Can I go off-grid with my Tiny Home?
Yes, you can go as off-grid as you like! Before going off-grid, you'll need to consider how to handle power, water, sewage and grey water. We offer and install some of the best solutions including solar and battery power, composting toilets, sewage collection systems, and rainwater tanks. Why not get in touch, and tell us more about what you are planning.
Build
How much can I customise?
Can I customise the building materials?
At Luxe Tiny Homes we've chosen to use only the best quality materials. As an example, while many other builders use standard wrap, we use Bradford Enviroseal Wrap that allows for the controlled escape of vapour from within the building whilst restricting the ingress of liquid moisture. It helps to protect the building fabric and insulation from condensation and related problems such as mould, timber rot, corrosion and loss of thermal resistance.
What is the maximum size house I can have?
Do you offer solar solutions?
Yes. We offer optional off-the-grid solar solutions. Check out our Build your Home page or contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
How long does it take to build? Is there a waiting list?
Build times vary and are dependent on the model and finishing stage you select. We try and build ahead so there are few models available for instant driveaway. Typical build times range between 6-10 weeks. Please call us to discuss if we currently have a waiting list.
Can I order a partially built / lockup stage Tiny House?
Yes, we can build your Tiny Home from lockup stage and right through to turn-key completion. Check out our Build Your Home page where you can add and remove components and receive a quote.
Legal
Are Luxe Tiny Homes compliant and road legal?
In short, yes. We provide you with all of the electrical, gas and plumbing compliance certificates. Each tiny house comes with a fully compliant Victorian pre-registered, electrically braked trailer and VIN number.
Where can I put my Tiny Home? Is council approval required?
Our mobile tiny houses can be towed and generally do not require DA approval from councils, however, some councils can limit the amount of time someone can stay in one. Each council is different, so we recommend contacting your local council for further information so as to compile with current regulations.
Delivery, Installation and Setup
Can my new Tiny Home be delivered?
Yes, we deliver Australia wide. Delivery is an additional cost so please get in touch with us for more information. You are also welcome to arrange your own delivery and we'll work together with your freight company of choice.
Can Luxe Tiny Homes install my tiny house for me?
Yes! We'd be more than happy to set you up, so that you're up a running. Our installation service includes leveling, tie-downs and block placement where necessary. We can also arrange electrical and plumbing connections for you.
How do I connect the electricity, plumbing, water or gas?
Here's some information to help you. If you're still unsure - get in touch and we can arrange connections for you with our installation service.
How long does the sewage and grey water tank last?
Our onboard optional sewage and grey water tank holds 600L+ of each. That's approx. 40 days of toilet use for a single person, but of course this will vary depending on the number of uses. The kitchen sink and toilet run into the black water tank, while the shower, vanity and washing machine run into the grey water tank which can be used in your garden or emptied as needed.
