The Future is Green
Rod Percival Builders attributes their success to maintaining a commitment to outstanding quality, exceptional service and promoting industry innovation.
Green Building is a trend that is sweeping the world at the moment. It's about being aware of the environment and materials around us, sensitive to the products and services we use and the reduction of fossil fuels and non-renewable resources. Rod Percival Builders are putting this into action, using environmentally friendly products, recycled timber, double glazing and solar energy.
Rod travelled to New Mexico, USA to research Green Building techniques and has brought these ideas back to New Zealand and plans to adapt them to suit our environment and resource capability. "We must make changes now. Building isn't about putting up a house; it's about creating homes that keep us safe, our environment safe and our families healthy. We need to wash our hands of leaky homes, shoddy workmanship and cowboy builders".
We're proud to be a member of the New Zealand Green Building Council since 2006
