The builder behind the business.
Rob Morrison has spent sixteen years in the construction industry, and the path that brought him to Warkworth is anything but ordinary.
Rob began with a pre-trade course at WelTec in Petone before completing his apprenticeship with Kerr Construction in Wellington, a company known for its architectural renovations and new builds across the city’s inner suburbs. It was here that Rob discovered his passion for complex structural work and the kind of renovation that demands genuine skill, the sort of project most builders walk away from.
After qualifying, Rob spent time subcontracting before relocating to Melbourne, where he worked on townhouse developments and an apartment complex, broadening his experience across different build types and scales.
A period of travel followed, taking Rob through Southeast Asia, including a chapter living and working as a scuba diving instructor in Thailand, where he met Laura. The two spent time in Italy before eventually settling in Auckland, where Rob established RHM Construction and quickly built a reputation for structural renovations in Titirangi and Mount Eden.
When Rob and Laura decided to start a family, Warkworth was the clear choice, a safe, family-oriented community, close to the beaches of the Matakana Coast and within easy reach of Auckland. They have not looked back.
Most recently, Rob and Laura spent nine months in Italy with their son Dante, giving him time with his Italian family, and immersing themselves fully in the language and culture.
Rob spent this time working remotely as an Estimator and project support for Build2.0.
Rob even managed to learn the Italian language in the short nine months they were there. It is that same commitment and follow-through that defines how he approaches every build.
The People Behind the Builds
RHM Construction is a family business in every sense. Rob leads all project management, client relationships, and on-site quality control, while Laura manages the administration, accounts, and client communications that keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
It is a small, tight operation, and that is deliberate. Every client gets our full attention, every project gets our best work, and nothing falls through the cracks.
What we stand for
Honesty
We tell you what a job will cost, what it will take, and what to expect, before we start and throughout the build.
Transparency
Open book contracts, detailed cost reporting, and clear communication at every stage. You will always know where your project stands.
Craft
Sixteen years of experience across Wellington, Melbourne, and Auckland. We take on the projects others find complex, and we do them well.
