The craftsmen of
Tom Cooney Construction

Ensuring the quality of building in Alexandra

Alexandra has always been home for me. A fourth generation local with family throughout the region, this is where construction first inspired me, where I sharpened my craft and finally set up shop. A southern bloke with a love of good folk and the great outdoors, Alex was the perfect place to build a family and begin a quality construction company.

Since those fresh faced days, our local population has bloomed with city slickers looking for a better lifestyle, holiday makers laying down roots, historic homes being upgraded and new suburbs popping up left, right and centre. As I watched our town evolve, I knew I wanted to ensure the quality of this growth and lower the impact on our surrounding environment. To inspire and enable my community new and old to craft thoughtfully designed homes made from quality materials by experienced hands.

A significant element of guaranteeing the quality of our town’s future is leading the change in our local building industry towards a more sustainable model. This will require a big shift that begins with small steps such as implementing a waste minimisation procedure for our town.

In the meantime, we’re upskilling to offer clients energy efficient design tips that work with our natural resources such as the sun and wind. Early engagement at the design phase allows us to pass these on, as well as recommend the best materials and offer cost savings from the start.

The method to your masterpiece

Meet, greet and get to know your project

Our exceptional service begins with a free consultation where we visit your site and get to know each other, then find out about your needs, wants and working style. We like to make sure our ethos is aligned from the get-go to ensure an enjoyable building journey for all.

Site excavation and foundations

Our commitment to forging great relationships extends to our subcontractors. Working with the best in the Otago region, we will transform your empty section into your building canvas through site excavation and earthworks, then lay the foundations, add septic requirements, drainage and the finishing touches with landscaping and driveways.

Drafting up your dream home & fine tuning plans

Next step is getting your ideas on paper or fine tuning your existing plans. Engaging us at the design stage allows us to offer expert advice on energy efficiency, materials, cost savings and council process to avoid those bumps in the road down the track.

Quality building envelope and joinery

Through careful application of tried and tested materials, we work to craft a living environment that is warm, dry, healthy and comfortable for you and your family - now and in the future.
