Premium Wendy Houses—Designed for South African Conditions
Wendy houses in South Africa have evolved from simple garden sheds to versatile living and working spaces. We engineer our structures for durability, thermal comfort and longevity using pressure-treated timber, Nutec fiber-cement cladding and moisture barriers. A properly specified foundation, correct roof pitch and quality fasteners are non-negotiable—these basics prevent sagging, leaks and premature rot.
Every project starts with a site assessment. We verify access, slope, drainage and prevailing winds, then recommend the right footprint and height. In Pretoria North and Centurion where clay soils are common, we favour raised, braced subfloors on treated poles or concrete plinths to keep the structure dry. In Johannesburg’s windy corridors (Midrand to Fourways) we add additional anchoring and cross-bracing to meet gust loads.
Insulation matters. We offer layered solutions—radiant barriers under metal sheeting, high-density insulation in walls and ceilings, and proper vapour control to reduce condensation. This makes a real difference in winter mornings in Irene or Menlyn and during summer heat spells in Mpumalanga’s Lowveld.
Doors and windows are fitted with weather seals, drip edges and corrosion-resistant hinges. Where security is essential, we can add burglar bars, steel doors or composite doors without compromising the timber structure. All exterior timber receives high-solid UV sealants in natural tones or charcoal to match modern aesthetics.
We price transparently. You’ll receive a detailed bill of materials, labour and options such as verandas, internal partitions, plumbing and electrical preps. If you are comparing quotes, insist on written specs including timber treatment class, cladding thickness, underlay type, roof gauge and warranty terms—like for like.
Compliance is built in. For larger footprints or habitable use, we align with SANS guidelines and municipal requirements. We can liaise with your appointed draughtsman/engineer if plans are needed. For smaller tool sheds and garden offices, we keep the design simple while still meeting safety best practices.
Maintenance is straightforward: wash down cladding annually, reseal exterior wood every 18–24 months depending on UV exposure, and keep vegetation trimmed back. Our aftercare guide explains how to check roof screws, touch up sealant lines and keep door frames true as seasons change.
If you’re exploring Nutec houses, we also build modern, low-maintenance homes using fiber-cement boards on timber or light steel frames. See our sister site for deeper Nutec pricing and layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you service Centurion and Midrand?
Yes, our teams are active daily across Pretoria North, Centurion, Irene, Midrand and Sandton through to Randburg and Fourways.
Which is better: timber cladding or Nutec?
Nutec is lower maintenance and resists moisture and pests; timber gives a classic look. We build both and can mix systems.
Can you insulate and run electricity?
We install insulation and ceiling boards and prep conduits/points for your qualified electrician to connect.
How long does installation take?
Small sheds take a few hours; larger cabins 1–3 days, depending on weather and site access.

In-Depth Guide to Wendy Houses in Pretoria & Johannesburg
Everything you need to know about planning, pricing, permits and materials—written for South African homeowners comparing quotes and aiming for long-term value.
Overview
Our wendy houses are engineered for South African climates—dry Highveld winters and stormy summers—so homeowners in Pretoria, Centurion, Johannesburg, Middelburg, Witbank, Nelspruit, Midrand, Sandton get structures that stay straight, dry and comfortable for years. We specify moisture barriers, corrosion-resistant fasteners and vented roof assemblies as standard.
Frames & Foundations
We use pressure-treated timber framing with braced floor systems, squared and levelled off plinths or poles. On clay soils common in Pretoria North and Centurion we elevate subfloors to promote ventilation and keep water away from structural members. Where clients already have a concrete slab, we anchor with shielded chemical anchors and isolating membranes to stop rising damp.
- Braced floor joists at engineered spacing
- Anti-termite, pressure-treated timber
- Ventilated subfloor where soil is reactive
- Anchoring for wind uplift
Cladding Options
Choose between select timber cladding for classic appeal or Nutec fibre-cement boards for low-maintenance durability. Nutec resists moisture, pests and fire spread better than raw timber, and takes paint beautifully for modern charcoal or light earthy palettes.
- Timber: warm aesthetic, periodic reseal
- Nutec: low maintenance, excellent weathering
- Hybrid: timber accents on Nutec body
Roofing & Waterproofing
We fit steel roof sheeting with correct gauge and anti-condensation options. Ridge flashings, drip edges and breathable underlays work together to throw water out and allow vapour to escape—critical for preventing mould.
Thermal & Acoustic Performance
We combine reflective barriers and bulk insulation in ceilings and walls. In practice this trims temperature swings by several degrees and calms roof noise in hail or heavy rain, which matters in Midrand–Fourways wind corridors and the summer storms around MBombela.
- Radiant barrier under roof sheeting
- Bulk insulation in ceilings/walls
- Vapour control to prevent condensation
Windows, Doors & Security
Aluminium windows are a favourite for clean lines and weather sealing. Where security is a priority we spec laminated glass, internal beading and multi-point locks. For doors we offer solid timber, composite or steel security doors depending on the application.
Electrical & Plumbing Readiness
Our team pre-installs conduits, back boxes and plumbing stubs so your qualified trades can connect fast after handover. This reduces rework, keeps finishes neat and ensures compliance.
Design & Layout
From compact 2.4×2.4 tool sheds to 6×12 two-bedroom cabins with verandas, we draw layouts that maximise usable space, daylight and cross ventilation. Corner windows, higher ceilings and covered decks radically improve comfort.
Finish & Aftercare
Exterior timber gets high-solid UV sealants; Nutec gets quality exterior paint. We hand you a maintenance checklist—wash down cladding annually, top up sealant every 18–24 months, tighten exposed fasteners after the first season and re-level steps if soil settles.
Buying Guide
Compare apples with apples: ask each supplier to specify timber treatment class, cladding thickness, roof gauge, underlay type, window material and warranty. An itemised BOM prevents shortcuts and protects your investment.
- Written bill of materials with quantities
- Clear warranty terms (structure, cladding, roof)
- Installation timeline and crew size
