Our People

With three generations of family behind us and a team we call family too, we bring experience, care and commitment to every home we build.

History

When Lindsay first strapped on his carpenters apron 45 years ago, little did he know that Jalcon Homes would become the brand name associated with quality living in Auckland. Over the years we have evolved to make our renowned quality accessible to more people through architecturally-designed medium and high-density homes.

Approach

We never compromise on quality, durability, or the happiness of the people who buy our homes. Our developments include shared and green areas that bring people together while giving them space. As Auckland grows, we’re building smarter and more sustainably, honouring the city’s history and protecting it for generations to come.
