Josh was fantastic! He showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the job, and did excellent work. Everything was finished to a high standard, and he left the place clean and tidy. On top of that, he’s a really nice guy — easy to deal with and reliable. Highly recommend!

— Amy C., Homeowner

Josh did the building work and organized other trades for a laundry/bathroom conversion and bedroom enlargement on our house in Onerahi. He did a great job - he communicates very clearly, nothing is too much trouble, we had no issues with Council, inspections all passed, and we are stoked with the results. It was our first big job around here, we found Josh through positive reviews on the internet, and now we wouldn't go anywhere else.

— Nev M., Homeowner

It is always a pleasure to have Josh come around and work for us. He is pleasant and professional, communicates well and bills promptly. I'd recommend him if you're looking for a builder who is good at his job and easy to work with.

— Stephen H., Homeowner

Would like to highly recommend Josh for his fast and effective help when my house when it flooded during Cylcone Tam. Josh came during the storm, on public holidays and weekends, going out of his way to help when we needed it. He arranged a drainlayer to help him install new drainage, during pouring rain, in a not so easy to acess location. Expectations were exceeded and the workmanship is incredible! If you need help with retaining walls, building or drainage I definitely recommend Creo Contracting!

— Sharon B., Homeowner

Great work, clear communication, will definitely book you again when we need. Thank you

— Jasmine T., Homeowner

Finding Josh has been a godsend. Josh is a straight up honest, hardworking and very capable person. All work is finished to a high standard and completed even better than what you envisage the completed project will look like. Highly recommended👌

— Denise P., Homeowner

Josh helped build a retaining wall, fences with gates on our property. He was punctual, hard-working and reliable, we are really happy with the work he did

— Harping B., Homeowner

Josh just finished a project for us and we are very pleased with his work. Good communication, quality work with attention to detail. Competitive rates.

— Leanne H., Homeowner

Josh has proven to be a reliable and honest contractor. Josh has constructed a couple of homes for me from foundations to finishing and everything in between. I would recommend Josh for your next job.

— Scott B., Branch Manager at Keith Hay Homes

Thanks for my awesome cabin, Josh. Highly recommend Creo Contracting. Josh shows up on time and gets stuck in, great communication the whole way through, his prices are fair, and he was able to turn my excited jumble of ideas and drawings into something real that I will be enjoying for many years. I'm super happy - Can't wait to paint it and really make it my own.

— Sarah B., Homeowner

The one who gets it done

Josh Vanderbrugghen

Meet Josh, a licensed building practitioner and skilled digger operator with nearly two decades in the construction game. Born into a family-run renovation business in Canada, Josh learned the ropes from a young age, and later discovered a second talent: operating excavators. After a few Arctic winters spent chipping ice off frozen machine tracks before sunrise, Josh decided it might be time for a change. Now settled in Taranaki with his wife and two children, he makes the most of the outdoors year-round, surfing, hunting and fishing whenever he can.
