materials, office, and meeting space to discuss your project. When you visit our yard, you may also get a glimpse of our full fleet of machinery and vehicles.
If you’re looking for a full-service building partner, we tick all the right boxes and are fully equipped to get the job done. We have a team of experienced and qualified builders, joiners and tradesmen, and a fleet of machinery that are ready for action.
From building new homes, commercial fit-outs, renovations, and alterations through to earthworks and landscaping – we do projects of all sizes. We work across the Wellington region, including the Hutt Valley, Kapiti and Wairarapa.
We offer an end-to-end service, meaning that we’re with you from the initial design meeting through to the final walk through. This provides consistency and enables you to tap into our vast knowledge and expertise. You can also count on us for excellent communication along the way.
We know that building projects can be stressful and we strive to make it an enjoyable and exciting experience for you.
We have a fantastic team of more than 30 experienced and qualified construction professionals – including a project manager, in-house joiner, tradesmen, apprentices, hammer hand and subcontractors. Keeping our team running like a well-oiled machine is our administration staff. They take care of the behind-the-scenes so that we can focus on your project.
