The Sentinel Homes ‘Design and Build’ approach is about giving you a home that is unique to you and your family. Designed for how you live. No cookie cutter homes around here. We can approach your project in a couple of ways:
If you’re looking for something completely custom, we’ll guide you through the design process from floor plans to finishings - the only limit is your imagination. Bring along your ideas and inspiration and work with our team to come up with something that is uniquely yours.
Or, perhaps you’d prefer the inspiration of one of our many existing plans? This can be the springboard from which to design your dream home. All plans can be modified in any way to suit you. Extra bedroom? Easy. Larger kitchen and living? No problem. A home office or art studio? Consider it done.
With Sentinel Homes, no two houses are ever the same!
Choose from hundreds of proven existing plans you can customise to fit your family.

As a certified builder with 13+ years of experience in the construction industry, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my work. Born and raised in Whangarei, I have honed my craft over the years, building and managing homes of various sizes and styles, ranging from small coastal beach houses in Northland to large-scale heritage-listed homes in London.
My passion for building, combined with my skills and attributes, allows me to construct homes of exceptional quality and beauty. The satisfaction I derive from seeing a happy client at the end of each project is immeasurable, and my goal is always to turn my clients' ideas and dreams into a reality.
I am a resident of Whangarei, where I live with my partner Megan, daughter Winnie, and our furry baby Mosely. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, watching my daughter grow and explore the many wonders that Northland has to offer.
