Rowdy Builders is a local Palmerston North building outfit. Decks, fences and pergolas are all we build, and we’ve been at it for more than a decade across Palmerston North, Feilding and the wider Manawātu.
On a typical deck, the old structure comes out and the piles go in on day one, framing follows the next day, then boards and rails. Fences move faster. Either way you get a start date, and we see the job through instead of splitting our time across three sites at once.
Longevity comes down to the unglamorous details: timber treated for exactly where it’s used, hot-dip galvanised or stainless fixings so nothing bleeds rust through the boards, posts and piles set deep enough, and every cut end sealed before it goes in the ground.
Want a straight answer on price and timeframe? Call us. We’d rather tell you upfront that a job is outside your budget than turn up and waste your Saturday.
It’s simple, really: three jobs done properly, a small crew you can actually reach on the phone, and pricing that holds up against anyone else quoting in town. Ten-plus years of decks, fences and pergolas across Palmerston North and Feilding backs it up.
Every quote spells out the timber, the sizes and exactly what’s included — no surprise extras later.
We stay small on purpose. The person who measures your job is the same one swinging the hammer, so nothing gets lost between quote and build.
Deeper posts on exposed sections, board spacing that lets water drain instead of pool, and fixings that won’t rust out on you.
Low overheads keep our pricing sharp. Put us up against any other quote you’ve got — we’re happy to compete.

We had a large fencing job done, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. The workmanship was excellent, the fence looks fantastic, and the attention to detail really shows.
The whole process was professional from start to finish, with the job completed to a very high standard. It’s clear that pride was taken in the work, and the finished result has made a huge difference to the property.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Rowdy Builders to anyone looking for a reliable, professional fence builder. Brilliant job and an excellent result.
We couldn’t be happier with the work from Guy at Rowdy Builders. From start to finish, he was friendly, professional and incredibly organised.
He coordinated all aspects of the work, including arranging the additional trades required, and kept us well informed throughout the entire process.
Everything was handled smoothly and professionally, and the end result was fantastic. We would highly recommend Rowdy Builders to anyone looking for quality workmanship and an stress-free experience
We recently had Guy and his ream construct a roof over the deck of our new house.
He was pleasant and punctual on the site visit and made a number of suggestions on how it could be achieved.
His quote was very reasonable and his timeline was stuck to.
We are very happy with the result and recommend him to anyone looking for a similar job.
We recently engaged Guy from Rowdy Builders to repair a wooden fence blown over in strong winds, and construct a medium size deck at our property.
From the outset, Guy was professional, approachable, and communicated extremely well, keeping us updated on progress and ensuring we knew what to expect at each stage of the project. The quality of workmanship was outstanding.
The fence repairs were completed to a high standard, and the new deck has completely transformed our outdoor area. It is clear that Guy takes pride in his work and pays attention to detail, delivering a finished product that exceeded our expectations.
We are extremely pleased with the result and would not hesitate to recommend Guy and Rowdy Builders to anyone looking for reliable, skilled tradespeople who deliver what they promise.
Three jobs, done right. Send through a photo and rough measurements and we’ll tell you what’s involved, or we’ll come out and measure it ourselves.
From a small landing off the back door to a full raised deck with steps and rails — we handle the whole build: removing the old structure, setting piles and framing, laying boards, and finishing the edges and stairs.
New fences and replacements, boundary or internal. A fence lives or dies on how well the posts go in and whether the line’s set straight before the rails go up — that’s where we put in the time.
Pergolas over decks, patios and entrances, built to stand up to Manawātu wind. We design around how you’ll actually use the space and how the sun moves across it.
Ring 06 280 1144 or send the form through. Give us a rough idea of what you need and where you are.
We’ll come out, measure up, check access, and talk you through timber and layout choices.
