About Us
McBrimar was established in Oamaru when, in search of a new home in 2014, Mike Lowe came across a plot of untouched, subdividable land. Knowing of the area’s need for new, warm, comfortable houses, McBrimar Homes was born.
Initially founded as a father-son business by Brian and Mike Lowe, the McBrimar team rapidly grew as demand for our builds increased. Now headed by Mike — following Brian’s well-deserved retirement in 2021— McBrimar builds an average of 30 homes per year. And that number’s on the rise.
As a registered Master Builder, we uphold the highest craft standards and have earned a reputation for producing quality homes on time and budget. We value our client relationships so ensure we’re alongside you every step of the way, from initial concept plans to move-in day.
Like your classic Southerners, we get the job done in an honest, hardworking fashion. We don’t cut corners, we only work with the best, and we’ll always tell it like it is. That’s why we provide a fixed-price contract right from the word go.
Whether you’re looking to build a unique custom design, purchase one of our trusted Home & Land packages, or have an existing set of plans for us to work from; our experienced, local team will work with you to find the best way forward — all with a fixed-price contract.
