76 | Flexibility a point of difference Homes generally take 14 weeks to build. On a site with services installed the home can be insitu in two to three days, with drainage completed after that. from page 74 KDH Kiwi Designed Homes BUILDING “In recent times we’ve sent quite a few homes to Hawke’s Bay for that reason. We take the homes right through to full completion including painting, floor coverings, kitchen and bathroom, and with appliances installed. Some people even use our relocatable homes as their main dwelling — they are that good.” While customers choose from a range of plans and standard specifications, Steve explains that the layouts, specification and materials are regularly modified to suit individual preferences. “For example, we start off with a Hardiplank cladding system, but the customer can choose Linea, cedar or whatever they prefer. Each project is different. Providing that level of flexibility is very important to us, and a significant point of difference.” Homes generally take 14 weeks to build and be ready for transport to the customer’s site. The transporter takes the home to site, positions it, elevates it and then pours the foundation under the house, lowering it onto the foundation after a couple of days. “It’s quite a unique process, which we have been doing for a long time now. When the home gets to site, we carry out any touch up work required.” While there are many cost and efficiency benefits from choosing a transportable home, the customer is also saved the inconvenience of contractors onsite over a long period of time, and construction can continuing regardless of weather. “When the home arrives on site, if it’s a nice clear site with services installed, the home can be insitu in two to three days, with drainage completed after that. Within one to two weeks the home can be occupied.” Complementing the company’s range of transportable homes, is a diverse range of both contemporary and lifestyle homes. While the contemporary range is bespoke and high-end, the life style range offers stylish affordability.
