Frequently Asked
Questions
Are transport and foundations included in the classroom price?
The costs for transport and foundations are site-specific and, therefore not included in the classroom price. These costs are determined during the quoting stage and upon investigation of the Geotech report. For initial enquiries, we can provide indicative costs for transport and foundations.
How long does it take to build a classroom?
Once the consent has been issued, our construction time is generally 8 weeks.
Do you organise the building consents?
Our classrooms come with a building Code of Compliance for the classroom itself, however an onsite consent is required from the local council in the region the classroom is being moved to. This is necessary to demonstrate compliance in different regions throughout the North island. We can organise the on-site consent where required and have a dedicated person who specialises in onsite consent applications.
Do I need to make an appointment?
If you have a site already and you’re ready to explore the possibility of a transportable classroom, your next step is to make an appointment with a knowledgeable representative from Builtsmart to help guide you through the process. As our factory is a construction site, all visitors must follow our Health & Safety policies and procedures. i.e. wear appropriate footwear and clothing. Children under the age of 16 years are not permitted in our factory.
What sort of guarantees do you offer?
BUILTsmart provides product guarantees for all materials and items used in the construction of the classroom. In accordance with the Building Act, we provide a 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Purchasing a completed stock classroom?
When purchasing a completed BUILTsmart transportable classroom from any one of our factories, we will require a one-off payment in full; prior to the classroom leaving the yard. Terms and conditions apply.
