We are going with Hebel.
It will cost us $2500. We are building an acreage single level house.
We chose at the very beginning as we wanted a Hebel house. It has great fire retardant properties. We live in a bush fire area. It also has good energy efficiency properties that I'm looking to incorporate into my house (along with other things). Plus it looks very good.
You get to chose 3 colours on your exterior for Hebel.
Hebel requires a special type of sealing and render from normal rendering to protect it.
While labour costs are lower with Hebel as it is very quick to build with, it is a more expensive material than standard brick.
Hope this information helps.
We just had our colours appointment, and getting really excited about what our house will look like!!
So does that mean you can have 3 different colours on your facde, or you only have a choice of 3 colours in their colour selection
