This depends on your local council. We recommend checking with your council before starting construction to confirm requirements.Under current New Zealand regulations, even though houses with a floor area of 70 square meters or less may be exempt from requiring building consent or resource consent in some cases, construction must still be carried out by appropriately licensed professionals.This includes engaging a Licensed Building Practitioner (LBP), as well as certified plumbers and electricians, who are responsible for the works and must provide final sign- off upon completion.

The Lodge is constructed from durable high quality materials and as with any house the usual levels of routine maintenance will be required.

Sure, you can (post-delivery) – but we do not offer any customisation to our standard plans. You would need to consult a builder, architect, and engineer regarding any future extensions or modifications.

The Ready Homes team will work with you throughout the building process, liaising with partner certifiers, engineers and service providers as required. We will supply all necessary documentation to support certification and building consent to obtain your Code Compliance Certificate (CCC). We remove the unnecessary stress and simplify the process so you can focus on other priorities.

While all homes can be modified by a licensed builder, we cannot guarantee a modified unit will achieve certification or council approval. If you are seeking a custom solution,we recommend you speak to your builder or certifier before making any changes.
