The Welhaus Group builds homes and neighbourhoods. We seek to create beautiful, successful places. These places range in size from a few homes in urban centres to complex, mixed-use city regeneration schemes underpinned by our focus on individuality, safety, sustainability and quality.
We work with clients in a number of ways: we can supply design for your building and the ‘flat-packed’ panel kit for your building team to assemble; adapt and existing design or work in with your architect to produce a bespoke design, just for you.
Six advantages of prefabricating with Welhaus:
1. Greater accuracy thanks to computer controlled production and craft person supervision.
2. Construction is unaffected by the weather and so it’s easier to keep within project deadline.
3. Construction time on-site is minimised so within 3 days your house can be weatherproof and secure.
4. Prefabrication is more energy-efficient and produces less waste so it is a more ecofriendly way of building.
5. Faster on-site construction means less disruption for you and your neighbours.
6. Greater ability to control quality, timing and therefore cost.
At the heart of our innovative culture lies the creation of an offsite manufacturing business based on exportability of the Welbuild Construction System (WCS) which is in itself unique given that most construction companies are geared to provide onsite domestic construction. It is the extent and breadth to which Welhaus have pre-engineered, used New Zealand-sourced and renewable building materials, adopted BIM technology, created Panel Products and generally industrialised to improve our craft which makes us unique.
