His leadership ensures a customer experience that is well-managed, well-communicated and delivered with genuine accountability.

What Makes the Tauranga Service Different

Chris’s approach sets him apart from many competitors. While other operators often juggle on-site work with admin and customer communication, Chris focuses on strong business management, resulting in smoother job flow, better coordination and a more attentive customer experience.

Let’s Get Started

The first step is an initial meeting, where he takes the time to fully understand the homeowner’s goals and the outcome they want to achieve. Known for being approachable, organised and committed to clear communication, Chris ensures every stage of the process feels smooth and well-managed. He welcomes the opportunity to visit the client’s Tauranga property, discuss potential options and help them move forward with confidence. Get in touch with Chris today!

Guy and his team have worked on two renovations for us and both have been hassle free thanks to their professionalism, consideration and can-do attitude. Genuinely helpful, adaptable in their work and very tidy! A real pleasure to deal with, we wouldn't use anyone else for our building work.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use my own fixtures or source my own products?

Absolutely. Many homeowners like to choose tiles, fittings, or vanity styles themselves. Oncore can recommend trusted local suppliers in Taranaki and ensure your selections work with your renovation design, timelines, and installation requirements.

Can Oncore® replace or upgrade my shower?

Yes, shower replacements and upgrades are one of the most common bathroom upgrades we do in New Plymouth. Whether you want a walk in shower, a new showerhead system, or a complete enclosure replacement, Oncore® can take care of it all for you. Your local project manager ensures waterproofing, tiling, and plumbing are handled together for a seamless result.

Can you claim water damage on home insurance?

Standard home insurance generally allows you to claim water damage in some form, but specific coverage depends on your policy. For example, flood damage isn’t the same as soggy flooring caused by a leaky shower pipe so, depending on your policy, one may be covered while the other is not. It’s best to consult with your provider to discuss your policy details.

Can you help with vandalism, ram raid, or weather damage repairs?

Yes, we can. Our team offers reinstatement and remedial repair services for vandalism, ram raid damage, and weather related issues such as water intrusion or storm damage. We work closely with businesses and insurance providers to restore your premises quickly and professionally.

Should your property require any services to meet Healthy Homes standards, our extended network of trades professionals is here to help. We can organise and manage any maintenance, repairs, or installations necessary, making the entire process of achieving compliance completely effortless.

What are common hidden costs in a bathroom renovation?

Hidden costs in a bathroom renovation often come from underlying issues like water damage, outdated plumbing, or subfloor problems that aren’t obvious during planning. Working with a fully managed bathroom renovation company in New Plymouth helps you identify these risks early and plan your budget accurately from the start.

What is a healthy home?

A healthy home is a property that’s constructed and maintained to support the health of its occupants. To ensure everyone in New Zealand is living in a healthy home, the government has established a set of standards that all rental properties must meet. The main factors considered: heating, insulation, ventilation, draught stopping, and moisture ingress and drainage.

While only rental properties must comply with healthy homes standards, it’s wise for all property owners to ensure their own homes meet the standards too. If not for the health of your household, do it to increase your property’s value and extend its lifespan.

  • Weatherboard Cladding Replacement
  • Vinyl Cladding Replacement
  • Fiber Cement Cladding Replacement
