I have to say that building the house is easier than I expected, and the steel frame has been easy to put up and work with.

There are some people who also hire licenced builders to complete the whole job for them. Hope that helps to clear it up. Cheers Hayden Kerr Ozkit Homes Hi Tim,

For measuring long measurements in your set out and when putting up your frame use a good quality steel measuring tape not a fibreglass one. Since buying a thirty metre steel tape I have found my measurements much more accurate and easier. The fibreglass tape measure I had been using to do measurements had some stretch in it and I found did nto give consistent measurements.
