Our team
Lachie Wilkinson
Founder + Project Management
Building has always been in my blood. I started on sites at 15, working on high-end homes and learning that quality, trust, and attention to detail are key to any great project.
At 25, I launched New Zealand’s largest fractional boat ownership program, managing luxury vessels for clients who demanded the best. I quickly saw the similarities between maintaining high-end boats and renovating high-end homes — both require trust, professionalism, and no surprises.
That’s why I started Yourtradie. Our goal is to make renovations simple and stress-free, handling every detail so our clients can enjoy exceptional results without the headaches. Clear communication and quality craftsmanship are at the heart of what we do, and it’s how we’ve built trust with clients across Auckland.
