About Us
Classic Cabins is proudly family-owned by Richard & Tracy Griffith. We started Classic Cabins in 2018, building it from the ground up. Richard looks after our client deliveries and fit-outs, while Tracy runs the office and looks after the applications and lease agreements.
Richard is a self-employed Fitter and Turner by trade. So when he's not delivering our Cabins, he's maintaining machinery and equipment within the Nelson area.
As a family, we love and enjoy the outdoors that Nelson and New Zealand have to offer.
