Building Dreams in Whangārei

At Urban Edge Building, we bring your vision to life. With a focus on quality and community, we’re here to craft spaces you’ll love for years to come. Whether it’s a new build, a renovation, or that dream deck, we’re in your corner.

Our Core Values

At the heart of our work are three guiding principles: Quality, Integrity, and Community. We believe in doing things right the first time, being honest in all we do, and giving back to the regions we serve. Each project we take on reflects these values.

Health & Saftey

At Urban Edge, we believe great building work isn’t just about quality finishes — it’s also about keeping everyone safe on site.

Health & Safety is at the heart of how we operate. From day one, we’ve committed to meeting all New Zealand building and safety standards, and making sure our worksites are secure for our team, our clients, and the community.

Here’s what that means in practice:

Certified Practices – We follow NZ building codes and WorkSafe requirements on every job.
Safe Worksites – We keep sites tidy, secure, and clearly marked, whether we’re building a deck, framing a house, or renovating a family kitchen.
Protective Gear – Our team uses the right equipment and PPE for every task.
Communication First – We brief clients on safety measures before work begins and keep them updated throughout the project.
Zero Compromise – No shortcuts. We’d rather take an extra step than risk someone’s safety.

For us, safety isn’t just compliance — it’s respect for our team, our clients, and their families.

We’re Werner and Alex – brother-in-laws, qualified builders, and proud Northland locals.

With 20 years’ experience between us, we decided it was time to back ourselves and start Urban Edge Builders.

Why? Simple: we love what we do, and we wanted to bring that personal, family touch to every job.

Whether it’s a new deck for summer BBQs, a full renovation, or a brand new build, we treat every project like it’s our own. We know building can feel overwhelming, but we keep it straight-up, honest, and stress-free. No mucking around – just solid workmanship, clear communication, and results that last. At the end of the day, we’re just two lads who love turning ideas into reality.

Your build, our craft.
