A LITTLE LOOK AT WHAT’S ON THE GO AT WACKROWS! 🔨🪚🚪

From custom timber doors and windows to kitchens and cabinetry, there’s plenty happening in the workshop!

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the projects our team has been busy bringing to life.

🪵 Happy Father’s Day from Wackrows Joinery!

Here’s to the dads who taught us to measure twice and cut once… even if we didn’t always listen. 😄

To the dads who build, fix, create, tinker, teach, and somehow always have the right tool for the job — today’s for you.

At Wackrows Joinery, craftsmanship is something we’re pretty passionate about, and we know that for many of us, those skills started with watching Dad in the workshop, garage or shed.

So whether you’re spending today building something, firing up the BBQ, relaxing with the family, or enjoying some well-earned time in the shed…

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandads and father figures out there. 🔨🪚

From the team at Wackrows Joinery.

🏆 With awards on our minds this week, it's got us reflecting on some of our own favourites from over the years.

Best Door, Best Window, and Best Use of Imported Timber all stand out from past Master Joiners Awards — but it's the multiple Best Kitchen wins that we're probably proudest of, since kitchens are where we spend the most time getting every detail exactly right.

2025 was a particularly special year — our project "The Treehouse" took out Best Timber Project, Best Creative Use of Timber, AND the Supreme Award at the Master Joiners Awards. Three wins from a single project doesn't happen often, and we're still proud of it.

50+ years in this trade, and it's wins like these that remind us why we still love what we do.

Which of our projects do you remember from over the years? We'd love to hear from you 👇

🏆 Another huge congratulations to Pringle Building — this time for their stunning renovation "Turn-of-the-Century Charm" in Cambridge, which took out Regional Supreme Renovation of the Year, Regional Category Winner, and Regional Gold at the 2026 Registered Master Builders House of the Year, along with a place in the national Top 100.

This 100-year-old character home was completely transformed — new open-plan living spaces, a full extension, and all the modern comforts, while carefully preserving original details like the ornate ceiling and heritage stucco cladding and leadlight windows. A genuinely impressive balance of old and new.

We were proud to have played a part in this one, and even prouder to see it recognised at this level. Two wins for the Pringle Building team this year — incredible work all round. Congratulations to everyone involved 👏

🏆 Huge congratulations to the team Pringle Building on their outstanding result at the 2026 Registered Master Builders House of the Year — taking home Regional Gold and Regional Category Winner in the Resene New Home $2 million–$4 million category, and a place in the national Top 100!

"Down to the River" was no easy build — an eight-metre drop to the Waikato River and a tight six-metre road frontage meant this one demanded some serious skill from everyone involved. The result speaks for itself: a stunning cedar-clad home with the river views to match.

We were proud to supply the windows and doors for this project, and even prouder to see it recognised at this level. Well deserved, Pringle Building team 👏

🛏️ Furniture that's built to outlast the kids who use it.

We built loads of custom bunks and like everything that leaves our workshop, they're made to survive jumping, wrestling, "just five more minutes," and everything else bedtime throws at them.

50+ years in this trade has taught us one thing: good joinery isn't about how it looks when it's brand new. It's about how it's still holding up years down the track.

Got a project that needs to survive real family life? That's exactly our kind of job.

Reviews like this are why we do what we do. Behind every kitchen or custom build is a whole team — from the first measure-up to the final fit — and it means the world when clients notice the effort that goes in at every step, not just the finished product.

Thank you to everyone who's trusted us with their home. Comments like this keep us motivated to keep raising the bar.

🌱 Some of our favourite jobs start with a phone call that goes something like "I've got this timber… it's been sitting in the shed for years… but it means a lot to me."

Whether it's timber reclaimed from an old villa, floorboards pulled from a building being pulled down, or the good stuff Grandad set aside "for the right project one day" — we love it when clients bring us wood with a story attached.

It's not just timber at that point. It's a memory, a connection to someone, a piece of a place that mattered. Turning that into something you'll use every day — a table, a benchtop, a feature panel — is some of the most meaningful work we get to do.

If you've got timber like that gathering dust, don't let it sit there forever. Bring it in and let's talk about what it could become.
