The Lodge through the lens
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does The Lodge take to build?
Typically, the assembly process about 2 weeks for a team of 3-5 builders and requires a Franna crane or similar. This rapid assembly process is a key benefit of The Lodge’s design.
What do I do with the shipping container?
Our shipping containers are brand new, single voyage units. They can be re-purposed and integrated into your overall site plan, be quickly deployed as extra storage space if you prefer or simply sold to offset some project costs.
What site prep is required before delivery?
Your site must be levelled and cleared of obstructions. Footings or foundations should be prepared by a licensed builder based on our specifications.
Do I need to use a licensed builder?
Yes, because The Lodge is classified as a Class 1a dwelling under the National Construction Code (NCC), the construction must be overseen by a professional builder properly licensed in your local jurisdiction. That includes properly qualified Owner / Builders. Additionally, electrical and plumbing work must be carried out by licensed tradespeople.
What on-going maintenance is required?
The Lodge is constructed from durable, high-quality materials, and as with any house, the usual levels of routine maintenance will be required.
Can I expand or modify the home later?
Sure, you can (post-delivery) – but we do not offer any customisation to our standard plans. You would need to speak to a builder, architect and certifier regarding future expansion or modification of plans.
Is external decking included?
No, the decks we show in our collateral are for display and inspiration only. Talk to your chosen builder about requirements for this and any other post-delivery customisations.
What does VTAS Certification Package provide?
The VTAS 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 approval to get your Certificate of Occupancy issued. We remove the stress and simplify the process so you can focus on other priorities.
Can I elect not to take the Certification Package?
You can, but in that case, once you commence your own building and certification process, you will be ineligible to subsequently seek to access the service. Further, without using the Certification package we offer no guarantee, explicit or implied that the building will be successfully certified Class 1a or cyclone rated (CAT3).
Can I customise my Lodge?
While kit homes can be modified by a licensed builder, we cannot guarantee a modified kit will achieve certification or council approval. If you are seeking a custom solution, we recommend you speak to your builder & certifier before making any changes.
Does The Lodge suit sloping sites?
Yes, and we DO NOT require concrete slabs! Our range of engineered footing systems ensures that sloping sites can be easily accommodated. Note: footing costs are not included in product pricing and may incur additional cost depending upon site specifics.
What are your standard ceiling heights?
- Living rooms: 2.7m
- Kitchens and bedrooms: 2.4m
- Bathrooms: 2.3m
Do you include heating and cooling?
No. Heating and cooling options are provided on an individual basis to suit your site and personal requirements. We’ll work with you to determine the most suitable energy solution for your project.
Will power points be included?
Yes, power points for appliances are provided (e.g. for washer, dryer, fridge, convection microwave). Appliances are not included.
Will I need a septic tank?
If you have a remote site, not on town sewerage, you will likely require a septic tank. In this case, you will need to commission an LCA (Land Capability Assessment) and find out your local council requirements. We recommend engaging a local plumber to help you through this process.
Can I install solar?
Yes, solar panels can be fitted to your new home. They are a fantastic way of reducing your footprint and fossil fuel consumption, not to mention the long-term power bill savings.
What warranties and support are available after purchase?
Waterproofing, Plumbing fixtures, Steel structure, Hardware, Cladding, Roof sheeting, Aluminium frames and glazing – 7 years. Electrical & light fittings, Joinery Hardware and Floor finishes – 2 years. We provide a help-line service to assist during the assembly process and offer a full warranty claim management service.
Can I build on smaller allotments?
Small lots (<450m2 or <600m2 for rear lots) may have state or council-specific provisions. In some cases, a development application may be required.
Do I need extra car parking spaces?
Parking requirements depend on local council regulations. Additional parking may not be necessary for lots with two existing spaces.
Do I need insurance during the build process?
Yes, insurance will need to be obtained by the licensed builder or the owner builder. Costs and application process vary from state to state.
What are the additional costs beyond the purchase of the unit?
- Certification package
- Application fees
- Road freight from nearest Port of Entry to site
- Site prep / earth works
- Footing scheme (16 stumps)
- Building assembly
- Connection of basic services – power / water / sewage
I’m interested – what should I do first?
Request a preliminary desktop assessment – this process assesses eligibility for a ‘fast-track’ planning self-assessment pathway. If eligible, there will be no requirement to submit a Development Application which can be costly and ultimately unsuccessful. If not eligible, the project can still proceed but will require D.A. This service is offered by our partners VTAS.
I’m interested in buying a number of these units...
As an investment / to rent out / for a business – does that complicate the approvals process? Not really, it simply means that the entire scope of the project needs to be discussed so that a tailored services quote can be provided by our partners at VTAS based on the specifics. A Desktop Assessment is not suitable in these circumstances.
What material is used for structural components?
Structure: Steel beams with lightweight steel floor joists.
Walls: Lightweight steel frames with ‘hot rolled’ steel structural columns.
Roof: Lightweight steel framing.
