WHAT WE BUILD
From space optimising homes to large architectural homes
We’are a bit of an anominaly in the market.
We specialise in both space-optimising homes on compact sites and high-end architectural homes across coastal and rural Bay of Plenty sites.
It comes from experience. Nearly 400 homes delivered at Urban Ridge for people who wanted to downsize, not downspec. And over 20 years refining how homes are planned and delivered.
That same thinking applies to high-end architectural homes and renovations. Optimising budget. Getting the details right. Making every decision count.
Simply put, we know what works and what doesn’t.

20 YEARS OF CONTINOUS IMPROVEMENT
How we refined systems over 20+ years
The depth of experience across our team is significant, from complex geotechnical developments to building high-end homes in Europe, through to developing systems for large international companies.
Over two decades we have refined our systems so projects run better, both on and off site. We know how details can be executed better and supplier relationships optimised. Efficiency protects your budget. It is not about cutting corners. It is about removing waste.
On site we keep our teams small and consistent, each led by a foreman with at least 20 years of experience. We feel our family name is on every build.
Our service and governance model is unlike anything else in the industry.

FIND OUT WHAT THIS HOME COST TO BUILD
THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION
Worried that we might be too expensive?
People assume we’re expensive.
We hear it often.
Then they look closer.
“I originally thought Thorne Group a bit out of my price range, but when I looked further into it, I realised that wasn’t the case.”

A CRITICAL STEP
One of the most important steps often missed
Before making any decision, speak to people who have actually been through it.
Not one or two. A lot.
Over 100 of our clients have taken the time to write about their experience. Not just the finished home, but what it was like to build. Many have built with us more than once. Most come through word of mouth.
That feedback led to us being named Most Trusted Architectural Builder in the Bay of Plenty, five years running.
We stay involved well beyond handover. That’s why we have a structured aftercare programme, and why many of our clients are from word of mouth.
