Nutec Wendy Houses
What is Nutec?
Nutec is a trade name for cement fiber boards. They are made by mixing man-made fibers with portland cement and forming into either large sheets or planks that mimic pine boards (sometimes with a pattern added to look like wood grain)- these are sometimes referred to as handiplanks.
Nutec is the perfect material for Cape Town's harsh climate. It is:
- impervious to rot
- UV resistant
- easy to paint and maintain
- impervious to pests (rodents and bugs)
- very long lasting
Flat board wendy houses are lower in cost than planked wendy houses, though they are harder to maintain and often do not look as attractive.
How do we use it?
Nutec is only the cladding on the outside of the Wendy house. It's purpose is to keep the weather out, and not intended to provide any structural strength or rigidity. It is merely an attractive cladding for the underlying structure.
The strength and rigidity of a timber framed house comes from the foundations and the frame. Foundations can be either concrete slabs (permanent) or wooden pallet (non-permanent)- the former being more solid and rigid, but requiring stricter planning permission.
By using SABS as our minimum standards we ensure that all our Wendy houses and Nutec homes are solidly built and will stand the test of time. We use quality timber in all areas of construction.
Full service
Electrical
We have full time, professional, qualified electricians doing fully certified SABS compliant installations. Your safety is our biggest concern- electrical work is not to be done by just anyone. We take this commitment very seriously!
Plumbing
Plumbing is another trade in which complying with SABS protocols is essential if problems are to be avoided later on. This is why all our plumbing work is done by qualified professionals and fully certified. A leaky pipe in a wooden framed structure can cause catastrophic damage- don't take that risk by using cowboy installers.
Painting
What's the difference between a Nutec home and a garden shed? The quality of the interior finish. We have the skilled artisans capable of finishing you a space that you are proud to live and work in. Why not have your Nutec home ready to just move straight into, looking smart and professional.
Partitioning
Large Wendy houses need dividing up to make them useful. This is done by creating internal walls in the same timber frame panel technique as the outside of the structure. Internal walls can also be useful to hide pipes and wires. If you want to turn your wendy house into a home then you will need partition walls.
Plastering
Plastering walls, or skimming, can really finish off a plasterboard interior- no joint marks, no imperfections, just smooth, perfect walls and ceilings. Our professional artisans create the perfect canvas for that amazing finish, making your wendy house a home.
Kitchens & Bathrooms
A quality home needs a quality kitchen and bathroom. From simple sinks and a bit of tiling to full bathrooms that would look at home on a magazine cover. Our skilled and qualified artisans are on hand to deliver the home of your dreams.
