David Anstis has been building and renovating homes since 1988. He works on every Ecoconstruct job himself, and he builds with natural light, warmth and the environment in mind.

“I have been building and renovating quality homes since 1988, always making sure that I work the right way as opposed to the easy way. I place the same high demands on all those who work for me.
Long before eco and green became mainstream I was building homes that took the natural environment into account, from natural lighting and warmth all the way through to installing solar panels.
Something I learned is that building environmentally friendly homes doesn’t have to cost more. If you include ongoing costs, it can save you a significant amount of money.”

New homes, renovations and David’s own Ecohome designs.

Architecturally designed homes, built with natural light, warmth and the environment in mind.

Renovations to existing homes, including heritage properties, done the right way rather than the easy way.

David’s own contemporary Ecohome designs, for clients building on a restricted budget.
David has built with natural light, warmth and solar power in mind since long before eco became mainstream. These are the steps the Ministry for the Environment recommends for a healthier, more efficient home.
Good insulation keeps the temperature steady all year.
Windows placed to bring in more sun and daylight.
Building materials that don’t use or give off harmful chemicals.
Solar panels and appliances that use energy and water efficiently.
Ecoconstruct have completed two different renovation projects for me and I have been very impressed with their professionalism and the work that they did. They communicated well, arrived on time, and did a fabulous job. They thought about the right solution for my heritage apartment and … cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend Dave and ecoconstruct.

“As a testament to David Anstis’ desire to build “environmentally friendly”, this home certainly ticks all the boxes in terms of being healthy, modern and a piece of eye-candy on the side of the hill.”
