Frequently Asked Questions
Building a family home or investment property is a big step — we’ve answered the questions we hear most to guide you every step of the way:
A prefabricated home is built off-site, in a factory, and delivered to your land as finished modules. Working under cover means no weather delays, tighter tolerances and a controlled quality check at every stage — then a crane sets the modules on your prepared foundations and the home is connected on site.
Our homes are designed with your year-round comfort and energy efficiency at heart. Inspired by passive building principles, they feature smart insulation, high-performance double glazing and airtight construction that naturally captures warmth in the winter and keeps things cool in the summer, keeping your energy bills wonderfully low.
Council requirements depend entirely on the size of your NOOK:
- Under 70sqm:
- A full building consent is not required. Only a Project Information Memorandum (PIM) is needed, which we notify the council of on your behalf.
- 70sqm and over:
- A full building consent is required, and this is completely included in our price.
- Site-specific building consents:
- Your local council will require a site-specific building consent, starting from $6,995.00.
Any third-party reports (such as geotechnical, surveying or civil engineering) are quoted separately upfront, for complete transparency.
Resource consents relate to environmental effects and district plan rules (like boundary setbacks), not construction. We work with local planners on your behalf to determine if one is needed.
Every NOOK is backed by a robust 10 year structural warranty and a 10 year weathertightness warranty on all new builds. In addition, we offer a 1 year maintenance warranty, alongside statutory protections under the Building Act and extended manufacturer warranties on materials and fittings.
Yes! From integrated solar power hubs and battery storage to self-sufficient septic and water filtration systems, we tailor solutions for remote locations without sacrificing luxury.
Yes. Council consents, transport, earthworks, drainage and landscaping are all priced and coordinated as part of your project, and finalised during our pre-construction phase, so the figure you sign is the figure you pay.
