About Cochrane Builders
At Cochrane Builders, we’re more than just a building company—we’re a family with a passion for creating homes and spaces that truly matter. Locally owned and proudly based in the Tasman region, our roots in the building industry run deep. During the past 11 years, we’ve built over 17 beautiful new homes and worked on many other projects—each a testament to our commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and our clients.
We started Cochrane Builders with a simple goal: to deliver high-quality craftsmanship with a personal touch. Being a family-run business, we know that building or renovating isn’t just about bricks and timber—it’s about creating a space where life happens. Whether it’s a new build to raise a family, a renovation to refresh a beloved home, or an outdoor area to entertain friends, we’re here to bring your ideas to life with care and attention to detail.
Every project we take on is unique, and we treat it that way. We don’t do cookie-cutter solutions because we understand that no two families or businesses are the same. From the moment you reach out to us, we take the time to really understand what you need. It’s not just about delivering on the job—it’s about making sure you feel heard and involved every step of the way.
Our experience has taught us the value of honesty and reliability. We provide clear, accurate quotes and communicate openly throughout the entire process. Our clients know they can trust us to stick to our word, whether it’s about timelines, budgets, or the little details that make all the difference.
As locals, we’re proud to know and serve the Tasman community. We understand the unique character of the area and the kinds of homes and spaces that work here. That local knowledge, combined with years of hands-on experience, allows us to bring a level of insight and expertise to every project we undertake.
We’re not a large, faceless company—and we don’t want to be. Being a small business gives us the freedom to focus on what really matters: quality, relationships, and delivering results we’re proud of. At Cochrane Builders, we see our clients as partners in the process, and nothing makes us happier than handing over a finished project that exceeds expectations.
So, whether you’re dreaming of a new home, updating your current space, or planning an outdoor area to make the most of the Tasman lifestyle, we’d love to hear from you. Let’s sit down and talk about how we can bring your vision to life.
