What Affects Wendy House Prices?
1) Size & Layout
Larger footprints improve cost per m² but increase total spend. Additional walls, bathrooms or verandas add labour and materials.
2) Material Choice
Nutec delivers superior moisture/fire resistance and modern finishes; Log offers rustic appeal and lower starting cost.
3) Insulation & Roof Spec
Ceiling insulation, roof ventilation and thicker boards improve comfort and longevity, with a modest cost uplift.
4) Windows, Doors & Security
Aluminium frames, burglar bars or security doors increase price but boost durability and safety.
5) Site Conditions
Slopes, access, soil conditions and distance (e.g., Botswana deliveries) may require extra supports, logistics or slab work.

Wendy House Prices – FAQs
Do your prices include electrical and plumbing?
Yes. Our turnkey Wendy House quotes include electrical, plumbing, drywall & ceilings, built-in cupboards, and painting (inside & out) unless otherwise stated.
Why is Nutec more expensive than Log?
Nutec’s fibre-cement cladding offers superior moisture resistance, fire performance and a modern finish. It lasts longer with less maintenance, so the lifecycle cost is often lower.
Can you give a fixed price?
Absolutely. After a site assessment and layout confirmation, we issue a fixed, itemised quotation with timelines and inclusions, tailored to your location.
