EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT us here at MAYHEM CONSTRUCTION

Passionate about what we do

Mayhem Construction isn't just a building company – it's a passion project born from the shared vision of two brothers, both proud products of the Manawatu region. With diverse backgrounds in commercial and residential architecture, we merged our expertise to establish Mayhem Construction. Our combined experiences uniquely equip us to tackle even the most intricate challenges of modern building, ensuring that each project we undertake is executed with precision and finesse.

We’re a tight knit crew

From our humble beginnings, we've grown into a tight-knit team of four highly motivated individuals, each driven by our shared values of communication, uncompromising quality, integrity, and honesty. We believe that these values not only define our approach to construction but also shape the way we engage with our clients and our community, enabling us to consistently deliver exceptional work

We strive to be the best

At Mayhem Construction, fostering an environment where our employees can thrive is paramount. We're committed to providing opportunities for learning and skill development, empowering our team members to grow both personally and professionally. Beyond the worksite, we celebrate achievements outside of work, encouraging our team to participate in community sporting events and competitions at local and national levels. We understand that prioritising our physical and mental well-being not only benefits us individually but also ensures that our clients receive the best possible service when we bring our expertise to their projects.

Making your dream a reality

Ultimately, Mayhem Construction was founded on the belief that everyone deserves to see their dream project come to life, regardless of its scale. We approach each project with unwavering dedication and a genuine commitment to excellence, ensuring not only superior quality but also an exceptional experience for our clients every step of the way. At Mayhem Construction, your dream is our passion, and we pour our hearts into making it a reality.

Mason & Jordy: The Heart and Soul Behind Mayhem Construction

I’m Mason, the proud owner of Mayhem Construction Ltd, and alongside my wife, Jordy, we’ve built this company with the same passion and dedication that we bring to every aspect of our lives. Our journey together began in 2015 when we married, and since then, we’ve accomplished so much, both in our personal lives and with Mayhem Construction.

Growing up in Palmerston North and Feilding, I always had a love for building, but my path here was anything but straightforward. After serving in the NZ Army and working as a scuba diving instructor, I returned to my roots in construction and found my true passion in creating high-end, custom homes. In 2020, with the support of Jordy and a push from a close friend, I co-founded Mayhem Construction with my brother, Hemi. Our mission has always been to combine quality craftsmanship with a client-centered approach, and together, we’ve built a company that reflects our values of integrity, teamwork, and dedication.

Jordy, meanwhile, has been my rock through it all. As an accomplished registered nurse in the paediatrics ward since 2013, her ability to care for others is unmatched. But her talents go beyond nursing—she’s also the heart of Mayhem Construction, managing the books and keeping our business running smoothly. Jordy’s role behind the scenes is vital, ensuring everything is in order while keeping me and the team on track. And she does all of this while being a full-time mum to our two children.Together, we’ve built not only a successful company but a life that reflects our shared values of hard work, commitment, and care for others. At Mayhem Construction, we don’t just build homes—we build lasting relationships with our clients, treating each project with the same care and attention as if it were our own. We believe in creating an environment where our team and our clients feel supported, respected, and confident that they’re in the best hands.When you work with us, you’re not just hiring a construction company—you’re becoming part of the Mayhem family, where every detail is considered, and every dream is treated with the respect it deserves.

WE PRIDE OURSELVES ON HAVING A CLEAR PROCESS

Step One

Let’s Get Started

You can either register your interest on our website or reach out to Mason directly. To make sure we understand your project from the get-go, we’ll send you a short questionnaire that helps us get aligned with your vision. Once we have that, we’ll schedule a site visit with Mason Bettridge, our Director, to kick things off.

Step Two

Let’s Talk Plans

Depending on your project, we’ll either meet you on-site or in the office to go over everything in more detail. This is where we’ll get a solid look at the project, review the site and scope of works, and have a good chat about the pricing process. We’ll also walk you through how we work with you and explain the next steps. If your project needs an architect, we’ll bring them in to start moving things forward.

Step Three

Crunching the Numbers

Once your developed plans are ready and submitted to the council, we get to work pricing everything out. When the numbers are ready, we’ll present a detailed quote, breaking down the costs and making sure all your questions are answered. This is your chance to dig into the specifics and make sure everything’s spot on before we move ahead.

Step FOUR

Making It Official

When you’re ready to proceed, we’ll get down to business with the contract signing. This is where we’ll agree on a start date and collect the deposit, making everything official. Once this step is done, we’ll take over the project site and get everything set up for the construction phase.

Step FIVE

Meet the Team and Break Ground

Now it’s time to meet the team who will bring your vision to life. From here, we’ll kick off the construction phase. You’ll get regular updates, and scheduled meetings to ensure we're always planning ahead towards the next stage

Step SIX

The Final Touches and Moving In

Once your home is finished, we’ll ensure it’s perfect and ready for you to move in. Professional cleaners will make sure everything is spotless, and you’ll gain access to our warranty and maintenance portal, giving you peace of mind as you settle into your new home. We’re always here to help with any questions or follow-ups, ensuring a smooth transition into your new space.

THE MAYHEM CONSTRUCTION GUARANTEE

These values guide our team’s approach to every project, ensuring that each home we build reflects the care, precision, and dedication that our clients deserve.

Mason and his team were great when ordering, installing and trouble shooting little issues renovating our kitchen. Our kitchen space wasn't completely straight forward as older homes can be, he came up with very practical solutions and has an incredible eye for detail. Would highly recommend!
Sara Smith
We would highly recommend Mason for any building alterations/new builds. Mason guided us with design ideas and materials for our covered deck area. The workmanship is outstanding and the attention to detail was fantastic. We are very happy with how the whole area was transformed.
