Too many Kiwi homes have problems, including dampness, mould, draughts, poor materials and poor air flow – and are cold in winter and increasingly now overheat in summer.  Research shows significant impacts on our health, with high levels of childhood asthma and respiratory disease.  

The New Zealand Building Code standards are at least 20 years behind international best practice.  If it’s time to upgrade your existing home, our Renovation Design Guide has advice and information on how to get the most out of your renovation, showing the most common house types and explaining the challenges and solutions for each.


Are we doing the different eras of the renos? If so will need the breakdowns for starters. Then images/examples of each, hopefully we have examples from the tours etc??? Maybe for starters we have a brief introduction for each category and some key things to look out for, ie what are the major potential problems to look for, or the easy fixes etc.

CASE STUDIES

Would CASE STUDIES BE GOOD FOR THESE? Maybe we start with one or two and continually add/update as we go. Nice if we could get the input of the homeowners as well as the designer, builder, etc etc.
