ABOUT
Experience and Dedication
Brendan Andrews qualified as a cabinet maker in 1998. Since then, he has worked for several companies in New Zealand and in the UK where he spent six years as a contractor installing kitchens. He returned to New Zealand in 2008 and started his own business, Inhouse Design and Concepts Ltd, which is now based in Beachlands, near Auckland.
His many years of working in this industry has seen him gain a wealth of experience and understanding of kitchen design and installation. Brendan’s passion for his work sees him involved in every step of the process. This allows him to establish a close business relationship with his clients that gives him a unique understanding of what they require.
Just above, you see one of the first shelving units Brendan designed and built after returning to New Zealand. This project led to lots of recommendations.
Years later this still happens, happy clients are the source for future projects.
Allow a few months before Brendan can actually take on new projects, this allows for thorough planning and ordering of material.
Testimonials
“We are delighted by the transformation that Inhouse Design & Concepts has brought to our home and its awfully dated kitchen-dining area. It looks so much larger than before!
Brendan's advice during the design process was invaluable. The quality and accuracy of his build is exceptional. Our splashbacks measurer (not yet installed) was amazed at the sheer trueness of the cabinets and their installation.
The materials Brendan suggested are top quality, match by his workmanship. The end result is much better than we would have dared to hope. Highly recommended.”

“I was delighted that Brendan was recommended to me as he is a delightful young man with immense talents in making and fitting kitchens.
When he promises things to you they are done. He arranges his sub-contractors to come one after the other on the day and time arranged and I have never had to wait for a job to be done.
He goes out of his way to help and will go the extra mile to do so. The whole experience was pleasurable despite the upheaval.
I have written this testimonial because I cannot speak highly enough of his expertise and management and would recommend Brendan without hesitation to anyone wanting a beautiful kitchen at a reasonable price.”

“When we were planning the renovation of our old house, we had some very specific ideas about how we wanted our kitchen to look.
That look was a little different to what most people were doing and I quickly discovered that none of the bigger kitchen 'chains' could be flexible or creative enough to produce what we wanted.
I was recommended Inhouse Designs and went along to see Brendan. We shall also be getting him back again soon to build in some bookcases.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Inhouse Designs if you are planning a new kitchen or bathroom, or just need any cabinet making jobs done.”
- Gerard Bourdillon
“Brendan from Inhouse Design & Concepts has designed and built multiple areas in our home over the last 3 years. These have included a laundry/kitchenette, a display cupboard and shelving space and outfitting of several cupboards. He also designed and built us a stunning large kitchen and scullery.
Brendan’s workmanship is outstanding. Our completed areas are just beautifully crafted and finished to a very high standard. We have found him honest and upfront to work with. He always delivers on promised time-lines coordinated easily with other trades people taking the pressure off us and ensured that we were very happy with the finished product after installation.
We found his pricing to be very competitive and fair and truly appreciated Brendan’s personal integrity when it’s been a really difficult time to get work done with the challenges of the last 2 years and multiple lockdowns here in Auckland.
He helped us stay on track with our designs, listened to us, had great ideas, kept us on budget and helped us through each stage of the process.
Thank you, Brendan ! Mostly thanks for our gorgeous new kitchen and scullery.
