Cottages are delivered by truck and placed by Hiab where access allows. We check driveway width, overhead lines, trees, slope and turning space before confirming delivery.
Most cottages sit on screw piles or a concrete pad. The right option depends on soil, slope, drainage and local requirements. We can recommend foundation contractors in many areas.
Yes, within practical limits. Exterior colours, interior finishes and some layout details can be discussed during quote stage.
Timing depends on the model, production schedule and site readiness. A typical project is planned in stages: quote, paperwork, workshop build, site preparation, delivery and handover.
The cottage includes internal plumbing and electrical fitout. A local plumber and electrician connect the cottage to your site services after delivery.
Cottage Life is based in Matangi, Hamilton and can quote delivery across New Zealand. Delivery cost depends on distance, route and access.
If you are unsure whether your property is suitable, the easiest first step is a quick enquiry with your location and the model you like.
