What Is Architectural Housing?

Architectural housing projects demand joinery that performs as well as it presents. These builds are often led by precise plans and custom specifications, where material quality, design accuracy, and installation timelines are critical. JB Joinery supports this process by collaborating early, identifying risks, and delivering finished joinery that integrates seamlessly with the broader construction programme.

The right benchtop depends on the environment and how it will be used. We work with stone, stainless steel, acrylic, HPL, and timber to suit design and durability needs. We’re happy to recommend options once project specifications are confirmed.

Yes, we can match veneer joinery to flooring or other timber elements. Our in-house team takes care to align grain, tone, and finish across surfaces for a cohesive final look.

We recommend hardwoods and other timbers that handle moisture and weather well, such as cedar or accoya. We’ll guide you based on your location, finish preference, and performance requirements.

Samples can be reviewed at our Christchurch premises. Once we’ve reviewed your plans or quote request, we can provide guidance on what to view and compare.
