“Pope Homes is a locally owned and operated family construction business. We deliver honest, reliable and realistic guidance and support to our clients who have chosen to embark on a journey to transform or create their home.”
We have an amazing band of highly skilled and experienced carpenters and office support team who share our vision to provide exceptional service and outcomes for all of our clients. They are great mentors for our apprentices offering expert learning opportunities and strong awareness of industry regulations. We pride ourselves on having a tight team who value each other and who share our good old family values.
At the finale of all our new build projects we present our clients with a video showing imagery of their journey over the duration of the build. We always get such wonderful feedback and appreciation from them for this simple gift.
We like to think that we ‘stand out’ from the housing crowds. Being a private building company we believe we bring the whole package. We offer a personal service for the entire project and more often than not our boys on site and our office administrator who has an eye for design, develop really neat relationships with the people whose home they are in.
We are also super proud to have established a really great client base in and around Rotorua. We have many many happy clients who continually acknowledge their appreciation and share their success stories.
Here are just three of our glowing most recent testimonials.
You certainly do all build Forever Homes…
Thank you seems so very inadequate – but they really are the only ones that work…
Thank you all…
Erin: from that first extreme day that you met us on site – in the pouring rain – still in your shorts – and you listened to our dreams and heard what we couldn’t yet see…
Thank You…
Elise: I didn’t actually meet you until later on – but a man and his business, cannot exist without a supportive wife…
Thank You…
LeeAnne: Actually, words seem inadequate – but here goes:
You listened to me…
You never told me what you do – but I valued your guidance so much, when I needed a starting place to look for help and ideas…
You were always patient with me…
You never minded how often I rang you – and you followed everything up immediately…
Thank you my Friend…
Layton: Russell even commented on enjoying working with you!!!
I valued your no-nonsense guidance…
When you gave me options on things – where I felt out of my depth – you offered me practical solutions…
Thank you for everything…
To all your men – some I met, some I didn’t: Thank you all for every moment you spent building us this beautiful home…
To the Kitchen people, Wardrobe people, Flooring people, Plumbing people, Painting people, Roofing & window people – I enjoyed working with all of them – I would recommend any of them to others…
Thank you…
It really is going to be a beautiful and easy home for us to enjoy!
Thank you again…
And I love, appreciate and value you…

We chose to work with Pope Homes for their personalised, customisable service with a reputation for quality finishing.
Coming into our build, we had a very specific layout and aesthetic in mind. The team paired us with an architect they felt would best suit our project and property and throughout our build, employed only trusted contractors with an equal standard of service.
We loved that we had the same team of familiar faces on-site for the entirety of our build. The boys battled unprecedented weather without complaint and our Foreman in particular went above and beyond to include us in every aspect of planning, scheduling and meetings as needed to ensure our vision came to life as we had dreamed of.
We are delighted with the end result and enjoy comments from visitors on the quality of finish. We felt included every step of the way and would have no hesitation jumping into another project with the Pope Homes team.

Many thanks to Erin, Layton and the team for their work on our new workshop and office facility for our rural contracting business.
Having previously used Pope Homes for a residential project, we knew we would get a quality job and we were not disappointed.
We would highly recommend considering Pope Homes for any building projects you may have.

I guess we are fortunate that as employers we can make a difference for our staff. We can contribute to providing a happy and well-balanced work life balance and we encourage that too. We are very mindful that we must take care of our team. It is essential that they feel appreciated and valued. We try our best to have social time with them and include their families as much as possible.
Other benefits of being a business owner could be networking opportunities with other similar businesses and appreciation opportunities from time to time from suppliers that we regularly support.
We are optimistic that the future will be bright for small business owners.
We also strongly believe in supporting local and doing our best to support and promote other local businesses.
In recent years Erin has been the NZCB regional president for Rotorua, supporting members in our area. He and our amazing office administrator Lee-anne organise networking breakfasts on a monthly basis. This provides opportunities for members to chew the fat, bounce ideas, challenges and concerns off one another as well as find solutions. We are very lucky to be hosted each week by Columbus coffee in the Rotorua central mall for these meetings.
