OUR PROFESSIONALS
Meet The Team
Chris De Lury
Hi I’m Chris and I followed my passion from a young age and became a qualified carpenter in 2000 and have well over 20 years of experience in the Building industry. I have also worked as a project manager for bigger residential building companies, this really gave me a balanced perspective of how the whole building process works and how client satisfaction is top priority.
I set up Chris De Lury Builders with the intention to build quality; when you do it right the first time you save time and money in the long run. I really enjoy working with my team and can honestly everyone gives their 100%.
I look forward to meeting with you onsite or off to discuss any future projects you have in mind. In my spare time I love Mountain biking, Four wheel driving and going for treks up Mt Thomas and Grey with the family.
Alana Sullivan
Hi i’m Alana, I have a degree in Psychology and worked for Westpac bank for 9 years. I began the exciting journey of helping to form Chris De Lury Builders in 2016.
I love to see an idea physically come to life and being apart of the excitement a handover of a new home can bring.
You can expect to meet me either in the office or over the phone as I help handle any queries you have and make the process as smooth as possible.
Outside of work I loves outdoor treks with the family, surfing and upcycling furniture.
Devon Burson
You’ll find me onsite, and I’ll be happy to help with anything you’d like to discuss regarding the build.
Outside of work, I’m into building cars, downhill mountain biking, dirt biking, and basically anything that gives me an adrenaline rush!
