Foundation | Raglan Barn Home Build – Stage one

We finally broke ground on our family barn home project! Beginning with the site leveling and finishing stage one with a perfect coloured concrete slab. Ready for the barn frame. 👍

Suppliers:
• Qpod - Recycled slab pods
• Waikato Ready Mix - low carbon
• Peterfell - Concrete colouring

Trades / Crew:
• Raglan Excavations
• Wolfpack Foundation specialists

This is a dream come true - to finally build my own home. Weather has delayed us but we found a perfect window between rainy days to pour our concrete and achieve a perfect finish which will ultimately be polished!

Next up: The barn raising ✌️

Who doesn’t love a Barnhome? 🏡
Back to Nature & Heritage Timber Craft have teamed up to create stunning post & beam homes for Raglan locals, built with natural materials and timeless craftsmanship.

Right now, we’re building my own family home (Dylan) — which will also be our show home for anyone interested in having us craft one for them.

Follow along over the next 6 months as we bring it to life. 🌿
