Building Homes, Not Just Houses in Hawke's Bay

Hi, I’m Cameron Smith, founder of CJS Carpenters. My experience spans commercial construction and high-end residential builds, giving me the expertise to deliver exceptional homes across Hawke’s Bay.

I believe that building your home should be a rewarding experience where quality craftsmanship meets personal attention. This philosophy guides every project we undertake, from bespoke new builds to thoughtful renovations.

What makes us different? I work directly on each project, applying the same standards I demand for my own home. This owner-led approach ensures your build receives genuine attention and skilled craftsmanship throughout.

As licensed builders in NZ, we create spaces built around your lifestyle and needs. Our clients choose us because we focus on clear communication, transparent pricing, and results that exceed expectations.

Our team specialises in design and build in Hawke’s Bay with a reputation for quality that speaks for itself. Talk to our satisfied clients or visit our completed projects to see the CJS difference.
