About Us

Brothers Rhys & Mike Gould are truly passionate about their business, Signature Homes Canterbury.

The Goulds joined the Signature Homes brand so they could give their clients absolute peace of mind. "We want our clients informed of all aspects of the build before they totally commit," says Rhys. "We don't want any nasty surprises for them. Our company takes the risk away. What we say is going to happen, is going to happen. We put all the cards on the table from the outset."



Since opening their doors, the Signature Homes Canterbury team have found huge satisfaction in their work. "I absolutely love dealing with new homes," says Mike, "People come in and we get to turn their dreams into reality."

Rhys & Mike were also attracted to the Signature Homes Brand because Signature Homes is so highly respected in the New Zealand residential building world. The company was originally established in 1983 under the ownership of Fletcher Challenge, and several current members of the organisation have been involved with the company since its inception.

The brothers see a close fit between their own high standards and those of Signature Homes. They are passionate about building and enjoy creating family homes most of all. "With Signature, we can build homes that people can be proud of – well built, well designed homes that will stand the test of time", says Rhys.

Rhys & Mike also feel strongly that the process of building a home should be enjoyable and an experience to cherish. "Life's there to have fun with," says Rhys, "And that's what we portray to our clients – providing a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that they enjoy being involved with."



"Combining our pride and passion for exceptional craftsmanship with the renowned quality, and proven systems and support of Signature Homes is a great opportunity to be better at everything that we do", says Rhys. "The result will be an even more rewarding experience for our clients, and some renewed variation and opportunity for our team to grow."

Signature Homes Canterbury work with several teams of expert local builders, subcontractors and architects. They are well regarded by suppliers and sub-trades and enjoy an enviable working relationship with the Local Territorial Authorities with whom they work. 

Where possible, they use local architects, contractors and suppliers, however they also have the benefit of access to a nationwide network of specialists through the Signature Homes network. Signature Homes choose their Supply Partners for their reputation for excellence within their respective fields.

Here are three handy tips to help us help you:

  • Consider your budget realistically before you get underway. Providing an accurate budget right from the start of the process helps to ensure you will get the best possible return from your investment.

  • We encourage you to define your design style. Create a folder with magazine articles and features of homes or rooms you like, include internal and external colours, fittings and fixtures, along with furniture ideas. This will be useful for all of the consultants who will be involved in your build.

  • Don't be afraid to tell us everything you have in mind for your new home. It's very important that we understand exactly what you want, particularly your 'must-haves'. If you don't tell us, you can be sure we'll be asking you lots of questions!

    Services We Provide:

    Design & Build

    Looking for ideas and inspiration? Signature Homes have a long history of building unique one-off 'Design & Build' homes which are specifically tailored to your requirements. Sloping sites, narrow sites, small sites, or sites with south facing views all require a unique creative solution, which we can provide at a fraction of the cost of an architect.

    Pre-Designed Plans

    Building quality homes is what Signature Homes has been doing for almost 30 years now, but what we've found is that some of our clients want the quality of a Signature Home on a more modest budget. So, we created the Pacific Collection of homes, a comprehensive suite of affordable pre-designed plans that provide practical modern design and exceptional value for money.

    Knock Down & Rebuild

    If you have a great section with an old home on it the possibilities are endless. You could knock down the old one and build the house of your dreams, or build two, rent one and live in the other, or sell one or both – the choice is yours.

    Subdividing Services

    Subdividing your property can be a great option potentially offering you very good financial rewards. Our team of experts will guide you through the process of subdividing your property from start to finish. Of course, if you are looking to build a new home on your property, we can help you with that too!

    Our Canterbury Team

    Our team based in Christchurch, operates in a strong, supportive environment with over 75 years combined experience. As a team, we are committed to quality and craftsmanship and work hard for our company. We even enjoy the ongoing competitions for the cleanest and most professional sites while we are on the job!

    Teamwork gives us the edge! We really look forward to the opportunity to work closely with you as you plan and then build what will be a very exciting project for all concerned.
