We met Nathan when we were renovating a 1950’s Nelson bungalow.

He project-managed the complete renovation, taking the house back to its original framework, reconfiguring rooms, building a new shower wet room and kitchen-diner.

From the first to the last meeting he handled everything, never letting any issue derail the project or bringing us problems – he just solved them, and kept going.

Nathan’s attention to detail is phenomenal, the standards he expects from himself, and his network of contractors are exceptional, not just workmanship but timeliness and communication.

From our first meeting we felt that we were in safe hands, the estimated costs were accurate as was the completion timeline. Nathan kept us fully informed as the project progressed, explaining what was happening and what the next steps were. We found this approach comforting especially in the initial stages when the main demolition had been done but there were still no clear signs of what was to come.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Nathan for your project.

In the second half of 2022, we commissioned WellDesignz Ltd to work with us to deliver an entirely new laundry in our home in Nelson. This included building construction, coordinating sub-contractors and arranging and installing cupboards, benchtop and new rimu door. Nathan Wells, principal of WellDesignz, project managed this work personally. The work was carried out to a high standard and met all our expectations within agreed timeframes. We found Nathan to be highly reliable, thorough, good with detail and firmly keeping to commitments along the way. We would be happy to recommend him for similar renovation work.

Not only are we delighted with the finished product, which fulfilled our vision to the tee, but Welldesignz made the process itself a pleasant experience, with outstanding communication and responsiveness every step of the way. Would recommend for craftsmanship and professionalism every time.

Welldesignz has just completed renovations – one bathroom being changed to a shower room/toilet and the other was my laundry changed to a bathroom/toilet. On meeting Nathan I immediately knew I could trust him to get the job done and he and his team did so with skill and detail. Both jobs were completed within the month. This was my first ever renovations experience. I have to say I was very impressed with Nathan, his communication was excellent, if I expressed what I wanted to happen in my limited experience he would guide me in what was the best option, he had my best interest at heart. His team were great and I got to know them which personalised the whole experience. A few laughs in between!! Top marks Welldesignz for getting the job done fast and efficient. I love my new bathrooms what a difference they have made to the feel of my whole house, I look on them with pleasure because they have been done so well, the end result was very satisfying…thank you.

We are very happy with the work done by Nathan, thank you for everything. We appreciate that renovations are difficult to price and complete, but Nathan was receptive and communicated well the progress. He co-ordinated the project and had a very hard working and quality team and we are delighted with the finished result.

My name is John Macsmith. My wife and I purchased a property at Trafalgar Square Nelson in February 2019 and began planning an extensive renovation which would change the property completely.

We have significant experience in renovations having renovated 10 properties in 3 different countries over 20 years. These properties have all been properties we have lived in so we are very particular about the quality of the work in particular the finishing.

This renovation comprised complete gutting and re building of 2 bathrooms, demolition and rebuilding of the kitchen, removal of walls, removal of some windows and general upgrades of the house.

When we met with Nathan we explained the importance of communication as we would be overseas for the duration of the project. His communication was excellent, both timely and detailed. Nathan’s role was significant as he was responsible for the bathrooms and kitchen.

We are now in residence and give this testimonial having had time to appreciate his work and identify any defects. The standard of work carried out by Nathan is outstanding from the visual effect to the smallest detail.

We have no hesitation in recommending Nathan and would be happy to confirm this testimonial verbally.

Nathan of Welldesignz has the rare talent of being able to deliver exactly what the customer wants. We are extremely satisfied with both large projects Nathan undertook for us, especially one that he designed just from our verbal brief.

We have used Nathan twice, first to install a new kitchen, then the second time to renovate bedrooms & toilet area. We found him extremely reliable & professional in all aspects of his work. He listened to all our needs & wants, and steered us in the right direction. His subbies were also exceptional and everyone cleaned up at the end of each working day. Will definitely recommend Nathan and will be getting him back in the future.
