About Us: Building More Than Structures, Creating Solutions
For us, it's always more than a shed. Each structure, from sheds to stables, is crafted to simplify life and meet your specific needs.
Specialising in farm, equine, and lifestyle buildings was an easy choice for us, raised in New Zealand's countryside. We know the farming sector's needs well and are passionate about aiding New Zealand’s outdoors community, including farmers and horse trainers, to enhance their businesses and land care. AgBuild, much like a family unit, focuses on top-notch work to simplify building projects and tailor services to fit your exact needs.
Our Team
"Taking a build from concept to completion is always a win. Getting to know the clients behind the project makes it even more worthwhile." – Geoff
After school, Geoff dove into building, learning his craft in the UK and USA before returning to New Zealand. In 2011, he launched AgBuild—armed with big ideas and a bigger toolkit. These days, he’s swapped the tools for tech, focusing on sales, strategy, and steering the ship (with fewer splinters). Geoff’s sharp eye for detail and knack for communication keeps projects running smoothly and clients in the loop. His focus on people and planning helps set every build up for success.
""We’re all about nailing down a good plan and keeping things running smooth. But for me, nothing beats seeing the finished job come to life."
Carl, our Construction Manager, grew up on a peaceful farm and spent nine years dairy farming—so he knows hard work and early mornings all too well. He then moved on to manage Maintenance and Services at Mighty River Domain, where he traded cows for clipboards. These experiences gave him top-notch project management skills, which he now uses to keep AgBuild’s projects running like a well-oiled tractor. In his free time, Carl loves diving and hanging out with family.
Justin ‘Waka’ Somerville is our talented foreman and a fully qualified builder who brings a ton of know-how to the AgBuild crew. He’s all about working in the great outdoors, teaming up with a solid crew, and watching each build come together—preferably without too many surprises. Off the tools, Waka’s either watching rugby, figuring out how to coach it without losing his voice, or spending quality time with family and mates.
Kimmy is our go-to expert for customer care, admin, and keeping the office humming—she’s the glue that holds it all together. A hardworking mum of two, she’s often out and about at community sports and activities with her kids. As she puts it, “I love helping Geoff and Carl make sure everything we do not only meets but exceeds our clients’ expectations.” Kimmy plays a key role in making sure every client has a smooth, top-notch experience from start to finish.
