Petersen Barnes is an established building name in Taranaki, dating back to the 1980s. We are a family-owned and award winning company, passionate about high quality builds that demand precision and excellence.
Restorations, new builds and project management – it’s all important to us and what we do. We have an eye for the extraordinary, and take pride in delivering premium new homes with unique style and quality. Our contemporary vision for efficient, iconic housing means we can work with custom designs to build you a stunning home to the highest possible standard.
The business was started by brothers-in-law Murray Petersen and Neil Barnes in 1982, who earned a reputation for high-quality builds and professional service.
After 16 years, the business ran its course in 1998. Twenty years on, it was given a new lease on life when Murray and Neil’s sons, cousins Sam and Malachi, were approached by a friend who wanted trusted builders to take on a cutting edge, technical new build. Petersen Barnes was reborn.
