We offer a range of materials and colours to choose from.

If you have specific dimensions and materials in mind, let us know, and we'll accommodate your ideas.

You will love our hand-over process!
We supply a complete hand-over booklet and walk you through it.
This includes our factory warranty, all other warranty information and other handy information about your new home.

Our fixed-price contracts cover design, construction, ex yard with no hidden costs. This normally includes:

  • Design
  • Construction of building envelope, cladding, insulation and lining
  • Fit-out including bathroom, kitchen and flooring.
  • Preparation for transport.

 

Normally excludes (We can quote for you):

  • Drapes
  • Appliances
  • Transport
  • Service connections and site works
  • Foundations
  • Off Grid services

Site works and service connections are usually not included, but ask us for a budget template to help you plan your project, or have one of our consultants help you.

It depends on your council and how you'll use it. Used as a permanent or secondary dwelling, this will typically need building consent; used purely as non-habitable space, it may not. We'll help you work out exactly what your site and council require.

From deposit to delivery, most projects run several weeks — the build itself happens in our Motueka factory while your site is prepared in parallel.

We deliver to most locations across New Zealand with insured transport, and manage site access planning, placement and setup. Tell us your proposed site location when you enquire and we'll give you an estimate.

Great cabins and even better to deal with. Justin’s been in the construction industry a long time and it shows — everything is solid, well built, and finished properly. His project management is spot on too, keeps things moving and hassle-free. Highly recommend Cosy Cabins.
