Maxis Projects was founded to bring a more practical, relationship-driven approach to construction consultancy across New Zealand.

With decades of experience across development, construction, and project management, we understand how projects succeed — and where they could go wrong.

Our leadership brings over 30 years of industry experience, with a background spanning carpentry, quantity surveying, and large-scale project delivery.

Having worked both client-side and contractor-side, we offer a well-rounded perspective — balancing commercial outcomes with real-world buildability.

We work closely with our clients, becoming a trusted partner throughout the lifecycle of each project. That means open communication, proactive thinking, and a genuine commitment to achieving the best result.

Our work is built on trust, reputation, and repeat business. We invest time in understanding our clients, their goals, and their challenges — creating partnerships that extend well beyond a single project.
