SOME OF THE BENEFITS OF A LIGHT STEEL FRAME HOME
Light-steel homes are pre-engineered and arrive on site in ready-to-assemble kits. All components labelled, drilled, punched, marked and ready to bolt or screw together.
Every home is delivered with a detailed set of construction plans and assembly instructions and may be erected in 30% less time than traditional brick and mortar homes!
Light-steel-frame homes can be built on a variety of different foundation types and cladding options include conventional finishes such as brick, stucco or plaster.
The completed home is indistinguishable from a traditional brick and mortar house, while flexibility of design extends well beyond that of most traditional homes.
