Maximise Your Property's Potential With Auckland's Dedicated Conversions Builder

At Reliable Building, we specialise in transforming underutilised spaces into valuable living areas. Our owner-builders personally oversee every conversion project from Central Auckland to the Bombays, ensuring exceptional quality from demolition to finishing touches.

Conversion Excellence With Practical Advantages

When you choose Reliable Building for your space conversion, you're partnering with Auckland builders who bring tangible benefits to your project:

  • We own and operate our own earthworks equipment for efficient site work and material handling

  • Our hands-on owners maintain a physical presence throughout your entire conversion

  • We never compromise on material quality or craftsmanship

  • We coordinate trusted trades who deliver consistent quality results

  • We take full ownership of any issues without passing costs to you

The Equipment Advantage For Your Conversion

  • We don't just bring our expertise to your site—we bring our own earthworks equipment too. This provides significant advantages for your space conversion:

  • Efficient removal of existing structures without damaging your property

  • Precise site preparation for new foundations or floor levels

  • Safe movement of heavy materials around tight spaces (our equipment can access areas as narrow as 900mm)

  • Reduced waiting times and delays that plague many conversion projects

  • Lower risk of damage to existing structures during the conversion process

This equipment advantage translates directly into smoother timelines and better outcomes for your space transformation.

Conversion Solutions That Add Real Value

Whether you're looking to convert a garage, basement, attic, or other underutilised space, our conversion expertise covers:

  • Garage to living space conversions that create additional bedrooms or living areas

  • Basement conversions that unlock valuable square meterage

  • Attic and loft conversions that maximise your property's potential

  • Outbuilding conversions that create home offices or guest accommodation

  • Open plan conversions that transform outdated layouts into modern living spaces

We approach each conversion with careful planning, recognising that the key to success is ensuring the new space functions perfectly while integrating seamlessly with your existing home.

Garage Conversions:
Unlock Hidden Potential

Converting your garage into a functional living space is one of the most cost-effective ways to add value to your home. Our approach to garage conversions includes:

  • Proper insulation and moisture control to create a comfortable living environment

  • Structural modifications to ensure the space meets building code requirements

  • Flooring solutions that address the typical concrete slab issues in garages

  • Window and door installations that bring natural light into the space

  • Electrical and plumbing additions to support the new function of the room

With our own earthworks equipment on site, we can efficiently handle any excavation needed for drainage or services, ensuring your garage conversion proceeds without the delays that often plague these projects.

Basement Conversions:
Transform Unused Space

  • Basement conversions require special attention to moisture control and ventilation. Our expertise in this area includes:

  • Thorough assessment of existing moisture issues before beginning work

  • Proper waterproofing and drainage solutions to ensure a dry living space

  • Structural reinforcement where necessary

  • Creative solutions for natural light and emergency egress

  • Heating and ventilation systems that create a comfortable environment

Our hands-on approach and equipment advantage mean we can address the unique challenges of basement conversions efficiently and effectively.

Our Conversion Process:
Structured And Thorough

From initial consultation to final handover, we maintain clear communication about timelines, costs and progress. Our methodical approach ensures nothing is overlooked during your conversion journey.

While we don't personally handle specialised trades like waterproofing, painting or electrical work, we've built strong relationships with trusted partners who meet our exacting standards. As experienced builders, we know exactly what quality work looks like and won't accept anything less for your conversion project.

The Reliable Building Conversion Difference

What truly sets us apart is our commitment to being physically present on your conversion site with the right equipment. This hands-on approach allows us to:

  • Immediately address any issues that arise during the conversion process

  • Ensure materials are correctly delivered, stored and moved

  • Keep trades accountable for their work quality

  • Make informed decisions quickly without delays

  • Prevent mistakes before they become costly problems

When the owners are actively involved in your conversion with their own machinery, there's simply no place for cutting corners or passing problems back to you. That's the peace of mind that comes with choosing Reliable Building.

FAQs About
Space Conversions

  • We start by understanding your vision and assessing the existing space. Once we've developed a clear scope, we provide a comprehensive quote based on our detailed checklist system. Throughout the conversion, our owners are physically present on-site, overseeing every aspect and using our own earthworks equipment when needed. Unlike volume builders who delegate supervision, we maintain direct owner involvement from demolition to finishing touches.

  • When issues arise (as they often do in conversion work), we identify problems immediately thanks to our on-site presence, develop practical solutions without cutting corners, implement fixes promptly using our own equipment, and communicate transparently about any implications. Most importantly, we don't push mistakes back onto clients—a practice we've unfortunately seen become common with other builders.

  • We handle everything from garage conversions to basement transformations, attic conversions, and open plan reconfigurations. Our versatility allows us to adapt to your specific requirements while maintaining our quality standards regardless of project complexity. We're particularly skilled at ensuring converted spaces feel like natural extensions of your home rather than afterthoughts.

  • Our quality control stems from having owner-builders physically present on-site, using our own earthworks equipment for demolition and material handling, maintaining relationships with reliable suppliers rather than choosing the cheapest options, implementing a comprehensive checklist system, and addressing issues immediately. This hands-on approach gives us direct control over quality standards from start to finish.

  • While we can work anywhere in Auckland, we specialise in conversion projects throughout Central, South, and East Auckland—from the city centre to the Bombays. This focused service area allows us to maintain strong relationships with local suppliers, develop in-depth knowledge of council requirements, respond quickly with our own equipment, and provide consistent quality without overextending our resources.

Your home deserves builders who care as much about the quality as you do.
