Wendy house price per square metre

Start with the material. Then compare the complete scope.

Our Wendy houses can use Nutec fibre cement or log / pine timber. After the material, the final cost depends on floor area, rooms, services, veranda, foundation, windows and selected finishes.

Wendy house cost calculator

Calculate the house, veranda and selected extras separately.

Enter your main house area and preferred material. Add the veranda area separately so it uses the veranda rate rather than the house rate.

Main building: qualifying area × R5,500/m² for Nutec or R4,600/m² for log / pine.
Veranda: separate area × approximately R2,500/m².
Services: add an allowance only when the selected work is additional to the base scope. Do not add a service already included in your quotation.

Worked example: 50 m² log / pine + 6 m² veranda

House: 50 × R4,600: R230,000
Veranda: 6 × R2,500: R15,000
Calculated subtotal: R245,000

Illustration using the stated rates, not a package offer. No additional service allowance has been added. Final inclusions need a quotation.

For fibre-cement residential options, explore Nutec houses and Nutec homes or the dedicated Nutec house pricing guide .

What affects Wendy house prices?

The same size does not always mean the same price.

Square metres are the starting point. These details determine the complete specification.

01

Construction Material

Nutec fibre cement and log / pine timber have different square-metre rates.

02

Total Floor Area

Larger houses require more framing, boards, roofing, flooring and labour.

03

Number of Rooms

Internal partitions, doors and finishes change with the number and arrangement of rooms.

04

Bathroom & Plumbing

Bathrooms, toilets, showers, basins and kitchen water points affect the total cost.

05

Electrical Installation

Plugs, switches, lights, the DB box, cabling and certification affect the final specification.

06

Veranda Size

Verandas add flooring, support posts, roof structure and balustrades where required.

07

Foundation Type

Poles or stilts are our standard. Concrete slabs are quoted separately.

08

Site Location

Distance, accessibility and local site conditions affect logistics and final pricing.

09

Special Finishes

Custom windows, doors, cupboards and specialist finishes are priced separately where required.

Standard Nutec specification

What your construction price can include.

A normal residential Nutec build can include the elements listed here. The written quotation confirms the exact scope; do not assume every Nutec specification automatically applies to a log / pine quotation.

Finished Nutec interior with a varnished wooden floor — Interior finish example from the project collection.

Full Building Specification

Foundation on poles / stilts: Timber-supported raised foundation system.
Varnished wooden floor: Timber flooring with a finished varnish coating.
Aluminium windows: Standard windows according to the agreed layout and specification.
Aluminium sliding door: One standard sliding door where specified.
Internal doors: Normal internal doors for bedrooms and bathroom.
Ceiling & drywall: Residential internal finishing with insulation.
Interior & exterior painting: Standard painting in the selected colours.
Chromadek / IBR roofing: Pitched or flat roof according to the design and quotation.

Additional and separate costs

Check what sits outside your base scope.

Service values are not automatically extra charges. First check whether the work is already included, then account for additional requirements.

Full Electrical Installation

Approximately R22,000

Material and labour value for a normal residential installation. Add an allowance only when this is extra to the agreed base scope.

Plumbing Installation

Approximately R25,000

Labour and plumbing installation value depending on the final bathroom specification. Confirm its inclusion before adding it to the base price.

Veranda

Approximately R2,500/m²

Timber veranda construction calculated separately by floor area. Design, railing, roof and specification affect the quotation.

Concrete Slab

Quoted separately

Concrete foundation work where a slab is selected instead of poles or stilts.

Kitchen Cupboards

Separate quotation

Not automatically included in the standard Wendy-house square-metre rate.

Bedroom Cupboards

Separate quotation

Built-in bedroom cupboards are quoted separately where required.

Building Plans

Project-specific quote

Architectural or municipal plan services are separate where required for the project.

Long Utility Connections

Site-based quote

Main water, sewer and electricity supply connections have an agreed range. Longer runs may be quoted separately.

Unsure whether a service is included? Leave the calculator on “No extra service allowance” and ask us to confirm the full scope. That selection is not a claim that plumbing or electricity is included.

Wendy house price FAQ

Know what you are comparing.

The rate is a starting point. The final quotation confirms the size, material, layout, services and site requirements.

Ask for My Project Price

How much does a Wendy house cost in South Africa?

Our standard starting rates are approximately R5,500/m² for Nutec and R4,600/m² for log / pine on qualifying projects from 28 m². They are our business rates, not a national average. Final pricing depends on the complete project specification.

How much is a 28 m² Wendy house?

At the stated rates, 28 m² calculates to R154,000 for Nutec or R128,800 for log / pine before project-specific additions or adjustments. These figures do not establish the price of a photographed house.

How much is a 50 m² Wendy house?

50 × R5,500 gives R275,000 for Nutec. 50 × R4,600 gives R230,000 for log / pine. The final room arrangement, services and additional requirements still need to be confirmed in the quotation.

What is cheaper: Nutec or log / pine?

At our stated reference rates, log / pine is R900/m² lower than Nutec. That is a rate comparison, not a promise of identical specifications. Compare the full scope and selected finishes as well as the floor area.

Are plumbing and electricity included?

They can be included in the final project specification. The approximate values are R22,000 for a full electrical installation including materials and labour, and R25,000 for plumbing, depending on the project. The calculator adds them only as explicitly selected additional allowances. Do not add a service already covered by your quotation.

How much does a Wendy house veranda cost?

The standard reference is approximately R2,500/m², depending on design, railing, roof and specification. Enter the veranda area separately from the main house area in the Wendy house cost calculator .

Are kitchen and bedroom cupboards included?

Kitchen cupboards and built-in bedroom cupboards are quoted separately unless specifically included in the final written quotation.

Does the price include a concrete slab?

Our normal standard is construction on poles or stilts with a wooden floor. A concrete slab foundation is quoted separately when selected.

Can I get a price before a site visit?

Yes. Send your location, approximate floor area, number of bedrooms, preferred material and required services. We can prepare an indicative quotation and advise whether further site assessment is necessary.

Can I calculate a Wendy house smaller than 28 m²?

The rates shown apply to qualifying projects from 28 m². The calculator therefore does not apply them to smaller buildings. Send the dimensions and intended use through the quotation page for individual pricing.
