An important distinction

What is a Wendy house?

In our range, a Wendy house describes the type of structure and its intended use—not one specific exterior material. Our two main options are Nutec fibre cement and log / pine timber.

That gives you a choice of exterior appearance and construction rate while keeping the purpose of the building in mind. A single garden room and a multi-room residential layout will need different specifications.

Wendy house FAQ

Questions before you request a quotation.

Start with the material, intended use and size. Your written quotation confirms the final layout, specification and included services.

Ask About My Project
What exactly is a Wendy house?
In our range, a Wendy house describes the type of structure and its intended use rather than one specific wall material. We build Wendy houses with either Nutec fibre cement or log / pine timber.
Can a Wendy house be built from Nutec fibre cement?
Yes. Nutec is one of our main Wendy-house building materials. The fibre-cement exterior can be painted for a residential finish. The standard starting rate is approximately R5,500/m² for qualifying projects from 28 m². Explore our Nutec houses and Nutec homes page for more detail.
What is a log or pine Wendy house?
This is our traditional timber Wendy-house style using pine or log-style exterior boards. The wood can retain a brown finish or be painted. The standard starting rate is approximately R4,600/m² for qualifying projects from 28 m².
Which is better: Nutec or log / pine?
It depends on your preferred appearance, budget and maintenance preferences. Nutec provides a fibre-cement exterior; log / pine provides a timber appearance and can also be painted. Both can be configured for the uses described on this page. Ask us to compare the complete specification for your project.
Can you build a 1 bedroom or 2 bedroom Wendy house?
Yes. The total floor area can be divided into bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, lounge and other spaces according to the selected design. See our 2 bedroom Wendy house options for that configuration.
Can a Wendy house have a bathroom and kitchen?
Yes. Bathroom plumbing for a shower, toilet and basin, kitchen plumbing and electrical installation can be included in the project specification. Kitchen cupboards are separately quoted unless specifically included in the approved quotation.
Do you build Wendy houses on concrete slabs?
The standard construction method is on poles or stilts with a timber floor. A concrete slab foundation can be assessed and quoted separately when that option is selected.
Does every Wendy house need municipal plans?
Requirements depend on the project, intended use, property and local municipality. Plan preparation and submission assistance can be selected where required. Separately pricing those services is not confirmation that permission is unnecessary for your property.
Are kitchen and bedroom cupboards included?
Kitchen cupboards and built-in bedroom cupboards are quoted separately unless they are specifically included in the approved quotation.
Where do you build Wendy houses?
We serve Pretoria, Pretoria North, Centurion, Midrand, Johannesburg and surrounding Gauteng areas. Selected projects in Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Free State and other South African locations can also be assessed. View our service areas .
Can I use the estimator for a structure below 28 m²?
The stated reference rates apply to qualifying projects from 28 m². Smaller structures require individual pricing, so the estimator does not apply those rates below the threshold. Send the dimensions and intended use for a quotation.
