Rebecca and Jason Frater
Welcome to Jason Frater Builders.
Building beautiful homes and inspiring spaces throughout the stunning Nelson and Tasman region.
We are passionate about building, we are creative and well skilled in all types of construction and we pride ourselves on an exceptional level of workmanship in everything we do.
We specialise in providing excellent solutions when the location or geographic terrain is particularly challenging.
FROM BEGINNING TO END
We like to build a great rapport with the client from the very beginning. This makes the process together enjoyable and makes communication easy with each other.
If required we can help with the selection of an architect that aligns with the clients vision and the project environment. We enjoy working alongside the client in both a project management role and an onsite ‘hands on’ role to ensure that every aspect is carried out to the required standards, and the highest quality.
Each project is carried out with care and integrity. Having built trusted connections over many years with sub-contractors, suppliers and architects in the area ensures a solid working relationship.
In addition to creating beautiful homes, we specialise in the restoration and maintenance of historic farm buildings.
QUALIFIED AND EXPERIENCED
Jason is a Licensed Building Practitioner (LBP) and a member of the Certified Builders Association of New Zealand ensuring he is fully trade qualified. Having owned his own company for the last 24 years, Jason brings both experience and a breadth of industry knowledge into each project he undertakes.
We wanted a builder who would be predominately ‘on site’ and would take charge of the construction process, use initiative, but work closely with us, despite our home base being Dunedin. Finishing the complete job inside and out with outdoor shower area, terraces, lawns and garden areas was also important to us.
Jason’s work site was always well organised, with health and safety paramount. It was obvious that the team had a knowledgeable, well-respected leader who supervised closely to ensure a meticulous standard was achieved. Workflow continued with little interruption with his excellent forward planning and by using sub-contractors in whom he had confidence.
