We’re proud to introduce Peter Wolfkamp, New Zealand’s Resident Builder, as a brand ambassador for Ambiance by STÄRKE.
Since early 2025, Peter has been part of the Ambiance family, and it’s a partnership that feels like a natural fit. Peter has spent decades championing better building practices and helping everyday New Zealanders understand what it means to have a warm, dry, comfortable home. That’s exactly what Ambiance is all about.
A builder who gets it
Peter Wolfkamp is one of New Zealand’s most respected voices in the building industry. With a career spanning historic Devonport villas, ultra-modern townhouses, rustic country estates, and even a 16th century farmhouse in the south of France, Peter brings a rare combination of hands-on experience and technical depth.
“The Wolf” is the site foreman you’ve watched on The Block NZ since 2012, the face of Creative Living on TV3, and the host of Sunday Mornings with the Resident Builder on Newstalk ZB, a show reaching nearly 200,000 listeners every week.
But beyond the media profile, Peter is a Licensed Building Practitioner, a NZGBC Homestar Home Coach, and someone who genuinely cares about the quality and performance of what goes into New Zealand homes. Throughout his career, he’s championed quality materials, skilled workmanship, and getting the details right.
Why this partnership makes sense
New Zealand homes have a problem. Many are still fitted with old, inefficient windows that let in cold air, damp, and outside noise. Most homeowners don’t realise how much of a difference high-performance joinery can make to their comfort, their energy bills, and the long-term health of their home.
Peter has been talking about this for years. So have we.
As a brand ambassador for Ambiance by STÄRKE, Peter represents values that are central to everything we do. Peter’s approach to building has always been grounded in doing things properly with attention to detail, performance, and lasting quality. It’s a philosophy we share.
Ambiance uPVC windows and doors are made right here in Auckland, built to perform in New Zealand’s harshest conditions, from extra high wind zones to the UV demands of our climate. They deliver thermal and acoustic performance that aluminium simply can’t match, and they’re built to last the life of the building.
When we met Peter, the conversation felt less like a pitch and more like a meeting of minds. Someone who has spent his career pushing for better building outcomes, talking to a team that has spent years making products to deliver exactly that.
At Ambiance by STÄRKE, we believe thriving communities start with warm, healthy homes. Peter believes the same thing. Having Peter in our corner, and genuinely behind our products, means a lot to us.
Whether you’re building new or upgrading an existing home, we’d love to help you experience the difference.
