Create a self-contained granny flat for multigenerational living, rental income, or guest accommodation. Expert design and professional construction tailored to your needs.
What we do
 A granny flat (minor dwelling) is a versatile, self-contained living space that can serve multiple purposes—providing accommodation for aging parents, creating rental income, or offering guest space. At Strong Builds, we specialise in designing and constructing high-quality granny flats that maximise your property’s potential whilst maintaining compliance with Auckland Council regulations.
Whether you are looking to support multigenerational living, generate additional income, or simply add flexible space to your property, we manage the entire granny flat construction process from initial design through to final handover. Our team ensures your minor dwelling is beautifully designed, fully functional, and compliant with all building and zoning requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
