#SIP PANEL HOME KITS HOW TO#
Often the consumer will say, when hiring the contractor, “This is the house kit I am building, are you the person to do it? If so, I’d like to you speak with the house kit company and they can answer your questions.” We are very much of a team, and it is in all our best interests to make your home successful! My own contractor had never worked with a house kit, had never built with SIPs, and now takes his colleagues and visiting family to our house to show it to them… : ) It was my contractor’s expertise that determined how to address site conditions, how to accurately orient the house kit, how to work out our individual family’s systems needs… which has nothing to do with the house kit itself, yet is critical to a successful home project. Either could happen – but a warning: often contractors will try to sway you away from something they have not worked with before (for a less efficient stick-built house, for example), in that case we / the factory are happy to answer all their questions.

We had an excellent experience with JML SIPs and would certainly use them again if we were to build another house.Here are some Frequently Asked Questions. When we contacted the office manager and the reception staff they were friendly and very helpful. The manager and designer were attentive to our request for change and were creative in managing any problems that arose. They were clearly skilled craftsmen and were confident and efficient in their work. During the build the workmen were well mannered and hard working. It is not too much to say that we enjoyed the journey. We were supported through the whole building process, were consulted in respect of planning and authorisation and we felt that we were listened to all through the experience. We were highly impressed with the design consultant who listened to our requests, came back with drawings and ideas and with us decided on the house that woud meet all our needs. JML SIPs provided a first class service in building our four-bedroom house in Moray. I would not hesitate to recommend them or use them again". The work was also all done to the correct timescale, which is rare in this industry. They are not the cheapest, but you do get very high quality at a reasonable price, and the project we did represented great value, compared to other quotes we had from more traditional methods of building. I can't recommend this company enough, and I would suggest you contact them from the start, and use their Architects etc. The main part of the build is now finished, although we still have a lot to do internally and outside. The guys on site were very good, and I can't fault the service in any way. Once involved, the project went very smoothly and I wish we had involved them right from the start. They also did the roofing and a front porch, together with the cladding. JML built and erected the SIPs frame of a large extension to the rear of our property. "JML had their own in-house Architect and this got the project moving and on budget.
