From a German perspective, I am always surprised how much our house construction in Germany/Europe differs from so many house construction techniques in the world. This house in the video is actually made of wood with some panelling. Even the simplest houses in Germany are built with massive concrete walls. I really wonder how this very different construction technique came about. Because there is not such a huge difference in temperature between Germany and New Zealand. On average, Germany is perhaps 3-4 degrees Celsius colder than New Zealand. But I can hardly imagine whether that justifies the building site, which is much more massive. There is also no house in Germany without a basement, which seems to be unusual in many other countries.
I would guess the wooden structure is because of earthquakes.
Hey Mr H8ter No1.
I have had similar queries to yours from lots of European trades people regarding NZ construction methodologies.
Some of the primary reasons for the difference in construction elements and methodologies is because New Zealand has some of the most extreme weather variability in the world - one day it can be 35 degrees and the next day it can literally be snowing. I mean it, I've experienced it. Then you can get all the other weathering elements in between, in any given week.
Furthermore, with regard to concrete (I love concrete), my understanding is that NZ is very earthquake prone, and therefore, reinforcing concrete and placing lots of it (walls and foundations) on land which can't handle that much weight without serious resources put in to making the land solid bearing, is problematic and costly. The land here is a patchwork of various technical categories which are more earthquake and flood prone than other parts of the world.
Also we grow lots of trees and timber is much cheaper. Timber also has a lower carbon footprint than concrete. Timber is also flexible and can potentially stand up to an earthquake quite well......depending on how far away the epicentre is and how strong the quake is....
Anyway, that is my understanding and I would be wrong. There are lots of other reasons too. There are lots of variables.
@@stryka777 That makes sense. Thanks for the information
Stick to how you build in Europe. Miles ahead of typical building in NZ. Our building code lets us build to a very basic standard, but we should be building to a much higher standard. We've continued to build using "match sticks" which we did initially because of the abundance of trees we had in NZ when we were clearing land for residential building. Essentially we haven't evolved the bulk building we do beyond this outdated technique since then.
@@garypatterson9593 and how much more would this cose?!
I like it, the layout is simple, but functional! The house is very well integrated into the landscape, the style is in harmony with nature. Nothing superfluous! Cool!
Glad you like it :)
I have so much respect for builders… work of art! 👏
Strange music... Better add lofi or smth
lol lmao.
Honestly, watching those videos make me think "mhh doesn´t look to difficult" and "i could do that myself" while in reality i´d never be able to :D
House without roof is an ugly house.
As an American construction management student I have so many questions, but found this build to be very unique and educational. Very different plans in NZ compared to here in North America.
here in NZ they lean towards concrete pads which I think is more of a risk i.e., flooding and cracking from earthquakes
@@akuapiatas which alternative to concrete would you see as better?
@@big9873 Pier and Beam would be the alternative to a Concrete Slab.
@@Wisdomisgood448 This is kind of like that the slab is tied into all those piers they drove into the dirt.
@akuapiatas a lot of that in california as well. Monolithic slabs.
For owner builders… this type of content is needed… amazing video.. looking to build in australia as owner builder…
Glad you enjoyed it and good luck with the build
A wood house in australia, great idea against fire :D
@@johannsimonot haha majority of homes in Australia are timber. Ones that are routinely exposed to fire aren’t. Seems simple right?
@@soothingsounds7058 An interesting fact: Houses made using old growth lumber have higher resistance to fire because the wood is actually denser and burns more slowly!
So much effort into this vid lads well done love it. More!
Awesome work! Absolutely love this video!
Thank you very much!
Just wondering what are the timber posts for that were driven into the ground?
@@David-nk3kq the piles are used to support the concrete when the grounds' load-bearing capacity is not up to scratch - note, not all jobs require this option.
Very lovely structure.
Very tastefully modern with a very inviting cabin feel to it.
*Wow That came out amazing. Great build. Im sure the owners love the build*
cheers
Pink lumber is cute! 😅
Wicked location and build man. Lovely work.
Really good overview man of the whole procedure, and a sick soundtrack to go with it.
I have a Finnish Log cabin at the end of my garden as a salon and it's so solid if you insulated it you could easily live in it and easily last 25+years. Took 4 days to build.
I'm surprised that you had fine weather in Upper Hutt. All jokes aside, that's probably the best place to build up that way
what a cool home, I can't imagine how beautiful after adding furniture❤️
And landscaping
Questions. So many questions. Why the wood pilings under the foundation? The framing was obviously pre-assembled, but what is the pink stain? Is that some sort of insect/water proofing or simply the supplier's mark? All the cross members between the studs gives significant racking strength. Earthquake requirement? Is rockwool insulation typical in NZ? Is the sheathing bonded to a foam layer like the ZIP system in the States? Taping the seams? I would have loved to see a window install detail to see how water-proofing is achieved. Would have also liked to see the rain screen install under the rock facade.
Enjoyed the whole last clip.
haha cheers
never knew new zealand has pink trees... very cool
Great use of drone shots.
Thanks 👍
I now believe that every country have different ways of building a house, here in my country a $2Million home is like a mansion already and everything is built with concrete and steel, the wood are only use for the mold and frame of the house except for the doors of course. Anyway the build is great, good job.
I’d like to know how much something like this would cost! Super cool house!
Noice, thanks for sharing!
Cheers 👊🏼
great job! nice video!
Thank you very much!
Superb build though, the stone cladding is lush.
Fantastična lokacija
good job
Thanks
Pink wood, wow they are taking over the world I see
Great question, watch this video

The explosion legit made me lol.
haha 😂
What was the cost to build this place not including land?
In Canada that would be about 1.5 mill and another 650,000 for the land. Looks like about 3500 sq ft give or take. No basement which might be an issue here in Canada. Pile driven foundations are not a common technology since basements are prevalent here. That would necessitate a full truss design and basement construction using poured rebar to create a complete unit that would move as a unit in the event of ground shift and manage the truss system that supports the main floor. Those would add a few percent onto the budget for materials engineering and specialized labor. Some issues may arise with building code compliance being different in Ontario for example the in NZ. But the figures should be decently in the ballpark. Fit and finishes could alter the price by 10% either way as well as insulation and hard surface choices such as the flooring could impact estimate. Resale value could be about$ 2.54 million after a couple of years.
I could see this costing around $500k to build where I live
You wouldn't want to know trust me probably 2, 3 million in Wellington NZ easy 250 k plus gst on land
@@Evostay420 To small/not enough upgrades to hit that $$ mark
@@PWingert1966 wow ok they rip you off then in Canada. That's nowhere near a reasonable "price" and most definitely not resembling the true value. I mean this slab isn't even thermally decoupled, it's framed with little sticks and I could go on and on. I've been to Canada too, Ive seen your houses. Im from Switzerland and our codes and methods are leaps and bounds beyond this and absolutely no one would pay that for this. In fact, i get a significantly higher quality build here for a lot less than 2.5mil. But hey, you do you couldn't care less what sort of mortgages people put up with. But let me tell, they rip you off.
Amazing
thanks :)
good afternoon, cool house!! Where can I see the project of this house in more detail? 🧐
House looks great! Awesome job! Any chance I could see the flor plans of the house in its final stage?
That's like asking to see his girfriends pussy. You think he's dumb?
@@stefanagiovlasitis2669 Guess Im the dumb one than? :)
Dad: “come outside, I need your help with something real quick”
The project:
haha
Only thing with building in NZ is wait time for materials plus the cost of materials. Red tape that the local government put in place
Casa impresionante, es preciosa 💖
muchas gracias
Anywhere we can see materials used? For exterior part of the house, the combo with the bricks looks nice
Félicitations très beau projet qui réunit le moderne et rustique avec les pierres naturelles.
solar panel good for roof
What is the pink color on your lumber? It seems to go away slightly with drying/aging? I love the way you put heaps of cross bracing between all the studs....wish they did that here is the US..... Also love how you scaffold around....don't see that in the States either.
Great question, watch this video
ruclips.net/video/4eginJL1nKE/видео.html
@@nzbuilder I did! 1st thing I said to my Mrs was "Look i've inspired one of NZ builders videos!!"
Awesome. Total cost please?
Last shot is when the customer's credit card declines
Look so gud
From an Aussie; why the poles driven into the ground pre slab pour? And re that; why treated pine as opposed to concrete poles?
Also, if not too rude, how much does it cost to build in NZ as Aussie houses are currently very $$$$?
And .... you've built a very attractive house in a beautiful area!
Timber Driven Piles to good ground underneath. After the Christchurch Earthquakes ground testing requirements went nuts and now 50% of sites are engineered.
Way cheaper to Build in Aussie, I've heard unto to half as much. Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Hi. Are the plans available for this home. ?
Love is best.
very nice, what are the very large white styrofoam blocks you put in before the slab was poured? are these to save on cement costs or as thermal insulation or both? Do they have a proper name and what size thickness was used?
Waffle pods
Amazing!
Curious, as a foreigner, what sorta overall budget should we allocate for a build like this (similar geo-location and size) in NZ?
800k - 1mill
why did you build a long straight house? is there any advantage of the shape?
Hi, What was the final date for completion as this was missed? Thank you
Josh, any info on the water containement?
Hi. Nice Build.
Just a question about the wooden pile that was driven to the ground. Was it connected to the cement slab?
If so, how was it connected? Just curious.
I would assume due to the soft clay materiel the wooden pile were driven intill it possibly hit rock or hard surface, I think it stops the slab from slumping and cracking over time
@@michaelbren3635 I never said it would be set in concrete it would just be used to find a hard surface so the pad would sit on it
the piles are used to support the concrete when the grounds' load-bearing capacity is not up to scratch - note, not all jobs require this option... & no, the slab isn't connected to the pile - rather, it is poured over the top...
Ev gerçekten çok güzel olmuş. Fakat zemini sıkılaştırmak için neden ahşap direkler kullandınız ve neden zeminde suya karşı bir yalıtım yapmadınız? Ayrıca drenaj sistemi yaptığınızı da göremedim. Betonarme bir bina bile yapılırken temel altına ve bodrum kata inanılmaz su yalıtımı önlemleri uygulanır. Aksi taktirde beton bile bir yere kadar suya dayanır.
Hey, bu Yeni Zelanda'daki standart yapıdır. Betonun altında yükselen nemi durdurmak için su geçirmez bir membran vardır. Yumuşak topraklı yerlere tahta kazıklar çakılır. Sahadaki su depolarına drenaj yapılmıştır.

What does NZ consider this type of home? Here in the USA, carpenters hate pre built modular homes. As easier and cheaper, did you have the option to build on site? Or was this a plan that was bought?
I don’t think this is a modular home. The frames were just built off site and assembled on site. He has a video about that on his channel.
@@RyanStuart85 oh ok thanks! Definitely gonna go check it out!
This is Deffinately not considered a modular/pre-built home here, usually framing is done off-site mainly for time efficiency, while the site&foundations are been done others can be in the workshop assembling the frames at the same time. Saves time on-site.
what is the size of the house?
where can i find the layout?
🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️Good people and strong Thank You.
We live in a seismic zone V so is it okay for us to built these kind of house?
mate that view at the back...
its an Awesome outlook
why is the lumber pink?

Can someone tell me the 8-bit song that starts at 4:02 . Thanks
Can this type of Homs be built in Charles county Md
How much approximately is such house in condition we see at the end of video?
man who ever is moving the camera is killing my eyes.
😬
I always wonder how people put up things heavier on this kind of wall
Using wooden piles in semi dry conditions?
Great built...bad video present..i wish more detail from A to Z
Does the pink mean treated wood? Are these factory builds wall sections?
тепло у вас в феврале
All that work to blow it up smh jk nah fr Upper Hutt turning fancy af wtf who would have thought 😂
Upper Hutt is the new promised land :)
Im interested in the foundation. What's the purpose of the foam if its not as part of a raft. Aside from the environmental question, why not just pour concrete?
Insulation?
@HAZYFALKIRK but it didn't appear yo cover the whole ground, so it would have cold bridges all over, or did I not notice covering between the blocks.
No need for that much concrete, foam is used to save concrete (very expensive in NZ), I am just guessing here.
@@luofubo
And guessing wrong
Is it a common thing in that area to not lay plywood on the roof before the metal roofing is installed? I would think plywood would add some insulation, soundproofing and strength but I'm unfamiliar with building norms and regulations in that area obviously.
not common at all for sheathing the roof... in NZ, it's trusses/purlins/iron. on the underside (ie working down) it's trusses/ceiling battens/insulation/plasterboard
How much it cost to build this new entire house?
How much did that entire house build cost you? And is the square foot?
Nice home, but I'd be a little concerned about drainage on that property.
What colour is the outside cladding?
is this the home building company that I keep seeing on instagram?
What's with the pink wood?
cross bracing the framing for earthquakes ?
Hi where is this build
Why is the wood pink?
Probably to make you ask why
It is chemical oxidation of Boron preservative to keep the wood in good condition.
@@aurafangz3635 thanks. To us Americans pink = breast cancer awareness. Maybe he thought it was a special order?
@Life in Tornado alley oh yeah that’s definitely the first thing I thought too. We’re so alike.. so brilliant
@@cadenbarlow6949 lol I'm kidding. I've never seen pink wood either. I tried figuring it out
Would’ve love to be apart of this build. Small question though whys weatherline gib replaced rab?
GIB Weatherline® Rigid Air Barrier Systems
Im assuming your referring to Hardies RAB? at the time there was crazy supply issues so we sourced this option instead
Why the wood was pink in the installation but than changed to normal color???
Are the wooden piles to stabilize the soil and anchor the foundation? Don't think I've seen that before in land that looks relatively "flat" .. was there something going on with the soil there? Thanks.
NZ sits right on major fault lines, my thought would be to combat earthquakes
They do it in the Netherlands because of wet soil / moving ground.
So the house doesnt sink if the soil shifts, the piles are driven to help carry the weight of the structure above
What's that purple RAB?
what is Tree name that is used in houses wood construction ???
Pinus Radiata is the main one we use, grown over 30 years or so
Watch this factory tour ruclips.net/video/8RzKzU3wykk/видео.html
do you ever build a house that has a basement?
I'm sure there is a reason but is there any concern with the home sitting in a "bowl"?
Hey its not a bowl, the section dips away on the back / side. Those two mounds are called "privacy bunds" and came with the section, they opted to keep them and will plant them out
Consider different type of music for next time
what do you suggest - open to ideas
@@nzbuilder more soft. not that wild. this type of videos are satisfying you need music closer to happy and soft
Why are wooden piles used under slab foundations?
timber driven piles down to good ground - as the soils load bearing capacity was not adequate to support the foundation
Where i can get a house 🏠 plans? Wanna build similar house 🏡
*_It's always interesting to see construction in another country.... I don't know the codes in NZ, but have some questions._*
Saw wood piles driven into ground and then cut off at a predetermined height. Are pilings a requirement on all construction, or only in certain soil conditions?
Looks like major building components are built off site then brought in for assembly. The framing wood was a reddish or pinkish color. What does that signify? After some time in the rain, it looked like color faded away.
Nice use of insulation under the slab. Great details for rebar, thicken edges, concrete beams, and expansion joints.
While it is hard to build a home in 10 minutes, it is possible to build one in under 1 month. Good project management and tight schedules can reduce time when no one is on site and no work is being done. I am Former Boeing Everett and we can built a 747 in a week. It has 6 million parts and very strict rules on assembly. I have seen houses built in 1 week. They are not inferior to same house built in 6 months... yeah try and explain that to client.
*_Looks like a great place to raise a family. Thanks for sharing._*
The Pink color indicates that the wood used in the element is a structural wood such as yellow pine. sometimes colored coating can indicate treatment for termites or mold resistance, subject to local code.
@@PWingert1966 Thanks for comment and information.
how many sqm is this house?
Pink timber from transform yellow timber. 😅
