ARCHITECTURAL HOME BUILDERS WITH A PERSONAL TOUCH

Our story

HELPING OUR CLIENTS TO DELIVER EXCEPTIONAL RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL BUILDING PROJECTS FOR OVER 40 YEARS

A Sparks Builders Ltd is a Wellington construction company established by Ashley Sparks in 1982.

​

Ash was just 23 when he started A Sparks Builders but quickly got involved with some of Wellington's leading architects. The company has only grown in skill, reputation and trust since then.

 

We’ve proudly worked on a wide range of construction work in Wellington. Some of our highlights so far have been an incredible penthouse apartment upgrade - complete with Italian marble columns, reconstructing a copper dome seven levels up on a historical building in Wellington CBD and recreating an entryway for one of our much-loved local historic theatres. 

​

What makes us unique is our utter dedication to quality and service. We are versatile, experienced and skilled. But we also care deeply about the projects we work on, and the clients we work with. Our personal touch is what makes our team stand out from the rest.
