About this listen

Simon Wandsborough joins the pro clima Podcast to discuss his journey from outdoor instructor to eco-conscious builder and the thinking behind his business, Third Little Pig. He shares how growing up in New Zealand and completing an adult apprenticeship shaped his focus on building better, more comfortable, and energy-efficient homes.
The conversation explores high-performance building principles such as passive solar design, insulation, airtightness, and quality windows, alongside the need for better education and early collaboration between clients, architects, and builders. Simon also reflects on the limitations of New Zealand’s building code, common misconceptions around cost and airtightness, and what’s next for Third Little Pig.

Special Guest: Simon Wansbrough.
