Don’t Pester Me
Choosing between timber or steel frames sometimes comes down to considering the pests where you will be building. Termite damage in Australian homes costs home owners millions of dollars every year in repairs. A steel framed and trussed kit home provides extra protection against termites. There’s not a termite in the world that can eat its way through steel! If you live in an area with termites, steel is the best choice for your home construction.
