Our process

Your journey to home construction starts with a no-obligation chat. We’ll listen to what you’re after, whether it’s a holiday retreat, second dwelling, or full-time home. We’ll talk about your site, budget, lifestyle, and wish list. You can ask us anything.

• We visit you (if local) or you can visit our show home
• Site access and power/water considerations discussed
• Talk through size, layout ideas, materials, and finishes of our entire range of relocatable homes

We draft a concept based on your needs and the model you’ve chosen. Want different cladding? Bigger windows? More storage? No problem, we’re flexible. Once the design’s confirmed, we prepare drawings and a build schedule. With all our tiny homes for sale we make the design and planning process simple, clear, and stress-free, the way building homes should be.

• Tailored layout design
• Council and code compliance discussed
• Quote and timeline provided for your approval

Everything is made in our Ohoka workshop by experienced tiny home builders. No outsourcing, no shortcuts. Just quality work using locally sourced timber and materials that meet NZ3604 standards, perfect for quality wooden homes.

• Precision timber framing, roof, and external cladding all the way to lockup stage
• Interior fit-out begins (kitchen, bathroom, insulation, etc.)
• Weekly progress updates of your home construction (photos or visits)
• You’re welcome to pop in and see your new build taking shape!

Once the shell is built, we focus on the custom features that make your home truly yours — shelving, lighting, colour schemes, and soft fittings. Every element is completed to the highest standard by experienced home builders NZ, ensuring our new homes are as functional as they are beautiful. This is the final step before your fully built home is ready to go.

• Paint and stain finishes applied
• Kitchen appliances installed (if chosen)
• Plumbing, electrical, and gas fitting completed and certified

We arrange transport and carefully deliver your portable home to site. Whether it’s a paddock in Canterbury or a remote bach spot on the West Coast, we’ve got experience delivering across the South Island, from coast homes to remote off-grid, eco-friendly homes and urban residential areas. Our team makes sure all of our new homes are delivered safely, efficiently, and ready for living.

• Site prep guidance provided in advance
• Home delivered and placed with precision
• Final inspection and walk-through with you

Just because we’ve handed over the keys doesn’t mean we disappear. We’ll check in after a few weeks to see how it’s going, and we’re always available if you have questions or need advice. That’s the difference when you work with trusted tiny home builders who genuinely care.

• Follow-up visit or call
• Warranty information provided
• Tips on maintenance and care
• Repairs or adjustments? Just give us a bell.
