Altitude Builders and Deane Fluit Builders have joined forces, combining three generations of craftsmanship to deliver high-end residential builds in Wanaka. We pride ourselves on quality, integrity, and strong client relationships by guiding families, both local and new, through every step of the building process.
With a skilled team, trusted subcontractors, and deep material knowledge, we ensure precision, sustainability, and seamless project management. More than builders, we’re part of the community by mentoring apprentices, supporting local businesses, and constantly refining our craft. We have the local knowledge as the family has been building in the community since 1967. No corners cut, no detail overlooked—just exceptional homes built to last.

I couldn’t be happier with the work from Deane and Reeces team. From the first meeting to the final handover, everything was clear, professional, and finished to the highest standard that they pride themselves on. The crew were respectful, tidy, and genuinely cared about the result.

What we thought would be a stressful process turned out to be completely seamless thanks to the team at Altitude Builders. Their communication has been clear and consistent, the workmanship is outstanding, and they even finished ahead of schedule. We’re currently in the midst of upgrading more parts of our home, and the team has been incredibly flexible—working around our timeline and cash flow. Couldn’t recommend them more highly!
Megan and Barry, Riverton
What really stood out was the team’s communication and expert advice throughout the whole kitchen renovation. There were a few tricky decisions along the way, but their knowledge and guidance made it easy to choose the right options. We always felt informed, supported, and confident in their recommendations. It made a huge difference.

![🎉 What a Year It’s Been! 🎉
As 2024 comes to a close, we’re sitting back, reflecting, and wondering how we managed to pull it all off without losing our minds (or more tools). From flat roofs that stayed flat (you’re welcome, gravity) to kitchens that no longer look like the 80s threw a party in them, it’s been one heck of a ride!
✅ Highlights of [2024]:
• 🏠 Flat roofs so perfect, they could double as dance floors (but don’t).
• 🛠️ Kitchens upgraded to “Chef’s Paradise” – or at least “Microwave Heaven.”
• A new build that had plans more of a indication of how to get to site 🏡
• 🧱 Building projects that made us wish we had more coffee
• 🤝 Clients who kept us on our toes, with ideas ranging from “it’s simple” to “how do we even do that, it can’t be to hard?!”
We couldn’t have done it without our rockstar team, who showed up every day ready to build, fix, and have a good time together. Thanks @garry_birdsall_surfart for your help through the last couple years, you’ll be missed bro!!
@jonoboi1 putting the tool belt on for the first time and over achieving 😉
To our clients: thanks for your trust, patience, and for not freaking out when we turned your home into a construction zone.
Here’s to 2035 – may it bring more builds, fewer surprises, and as much laughter as possible. Cheers to all of you for making it worth every minute!
✨ Happy New Year from Altitude Builders– we’ll see you next year for more chaos (the good kind). ✨
