    "As an engineer and project manager myself, I'd say Pete is a miracle worker when it comes to building decks. He brings to the project skill, experience and commitment. Nothing but quality workmanship. Easy to talk to and engage with. We are very pleased we got him to build our deck, as will our baby grandson who will get to play on it very soon."

    "Pete replaced my aging Deck in August and from the first contact to the finish it was a great experience. Pete visited and discussed what & how he would do the work and I was impressed as how he explained it so clearly. He turned up on the Monday and the job was finished by the Friday. Awesome job as promised. He also did a small fence for me (a one day job for him) which is great/perfect. Recommend totally to anyone needing decks or other building projects. Thanks again Pete!"

    "We had Pete do some work on our deck, and we are over the moon. Can't say enough about the consultation, we had our ideas and Pete offered some advice as well. His extensive knowledge was invaluable, gave us a perfect result.
    You won't go wrong with Pete on the job, and dare I say it, a classic kiwi gentleman!

    "We got quotes from a number of companies to renew our deck. We chose Pete and was really happy we did. A nice, approachable guy. He provided good ideas about what needed to be done, and how he'd do it; a quote including some drawings, so we had a good idea of his approach; great communication during the job about when he'd be onsite; and he took due care to work around our house, and pets. We're really happy with the end result, so very happy to recommend Pete.""

    "Pete came highly recommended to us as 'the guy' to do our deck. On review of the comments on this site and the general comments we had heard - we were happy to give him a call. And man, were we happy we did!

    Not only is the deck an outstanding quality and gives us that indoor / outdoor flow we wanted - dealing with Pete was also a pleasure. A great guy to talk to and we never felt we were putting him out by asking heaps of questions to get the deck just right. Pete's input was invaluable and has left us with the perfect space for our property.

    Towards the end of the build, Pete brought around some sample pieces that he had stained which made the whole 'choosing a deck stain colour' process that much easier for us. It was these little touches that made a huge difference.

    We couldn't recommend Pete more highly!

    "Pete did a new fence for us late last year. He had great ideas on style and design for the situation we had. He was very easy to deal with and communicated well, especially when he would be on site and if he wouldn’t be there, usually weather related. He worked hard while on-site and cleaned up after he’d finished. We would not hesitate to use Pete again."

Pete came round and gave us great advice about a low deck to cover and replace an old concrete patio and provided a fair quote. He was completely reliable and the quality of the work is excellent. He has completely transformed our outdoor space. "

    "We reached out to Pete after reading all his rave reviews on Google and so glad we did. He has done as exceptional job turning an unusable section of garden into a great outdoor living space. We could not be happier with the finished product. One of his many strengths is his fantastic communication and the work was completed far faster than we expected and to an exceedingly high standard. He was also very pleasant to deal with. Thanks Pete, you should come around for a drink one night on our new deck!"

He was very patient in answering our questions and when the delivery of our Spa got delayed, he happily accommodated us. He came up with solutions and guidance on all of our requirements. He is very knowledgeable, hard working and has a great sense of humour. :)
    Cannot recommend him enough.

    "Peter did a full replacement of our deck and improved the design and features, including built in seating and a privacy screen. The one (too) large step was replaced with two manageable steps and a handrail, all in wood and fitting in well with the rest of the deck.
    The previous deck was over 25 years old, not proper decking wood, and I think the output of a DIY handyman that owned the house before us.
    Peter was recommended by friends, and we were very pleased with the results. Very professional finish, good design and communication, and always friendly and polite.

    "After finding Peters details through no cowboys and contacting him, Pete was fast to respond and make a time to come over and check out our space. He was incredibly thorough and put a lot of thought into the space and design of the deck.
    Pete was fast and meticulous in the job with great communication in regards anything he thought might need changing/adapting during the job.
    The deck has transformed our front yard into a beautiful deck with gorgeous fencing around it. We couldn’t be happier with the result!!! Pete was also great with the kids and our dog will miss him terribly! Great value, quick turnaround! Would recommend to everyone.

Peter is a wonderful guy to deal with, very professional, knowledgeable and the standard of his work is first class. Peter takes enormous pride in both the materials he uses and the quality of the finished product. Our dogs were extremely sad when their new friend completed the work."

    "We are extremely impressed with our new deck built by Peter. He uses the absolute best materials, is extremely thorough and really enjoys what he does.
    He also was able to give us lots of advice on sizing and other features that would give our deck a real finished touch.
    Peter is a true craftsman - he has seen and done it all, and this level of experience and care really makes you feel like you are in expert hands. Thanks Peter!

    "We've just had Peter back 3 years later to do another piece of work at our section. We were super impressed with our first deck (built in 2016) and couldn't be happier with the new extensions we have added to the section.
    Peter does an outstanding job and provides really good ideas and options that enabled us to work in everything we wanted. He also worked with the business that is installing some additional roofing to ensure we could get the best drainage and aesthetics for the overall area.

    Very hard worker - top workmanship - so easy and friendly to deal with. A real pleasure to have at the property. Would highly recommend his work and services to anyone looking to have a deck built. Thanks Peter for another awesome addition to our property. We're really looking forward to enjoying the new outdoor space.

    Would definitely use your services again in the future.

    "We put our house on the market and then discovered we had some code of compliance issues with our existing deck, built 16 years ago, which involved some serious remedial work. Pete was suggested to us as the man to go to for decks in Wellington, and I'm very thankful for that advice!
    Pete provided a quote and spoke with the council inspector. He was always here, on time, when he said he would be, the invoice was as quoted, and our deck has passed its final inspection. All of this was done within a very tight time-frame, as the house sold, subject to ccc.

    Pete was also personally very easy to deal with, easy to talk to, and clear in his explanations of what was being done and why.

    If you need any deck work done, give Pete a call. He's the man!!

    "Contacted Pete to reinstate a 4m long bridge over a stream that had been damaged when an arborist miscalculated the fall of a substantial tree. He submitted a drawing and a competitive price, chose the best wood and completed a very well built walking bridge in a matter of a couple of days. He is a great communicator, keeping us in the loop at all times. We are delighted with the end result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pete. Hoping to use him again for a deck at a later date. "

    "This is the second time that I have used Pete to build a deck for my home. I did not even consider using anyone else after the outstanding job he did on the last project. Pete pulled up an old deck and replaced it with a much larger one with seating and planter boxes. The end result is outstanding and has transformed a previously unused area into a stylish and functional outdoor living space. Pete is extremely professional, conscientious, an excellent communicator and an extremely skilled craftsman. I would, without hesitation, recommend Ashton Building."

Although we had an idea of the type of deck we wanted, Peter has been really helpful in providing suggestions on things like functionality (stairs and seats), safety for our kids and privacy. Peter has a great work ethic; He worked tirelessly to replace our old deck with a brand new deck that not only looks great but provides a safe place for our kids to play. We also like the fact that Peter is a North Wellington local and have no hesitation in recommending Peter for future work."

    "Peter was our knight in shining armour.
    We had a deck built just under a year ago by a cowboy builder, (didn't know about this website then). We contacted Peter to ask for help and advice. He came out and inspected the deck we had and gave us various alternatives along with some really good advice about how to spot quality vs shoddy products. Peter gave us a very good quote for the work and was able to start very quickly so we could have it sorted fro Xmas. The job ended up being much larger as the whole frame needed to be redone. Peter was professional throughout and his standard of work and client care (human and four legged) is exemplary. We would highly recommend his work, wether it is a new deck or fixing up an old one.

Pete came and gave us a quote really quickly and then completed our deck in under 5 days. His skills and workmanship are unbelievably good and he was so easy to get on with - even our very nervous dog loved him!! We would not hesitate to recommend Pete to anyone wanting a deck built. Another impressive attribute was that Pete was so tidy!!! After the deck was finished you wouldn’t even know he had been there building!! We absolutely love our new deck and this summer will be the best ever. Thank you ever so much Pete."

    "Pete solved a very long term problem for us with the sloping corner of our section. He put a post on neighbourly advising that due to a delayed contract he had some time available if anyone wanted some work done. He came very promptly to advise what we could do and quote. Then the delayed job re-appeared and the weather gods had a very damp few weeks. Pete was worth waiting for – we now have a sizable outside room.
    His subcontractor with the mini digger was amazing to watch – in through a 700mm wide gate, with great care of the drive, lawn and house and by the end of the morning a large skip bin of dirt and the basic deck shape dug out.

    Pete’s work is fast, accurate and very tidy. The work area was cleared every day. A few unexpected tweaks needed to deal with some challenges, cheerfully advised, agreed and actioned. Start to finish in less than 5 days. We’d happily recommended.Pete . What a quality job!

We wanted something a bit different, and Pete came up with a couple of designs for us, he also had photos of previous decks he had built. We were very happy with the deck, it turned out to be quite complex with it's different platforms and stairs, we also had a spa that needed to be accommodated, and this was fitted into the deck really well with a trellis privacy surround. The deck meet all of requirements and Pete always explained things as he was going, bad weather caused some delays, but Pete always communicated and explained any issues as he progressed through. Pete is very professional and a great person to deal with, very helpful and trustworthy. We also got him back to fill in our porch area for us.

    "We are incredibly grateful for the work Peter completed at our property. We invited 3 businesses to give us some advice and quote for a deck we wanted built to extend our indoor living to the outdoors.
    Peter had responded, visited and provided a quote before the second business even called back. After meeting with Peter and viewing some of his previous work, we opted to go with him and could not be happier. He is hardworking, honest, and would not undertake any work that he would not be happy with in his own backyard. He is meticulous, thorough and very reliable.

    The advice he provided to us has given us a better outcome than we could have achieved by insisting what we would have liked. The measure of success for us was Peter showing us how he would have built the deck if this was his own backyard. Would absolutely recommend him and would not hesitate to use him again. If I could build another deck in my backyard, I would....just so that we could use him again. Fantastic local builder with exceptionally high standards.

    Happy for him to use our backyard to show others what he can do, which included decking and helping us to create an area for an outdoor fire.

    "Pete Ashton is a terrific deck builder. We had a complex deck built for us ten years ago. Recently we moved to another property and wanted a deck built.
    We went straight back go Pete ! He is the total professional. He helps you from start to finish, ensuring you get exactly what you want. His standard of workmanship is outstanding - he is meticulous. Once again we are delighted with our new deck.
    He is totally reliable and we cam recommend him whole heartedly. You won't be disappointed. And he's a thoroughly nice guy !!

Once we gave the go ahead it was promptly completed as agreed. What an amazing job. A once unused area now looks wonderful thanks to Pete's skill.

    "We contacted Pete just before Xmas for a quote and luckily for us he was able to fit it us in. Pete communicated well and was excellent in setting expectations which he always met. The work was to resurface an existing deck and in the process he had to replace some of the underlying supporting structure. Pete's quote was competitive and his workmanship exemplary. The work was completed on time with quality materials and nothing seemed to be too much trouble e.g. he washed all the stainless steel nails.

    We have no hesitation in recommending Pete

    We live on a difficult Wellington street and our neighbors commented how considerate he was as well as many positive remarks about the quality of his workmanship.

    Peter is a great guy to work with, very transparent about costs etc and his experience and skills are very evident in his work.

    Thank you for the help with carrying down groceries too, in my pregnant state that was really a huge help! We will definitely be in touch about some other small deck repairs and would recommend you highly to anyone wanting a new deck or deck repair!!!"

He uses quality materials and provides a first class product. As I had built some of the surrounding walls, there were hardly any straight sides, but Pete fitted the deck to my walls brilliantly. He is a very conscientious and quick worker and his deck has impressed all who have seen it. We will definitely use him again. "
