​Richard Phiskie – Director
Richard Phiskie, owner and director of Dimension Building, entered the construction industry at the age of 20 and never looked back. Richard had always been interested in architecture, but could not envision himself working a desk job. Establishing Dimension Building in 2012 allowed him to combine his two passions. Richard gets immense satisfaction from working with his clients and seeing their vision come to life, and particularly enjoys getting on site and remaining hands on. Richard and his team are enthusiastic about design and specialise in architectural builds and renovations. 
​
If Richard is not on the job site, he is enjoying spending time with his wife Summer and two daughters - Scout and Juno. They have recently welcomed future All Blacks Star Solomon to the family. Aside from work and family duties, you may find Richard striving for a hole-in-one on the golf course. 
Summer Phiskie - Marketing
Summer is the wife of Director, Richard, and forms the other half of the family owned business. She has worked behind the scenes with Dimension Building since its beginnings, and is proud of the achievements of her husband and his incredible team. Summer can be found working on marketing, processes and procedures, liaising with clients, and everything in between! 
Summer is passionate about Dimensions Building as a whole, and particularly the well-being of the people in it. She specialises in translating "builder speak" into English, and ensuring clients are not only happy, but inspired, during their Dimension Building experience.
Shelly Porter - Administration 
Shelly was first introduced to the Dimension Building team when they built her home in 2014. The relationships that Shelly and her husband made with the crew were long-lasting, and when Richard called with a job offer in late 2017, Shelly jumped at the chance to work with Dimension Building again. She is an excellent communicator, as demonstrated by her relationships with valued clients and team members. Shelly is thrilled to be part of a company with great core values which align with her own, and a second-to-none team of genuine people.

Steve Brown - Foreman
Steve is a recent addition to the Dimensions Building team, but is a long-time friend and colleague of Richard and was actually his first apprentice, prior to him starting his own company. As Richard and Steve both shared a passion for the industry, they stayed in contact and remained friends after completing his apprenticeship. Steve is excited to be working with Richard again, particularly in such a tight-knit and passionate crew.   

Steve has been in the building industry for over 8 years and specialises in architectural carpentry. He has a genuine belief that quality craftsmanship is all in the details, and enjoys the challenge that this provides. Steve tries to see solutions rather than problems, and is excited to contribute to quality builds within a company that is passionate about delivering them.

Preston Street Testimonial

- BRENDAN & KAYE

Richard and his team completed our house in 2015. We knew exactly what we wanted and therefore chose a local builder who could deliver on time, budget and quality.

Passion for building was also a deciding factor for us and Richard and his team have plenty of that. We would go as far as saying they seemed to treat our house build as if it was their own.

The house seemed to evolve as it went up with additional features to suit our lifestyles.

To say we we re anything but delighted with the final product is an understatement and after having lived in the house for two years, it really feels like our home for life.

We remain eternally grateful to Dimension Building and would highly recommend Richard and his team for outstanding service and a quality build.

Lancewood Terrace Testimonial

- Jo & Glenn

We have recently had a new home built with the team at Dimension Building and can’t praise them highly enough! We are both VERY detail oriented and extremely fussy and Dimension Building had the same exacting standards and eye for detail. It was a pleasure working for such a friendly and fun team.

Special mention has to go to Matt and Jack our onsite team who were brilliant to deal with and, of course, Richard and Steven who nothing was a problem for. We would definitely recommend Dimension Building to all potential clients.

Climie Terrace Testimonial

- Simon & Kat

Our experience with Dimension Building was outstanding. This was our first build, we had planned a house but instead got a home! We received quotes from four different building companies. How Richard engaged and showed interest in our project really spoke to us. From the time we had agreed to use him and his outstanding crew, he made the project his priority and brought his creativity, passion and skill to the table.

He communicated throughout the processes really well, had great ideas and suggestions and an above standard eye for detail. It was obvious that he takes pride in what he builds and there were no shortcuts taken to make sure quality was the outcome! We could trust that his choice of subcontractors would reflect this as well.

We want to thank him and his crew for turning our dream into a reality and bearing with all our changes during the build so patiently.
