Options to build your kit home
When it comes to building your new kit home, choosing a reputable local builder is always the recommended approach.
No matter which option you choose, you can be assured that your kit home will be constructed using the highest-quality materials and backed by our 20-year warranty. The most common approaches are:
Building it Yourself
If you’re a licensed builder, then building your new kit home may be the right choice for you. The kit will come with all components, a detailed construction manual, and any documentation required for council approval.
Project Managing
If you’re handy or a great project manager, then completing your owner builder course and building or managing the project yourself could be the perfect option for you.
Local Builder
Want a hands-off solution? Then connecting with a local builder who is licensed and familiar with constructing kit homes would be the right option for you to ensure a seamless build process.
