Canterbury families share what it was like to build with us, in their own words.

Our journey with Today Homes started with our son Matt. Once Matt had finished building, our daughter decided she wanted to build, and once they had finished we decided it was time to downsize and look at different designs. Today Homes were great in the way they worked with us to get what we wanted. Our experience has been great right through all of the builds we've done with them — it just flowed. We built over 20 years ago, so I was a bit scared about building again, but it went really smoothly and was very stress-free. We couldn't recommend Today Homes any more highly.

Instantly when we walked into Today Homes we felt really comfortable with the process. They were welcoming and showed us what we would need to do to build a house, and we decided to go with them. As it was our first time building it was quite a daunting experience, however throughout the entire process John and our project manager were there for us and answered any questions or emails at any hour of the day. They just made it so easy for us.

We were fortunate to step into a Today Homes show home in Rolleston/Springston Drive in Nov '24, where we met Todd Anderson—and what an experience it was. Todd was fantastic, taking the time to showcase the quality of the build and guide us through the Today Homes process (we had built before in the Waikato). We certainly threw a few curveballs at Todd and the Today Homes team from a design perspective, and they delivered every single time. Our experience became even better once the build was handed over to our Project Manager, Mike Sanders. Mike expertly managed our expectations, the build, the timeline, and everything in between. With Hamish as our builder, the final outcome was outstanding. The quality of workmanship, the handover by Mike Barron, the clear and consistent communication from Rebecca, Abbey, and Michelle, and the support from Brendon in accounts made the entire journey seamless. We can confidently recommend Today Homes across every aspect of their business. They are a great home‑building company with an outstanding team who truly delivered everything we asked for. Thank you, Team Today Homes! Mark & Lianne Dillingham

Mike and the team at Today homes really delivered a great end product! We used them for our new place in Rolleston. The whole process was well executed with regular comms/updates along the way. Which was important as we are in the North Island. The handover went well, couldn't find a single thing to remedy, exceeded expectations and no hesitation recommending to others! Cheers Ari

I run out of words when describing the experience with Today homes. From our initial meeting with Alex our sales consultant, to the communication with Nathan our project manager and Abby & Rebecca the update Gurus, Today homes has been amazing. The communication was so top tier and made us feel at ease. All timelines were clearly communicated and any changes explained and detailed. It was a very stress free experience. Our new home looks and feels phenomenal. We cant wait to make many memories in this home. Thank you all for your care and absolutely great work. In case it wasnt clear - you are at the top of our recommendation list!!

Today Homes were awesome to work with from the initial consultation right through to the final handover. Their communication was great; they were incredibly helpful and provided great advice throughout the entire process. We loved being involved in every stage of the build and really appreciated the high level of service and the quality of the finish. We couldn't be happier with the great job they did!

As first-time home builders we were quite nervous going into the process, but building with Today Homes turned out to be a really positive experience. The whole build was well organised and communication was clear throughout. Our contract manager, Mike, was excellent to deal with. He was professional, helpful, and always willing to answer our questions, which made the process much less stressful for us. The finished home turned out great and the build was completed within the expected timeframe. We’re very happy with the result. A big thank you to Today Homes and the team for making our first home build such a smooth experience. We would definitely recommend them to anyone considering building their home
