Key Features

Roof Covering

Featuring a one-piece roof covering made from fibre reinforced plastic offering a seamless finish, preventing roof leaks. It's sleek design enhances durability, ensures weather resistance, and offers a modern, low-maintenance solution built to last.

Non-migratory Cable

The building comes pre-wired and uses non-migratory sheathing ensuring reliable performance and longevity. The purple sheathing prevents the chemical reaction that would typically cause a standard white cable to deteriorate when in contact with various types of insulated panels. All our electrical parts are registered with the Electrical Equipment Safety Scheme (EESS).

Roof Eaves

The roof eaves of the building feature a 175mm overhang, providing additional protection against rain. It also offers improved insulation by allowing rainwater to run off more efficiently, preventing moisture build-up around the structure. Guttering can be installed.

Bathroom

A fully equipped bathroom designed for convenience and style, featuring a toilet, shower, mirror, cabinetry, and a sleek vanity.

Pre-plumbed

The bathroom is pre-plumbed; however, additional plumbing might be necessary depending on the building. The building must be elevated at least 500mm off the ground.

Pitched Roof

The Superior range features a 20-degree pitched roof that improves water drainage, prevents leaks, and adds a modern look to your home. The pitched roof options allows for a 2.4m internal ceiling. The gable roof comes flat-packed inside the building and must be assembled and installed by the customer or a qualified tradesperson.
