iBuild Contributes To National Sustainability Initiatives

22/09/2017 by Chloe Chiang

iBuild Building Solutions was invited to take part in the annual sustainability initiatives, 2017 Sustainable House Day, which ran on the 17th of September.

The nationwide event allowed visitors a chance to see homes that have been built or renovated with sustainability features. iBuild hosted two group tours by interested community members, in close collaboration with City of Monash and Eastern Innovation Business Centre.

iBuild co-founder, Jackson Yin, said the event was a great opportunity for the company to educate the community on how to build a sustainable home at a lower cost.

“As a company, iBuild believes in the importance of environmentally-friendly and sustainable homes,” Mr Yin said.

iBuild Environmental Engineering Intern, Hillary Wu, said that she was proud to be a part of a company that embraces sustainability.

“I look forward to helping iBuild to incorporate more sustainability elements into future iBuild designs, and educate the community about sustainability in their own homes,” Ms Wu said.

Visitors were also invited to inspect the display home, located outside of iBuild’s head office in Mulgrave. The display home has many sustainable features including:

A NatHERS 7-Star Energy Rating
Recyclable & reusable packaging & structural materials
Environmentally-friendly termite resistant timber
100% natural Australian-made timber cladding with a zero-carbon footprint

Mr Yin also said that the company is adding solar panels on the roof of the display home as a means of generating energy.

Kit Homes Dereel

06/09/2017 by Chloe Chiang

If you are looking for kit homes Dereel, you’d love to hear about Harold’s journey to build his dream home.

Harold, who lives in Dereel, Victoria, approximately 2 hours west of Melbourne, was told that he was no longer able to live in his caravan on his own block of land. As a result, he now faced the often-daunting task of building a house.

After conducting some research, Harold came across iBuild’s kit homes. He then attended one of iBuild’s Open for Inspection events, and took a tour of iBuild’s display home. Harold was instantly impressed with the quality and design of the home. At the end of the event, Harold approached one of our friendly team members, Sam, and subsequently began plans for his new home.

Harold decided to purchase the 3-bedroom kit home Banksia and was taken aback by its design. However, due to budget restrictions, he had to make some modifications to the design. Sam and the team at iBuild were able to tailor the kit home Banksia to suit his specific needs and supply the product within his budget.

Once all the appropriate planning permits were obtained, Harold received his shipment and started to build his dream home. He was surprised at how quickly and efficiently his home was constructed. After completion, Harold boasted to his friends about his new home, and how happy he is with it.

At iBuild, we love seeing our customer’s dreams come to life by supplying them with innovative and beautiful homes. Whether you are looking at the kit home Banksia or something similar, the team at iBuild Building Solutions are always happy to assist with your enquiries.

Modular Homes Bega

31/08/2017 by Chloe Chiang

Interested in modular homes Bega? Read this story about iBuild customers Dean and Dinah.

Dean, and his wife, Dinah wanted to build a yoga retreat, with an adjacent bed and breakfast and residential dwelling. After doing research and visiting iBuild’s modular display home, the couple thought the Transpack Modular Home was perfect for their project.

The retreat was going to be built on an undeveloped site in Numbugga, a town just outside of Bega, New South Wales. Located deep in a forest with no marked roads, no electricity, no running water, and no sewerage, the project proved to be a big challenge.

The client had also planned to hold aerial yoga classes in the retreat, which consisted of practicing yoga whilst being suspended from a hammock from the ceiling. This meant that the ceiling height needed to be elevated to allow enough space for the hammocks. Dean also wanted to install solar panels to generate electricity to the site, which meant that angled footings needed to be added onto the roof to support the solar panels.

As there were no sewerage outlets, the client also proposed to use septic water tanks and composting toilets. This meant that the floor needed to be raised up to allow access to the collection tanks underneath. As the building was to be erected on sloping ground, additional supporting piers needed to be added underneath the house to ensure the floor was level.

The couple also received a letter from the Bega Valley Council stating that the site was on “bushfire prone land”. As a result, changes needed to be made to the building materials of the homes to ensure it was fire safe.

To combat these issues, Dean and Dinah consulted with iBuild Team Member, Adam, and together, they drew up a new plan to accommodate these changes.

Further progress on this project will be updated on our blog.
