    Build Aotearoa 17: Platinum Homes with Sam Watt

    99 Waiwai Drive, Milldale north of Auckland looks like a regular new house in a regular new subdivision, but around 30 people visited the site mid-build to see why it's different. This showhome will be one of the Platinum Homes high-performance range. It's a SIP (structural insulation panel) construction and achieved a near Passive House level of airtightness. 

    I caught up with Sam Watt, the General Manager of Platinum Homes, Rodney.
