Your Local Structural Engineer for Home Renovations, Extensions & New Builds.
Kotare Designs
What we do
We provide structural engineering services for home renovations, house extensions, new builds, light commercial alterations, and seismic strengthening projects. Based in Wellington, we work with homeowners, builders, and architects across Kāpiti, Palmerston North and the Wairarapa to deliver practical, consent-ready designs that meet New Zealand standards.
Who we are
We’re Kotare Designs – a small, family-run structural engineering practice based in Wellington. With nearly two decades of experience, we take pride in delivering practical, consent-ready designs that help make the building process smooth and stress-free.
We work closely with homeowners, builders, and architects to bring projects to life—whether it’s a renovation, extension, or something completely new.
