We have achieved a reputation for outstanding quality, often going above and beyond to achieve exceptional results, which has been recognised in the Registered Master Builders’ House of the Year competition. We have accomplished this by fastidiously honing our procedures throughout the entire build process. In a number of instances, our best practice processes are unique to Thorne Group. This includes the way we box up the floors through to the finishes touches on the home. It’s an accumulation of dedication, perseverance and years of collective experience. We invite you to discuss these specific ‘best in industry’ processes with our directors.
We are thrilled and excited that all three of our entries into this year’s Registered Master Builders House of the year received gold awards. This translates to the quality being 80% above the industry standard. Furthermore, two of our homes made the coveted ‘Top 100 homes in the country’ list.

Building with the future in mind
Exercising Kaitiakitanga - Strengthening Whanaungatanga
As a building company, we are very conscious of our environmental footprint. Where possible we source sustainable products and continually look to review and enhance our environmental policies. However, as a company we know that this alone is quite simply not enough. With this in mind, we have put together a programme which not only aims to offset our carbon footprint, but also provides much needed support for environmental projects in the Tauranga region, for future generations to enjoy.
Our staff and their families have become extremely passionate about this programme.
Once again our staff and their families came through and planted thousands of native plants in a wetland area and surrounding pasture at Summerhill Farm & Recreational Park, adjacent to the Papamoa Hills Regional Park. The aim of the project was to plant native shrubs and trees for perpetuity, having multiple benefits of protecting the waterway, sequestering carbon and increasing native bushwalking areas. This wetland is part of the headwaters that runs into the Kopuaroa Stream, Kaituna River and Maketu Estuary, so it is imperative that this water supply is improved and protected. This will create a beautiful native bush area for future generations to enjoy for perpetuity..
We are driven to see what we can do within
the environment for future generations because ultimately isn’t that what really matters?
