How much does property maintenance cost in Auckland for handyman, repairs, and renovations?

Pricing depends on job type, property size, and materials. As a guide: gutter cleaning starts from $249 (see Exterior Cleaning), fence and gate repairs are quoted after inspection (see Fencing), kitchen or bathroom upgrades are priced by scope (see Kitchen Maintenance and Bathroom Maintenance), and full renovations require a free on-site assessment (see Renovations). Bundling tasks in one visit often saves time and money.

What areas do you service?

We cover South, East, Central, West, and North Auckland — including Papakura, Manurewa, Flat Bush, Howick, Mt Wellington, Ponsonby, Albany, and more. We also take on project-based work in Hamilton and Huntly. See our full service area map for details.

Can we book multiple services together?

Yes. Many customers combine services such as fence repairs with gutter cleaning, interior painting with minor handyman repairs, or bathroom upgrades with kitchen improvements. Bundling reduces costs and minimises disruption — just tell us what you need when requesting a quote.

Do you offer Healthy Homes inspections or compliance work?

We don’t perform official Healthy Homes assessments, but we do complete repairs and upgrades based on your report — including door seals and draught stoppers, bathroom and kitchen extractor fans, moisture barriers, ventilation improvements, and related maintenance.

Are your services insured?

Yes. We are fully insured for property maintenance, handyman work, painting, and renovations, with strong safety practices on every job.

We aim to reply within 24 hours. Smaller jobs can often be estimated by email or phone; larger or complex projects may need a free on-site assessment to confirm scope and pricing.

Exterior Repairs Case Study

Soffit & Fascia Replacement After Water Damage — Auckland

Exterior Restoration Project | Dual Residential Units — North Shore

Project Summary

Service Type: Soffit & Fascia Replacement (Water Damage Repair)
Location: North Shore, Auckland
Timeline: 2 Weeks
Property Type: Residential - Dual Units
Category: Exterior Repairs & Property Maintenance

Project Background

Two adjoining residential units in Auckland had been experiencing ongoing water intrusion that caused significant deterioration to their soffit and fascia boards. Over time, moisture exposure weakened timber components and impacted the overall exterior appearance of the building.

The property management company required a full assessment and repair solution that would restore structural integrity, prevent future water damage, and maintain a clean, consistent finish across both units — all while minimising disruption to tenants.

DCW Services was engaged to manage the full exterior restoration process.

Our Repair & Replacement Process

1. Assessment & Planning

We completed a detailed inspection to identify the extent of water damage, structural risk areas, and replacement requirements. A staged work plan was created to ensure safety compliance and efficient execution.

2. Removal & Structural Repair

All damaged soffit boards and fascia sections were carefully removed. Affected framing was reinforced where required to restore stability and prevent future moisture intrusion.

3. Installation & Finishing

New soffit and fascia materials were installed using weather-resistant products suited to Auckland’s climate. Final alignment and finishing ensured a seamless appearance across both properties.

4. Site Coordination & Safety

Work was coordinated around tenant access and safety requirements. All work complied with NZ building standards and site safety procedures.
