About us

Practical Building Solutions is owned and run by licensed building practitioner Jamie Boyle.

Jamie's love of building started early – aged four.

All it took was meeting a tradesman who fixed his mum’s state house and wowed Jamie and his three brothers with magic tricks and good humour at the same time. “I was impressed with what he did and how he did it – even at that early age. He showed a warmth towards us that made a lasting impression on me. “That’s what I want to give my customers – excellent building solutions from a team who genuinely enjoy what they do and the people they work for.” After more than 15 years in the building industry, Jamie is excited to offer the Wellington region practical building solutions founded on:

exceptional teamwork
full service approach
real-price approach
excellent customer service.

Exceptional teamwork

Every successful design and build project relies on exceptional teamwork – the team at Practical Building Solutions is case in point.
Led by Jamie, the team can offer you the range of skills and experience needed to get the job done.
We do architectural design, project management, building, construction and sub-contracting. We also offer a 24-hour emergency repairs and maintenance service.
Just as important – we are honest, efficient and qualified to work to the highest professional standards. We’re big on integrity too.
 

Full service approach

We will manage your project from start to finish by tapping into the professionals and tradespeople within the Practical Building Solutions network.
Everyone comes with Jamie’s personal stamp of approval and offers great value for money.
We’ll take care of all the communication, work scheduling and billing – easy!

​

Real-price approach

At Practical Building Solutions, our aim is to make sure our prices are well understood and agreed to before any work gets under way.
We achieve this by understanding your needs from the outset and finding the budget to suit your project.
Once your project gets started, we will monitor your project costs on a daily basis and let you know exactly where things are at.
If we find any problems that need attention, we’ll let you know what they are and the different ways to solve them within budget.
We also promise to come back and repair anything that is not quite right within 12 months of starting a project together.
We call this our real-price approach.

​

Excellent customer service

Finally, it is our goal to offer you the best in customer service.
We believe this means being good (really good) at what we do and bringing our A game to your project.
It means we will listen to you, price to your budget, give you good advice and manage your project professionally.
We’ll give you one point of contact and we’ll be open and transparent in our communication with you.
We will act with integrity and honesty every time we are in your house, your workplace or on your worksite.
