What are Nutec Wendy Houses?

What is Nutec?

Nutec is a brand of fibre cement board made by Everite- a South African company. The name Nutec has become the generic name for any fibre cement board, however, there is a genuine product, which is high quality. And there are other brands of fibre cement board to suit your budget.

Nutec is made by mixing Portland cement with man made fibers which is then formed into boards under pressure. The resulting boards come in a variety of thicknesses and sizes such as large sheets, and long narrow planks made to look like timber.

Fiber cement boards are incredibly durable and hard wearing though not structurally strong, making them the ideal material to clad the outside of a wendy house in Cape Town with.

Why use Nutec?

Nutec fiber cement boards have become the go-to material for cladding the outside of quality Wendy houses. It is a little more pricey than a wooden wendy house however the benefits are worth the investment.

Fiber cement boards are:

  • hard wearing
  • rot proof (basically waterproof)
  • resistant to pests
  • super easy to maintain
  • easy to paint with any masonary paint
  • uv resistant

These factors make it a perfect material to cope with Cape Town's harsh environment of strong sun, high winds, marine atmosphere, and stormy winters.

If you are looking to invest in a long lasting Wendy house then fiber cement is the way to go. And genuine Nutec by Everite comes with a manufacturers guarantee.

A solid structure

Foundations

Any building is only as good as the foundations. With Nutec Wendy houses there are three main options-

Pallet floor: This is the traditional Wendy house floor- a wooden construction of layers of plywood boards and solid timber beams create a solid, rigid platform to build the rest of the structure onto. The resulting structure is either supported on brick columns or even a solid block wall and is considered non-permantent.

Concrete slab: A thick layer of concrete is poured on the prepared ground to create a solid, permanent foundation for the rest of the structure to be built onto. This is by far the most solid, stable, and rigid type of foundation. The resulting building is considered to be a permanent structure.

Wooden piles: Not as common as the other two but sometimes necessary in certain terrains and environments. Thick, treated, solid timber poles are driven deep into the ground to create a platform for the rest of the structure to be built onto. Especially useful on steep slopes, on ground prone to flooding, or to create space under the building for parking and storage.

Timber Frames

We don't actually build 'Nutec Wendy houses'. We build timber framed houses. The Nutec is only the cladding that makes the structure weather tight and provides little to no structural strength or rigidity. That work is done by the timber frame that is built onto the foundations.

Timber frames are sometimes made using locally sourced, sustainable hard woods such as seligna, but the majority are made using locally grown treated pine. Either option will provide years of faithful service, however pine is considerably lower in cost. Both options are treated to meet SABS requirements.

Frames are constructed to comply with very strict SABS and local building requirements. Shortcuts cannot be taken or the resulting building will be weak and not very rigid, making it prone to warp and flex.

We ensure all our timber frames are fit for purpose resulting in solid, long lasting Nutec Wendy houses.

Roof Options

Nutec Wendy houses have two types of roof, pitched and flat.

A Flat Roof is not really flat, it slopes from one end of the Nutec Wendy house to the other, so it has a much reduced pitch but isn't completely flat. Rain water still runs off the roof, but only in once direction. This type of roof makes for a simpler roof frame and easier waste water management (only needing a gutter and down pipe on one side of the structure) which makes for a reduction in cost. However, run off is not as good, and all the run off is concentrated in one location. Plus, a flat roof on a Nutec Wendy house doesn't always look as attractive as a pitched roof. However, a flat roof is typically a lower profile than a pitched roof making it suitable in situations where building height really matter.

A Pitched Roof is a traditional roof structure often referred to as an 'A frame' because the required roof frames look like a capital A. The roof slopes up from both sides of the structure and meet in the middle. This is a superior performing roof in most circumstances, and it makes a Nutec Wendy house look like a 'proper' house. However, the more complex roof frames, double guttering, and the need to create a weather-tight apex. Whilst a pitched roof does make for better looking Nutec Wendy houses with better rain handling characteristics it does create a slightly higher structure.

All Nutec Wendy house roofs are typically made using galvanized corregated steel sheets, although plastic can be used if required.
