Committed to Sustainability
Sustainability at Nelson Builders
At Nelson Builders, sustainability is part of everything we do — from the yard to the site and through every stage of the build.
Recycling and Waste Reduction
We prioritise recycling on site and at our yard to minimise landfill waste. Materials are carefully sorted, repurposed, and reclaimed whenever possible. On a recent project replacing the Nelson Boys’ School dining hall roof, our focus on best-practice waste management meant we only needed one skip bin of waste — compared to the 10 or more typically required on similar sites.
Offsetting Labour Costs for Sustainability
Our commitment to sustainable building also includes innovative labour management. By involving our team throughout the entire project journey, we keep processes efficient, reducing waste and associated labour costs — savings that are passed on to our clients.
Built to Last
We don’t just build houses — we build homes designed to stand the test of time. Durable, high-quality materials and craftsmanship mean fewer repairs and replacements down the road, reducing environmental impact.
Happy Team, Happy Home
A motivated, engaged team is essential to our sustainable approach. When our team enjoys their work, the quality and care in the build shine through — resulting in homes that feel right and perform well.
