What our customers say
Trusted by NZ homeowners & professionals
“I almost hired a builder who had three liquidations behind him. CheckMyBuilder flagged it in minutes and could have saved me thousands of dollars.”
Sarah T.

“As a property lawyer I now recommend this to every client before they sign a building contract. The director history is incredibly detailed.”
James R.
Property Lawyer, Wellington
“The AI summary explained everything in plain English. I didn't need any specific knowledge to understand the risks. Brilliant tool.”
Michelle K.
First Home Buyer, Christchurch
“Found out our chosen builder's previous company had been struck off and was under investigation. We walked away immediately. Worth every cent.”
David & Lisa P.
Homeowners, Hamilton
“Used it before engaging a renovation company. Turns out the director had two prior companies go into receivership. Huge red flag we would have missed.”
Craig M.
Property Investor, Tauranga
“Simple to use, fast results, and the report is comprehensive. I use it for every trade contractor we bring on site now.”
Priya S.

“The insolvency alerts section is gold. Our builder had a receivership notice we never would have found on our own.”
Tom H.
Homeowner, Dunedin
“Checked three companies before choosing our builder. The one we picked had a clean record and that gave us real peace of mind.”
