Drawings

Drawings that can be developed further

Exterior cladding

Houses are available with many different exterior cladding options.

02

Roof types

Drawings & permits

Drawings and technical documents need to be correctly prepared for the permit process.

Quality

Quality, materials and environmental responsibility

To support production quality, components are sourced from recognized manufacturers. According to the current SG Hús material, structural timber is sourced from sustainable forests in Sweden, and the company uses Ajour for quality management. The current website states that all products used in production are CE marked.

Production

Roof trusses for different roof types

Process

Where do you start?

Good preparation saves time later. The process often starts with the plot, planning conditions and the basic needs of the family or organization.

  1. Review the plot and planning conditions

    Check utilization ratios, building area, heights, access and boundary distances.

  2. Choose the overall direction

    Decide whether you're looking for a residential, summer, or multi-purpose building.

  3. Review drawings and possible changes

    Choose candidate house types and discuss changes based on plot and needs.

  4. Request advice and a quote

    Submit an enquiry with the key information and relevant documents.

  5. Prepare documentation for permits

    Designers and specialists work with the documents for the permit authority.

  6. Production and assembly

    Wall units are produced and on-site assembly is prepared.
