How We Build Your Tiny House
Each Highlands Tiny Home is built with care, precision, and strength to last. From the very beginning, your tiny house is constructed on a heavy-duty steel trailer designed for Australian conditions. Our licensed team handles every aspect of the build, from structural framing to weatherproofing. It meets national standards and is backed by a 7-year structural warranty. You can feel confident knowing your home is solid, safe, and designed to move if needed.
Once the structure is set, we turn our attention to interiors. You’ll enjoy features like water-resistant wood-look flooring, LED lighting, full kitchens with gas or electric cooking, and fully-plumbed bathrooms with flushing toilets. All homes come solar-ready, with optional extras like skylights, air conditioning, French doors, and extra cabinetry. The result is a space that’s both beautiful and highly functional.

How do I connect to electricity?
Our Highlands tiny homes run on a 15amp mains power with a safety switchboard.
The tiny house can be plugged in using an electrical power lead, just like a traditional caravan.
You wont need an electrician on site for this connection, but you will need an extension lead.
A solar system can also be installed at an additional cost or this can be added at a later stage.
All our tiny houses come "solar r'eady" as standard.
How do I connect to gas? What gas type?
All our Tiny homes have a dual gas regulator that takes 2x LPG gas bottles as standard.
You can use your standard 9L barbecue gas bottles.
The connection is the same as connecting the gas bottle to a barbecue.
How do I connect to water?
Just like a conventional caravan, our tiny houses come with a standard garden hose plug connection.
Alternatively, we can offer Rainwater storage tanks and pumps at an additional cost allowing you to go off-grid.
All of our tiny homes designs come with gutters installed giving them the aesthetic of a traditional home feel.

Does a composting toilet smell & how often will I need to change the composting toilet chamber?
The short answer is NO as long as you maintain your composting toilet as per the manufacturer's instructions, no odour should be present.
The composting toilet chamber we install in our Tiny Homes are (Clivus Multrum CM LP - Standard Package) should be swapped over approximately every 4-6mths for 2 adults living fulltime in the space according to the manufacturer's instructions.
We can supply other composting toilet options that may suit your needs better, if required we can discuss this during the quotation process of your enquiry.
How do I get my tiny home onsite, do you offer delivery?
We have a reliable towing company that can deliver your tiny home to the site.
Delivery is an additional cost, an estimated delivery cost can be arranged at time of quotation or throughout the build process.
This service fully insures your tiny home from the time it leaves our premises and arrives at its final location.
Why do your tiny homes have wheels?
Two reasons why our tiny homes are built on trailers are, one because when built on tiny home trailers they don't require a building permit as it is classified as a vehicle, therefore it falls under the same regulation as caravans.
And by building tiny homes on trailers allows the possibility to relocate the home in the future if needed.
Can you build a tiny home that isn't on wheels?
Yes, we can build tiny homes on a variety of foundations since we are qualified builders, although varying certification parameters, building approvals and council permits may apply.
We will make every effort to accomodate wherever possible to ensure we can build you a tiny home design that fits your needs.
Please call us if you have further questions relating to Custom tiny home builds.
Do I need council approval for my tiny home?
Each local council has varying rules and regulations.
In most cases a tiny house is treated as a caravan due to its ability to relocate if need be.
Although we recommend contacting your local council to check what if any specific regulations are required.
