What our customers have to say
High quality, customisable, transportable homes.
“Thank you so much. The experience was first class”
“From the first time I walked through Ezyline’s doors, I knew I had made the right decision. The huge learning curve was made very easy as each step was made with confidence. The knowledge and guidance of Paul and Rachel was really appreicated. “
“Great firm to work with, would recommend Ezyline to anyone”
“Gave us lot’s of ideas on interior. House was ready on time. Now we are in the house it is just great. Our lovely retirement home. Thanks heaps guys”
“They were extremely open to all our ideas, and nothing was a problem. That’s how we came to choose Ezyline Homes because they just made it easy. They listened to everything every step of the way, took it on board and made it happen.”
“Communication was simple, they were always there if I needed to talk to them or email them they were very responsive. If there was something they needed to find out they did that very quickly and got back to us. Right from the beginning we had complete trust in them because they were efficient and effective.
We were able to customsie the home, so it had Lifemark certification which recognises homes that are well-designed, safe and easy to live in, regardless of age, stage or ability.
Without a doubt, I’d recommend Ezyline. They build a high quality of home with a very good budget. They’re very good with their timing and it’s a fixed price so you know what you’re paying for. If you want to up-spec something you can, but right from the beginning you know what it’s going to cost.
After the house arrives, they’ll come out and visit and check that everything’s ok. If an issue occurs during delivery, they’ll fix it. Nothing’s a problem for them. Their homes are built to a high standard and the finish is awesome. I’m extremely happy.”
“As a first home buyer I felt so at ease, I could ask them dumb questions and they wouldn’t judge me.”
“We had a look at Ezyline’s transportable home designs online and loved them. However, we didn’t approach them until a whanau member told us how good their experience with Ezyline had been. I loved how approachable and easy-going the team was. As a first home buyer I felt so at ease, I could ask them dumb questions and they wouldn’t judge me. The best thing about working with Ezyline was the team without a doubt, Trevor is amazing.
I would recommend Ezyline Homes in a heartbeat. I have told a few people to look at Ezyline because of my experience with them and how beautiful the home is. They are an amazing team who reply promptly and are accurate with their predicted timeframes. If there are delays, they let you know, and their homes are finished beautifully.”
“Any variation to the original plans was easily catered for and the associated cost has been very reasonable.”
“We both are very happy with our Ezyline Home experience. Any variation to the original plans was easily catered for and the associated cost has been very reasonable.
We especially appreciated the small things like the tiling done to match the width of the Range Hood and the fact that a flaw was noticed in the carpet before it was laid. Best wishes to both you and Rachel for your professional and personal approach.”
“Ezyline Homes are simply the best value farm housing we have found”
“We have purchased 5 Ezyline homes now and will be ordering a sixth home shortly, that probably sums up how impressed we are with the quality, value and service we receive from Pam and Wallace. We have definitely noticed that they hold up to the rigours of being tenanted by farm staff better than other kitset housing we have on the farm.
Pam and Wallace have guided us through the process of putting each house on the farm and have accommodated any changes required as well as meeting what have sometimes been tight timeframes. We are very happy to continue with Ezyline Homes, they are simply the best value farm housing we have found.”
“A lovely warm, cosy home to live in, I am very happy.”
“It is a year since I paid a deposit on my 2 bedroom cottage (60m2). I have gardens, paths, patio etc all complete. A lovely warm, cosy home to live in, I am very happy. My son and daughter moved into the main house in October 2018, so we are all settled. Once again thank you for making my life happy and relaxed.”
“Just want to thank you ALL for such an amazing job on our new house.”
“We couldn’t be more thankful for the fantastic job you all have done and the totally smooth process from the beginning to end, we were not once disappointed. The quality is well above expectation. Thank you very much we really appreciate it. Enjoy your drinks!”
“Your service was kind and professional from start to finish”
“Our decision to choose Ezyline was purely due to the customer service that we received very early in the piece from Rachel and Paul. No other transportable home company that we engaged with offered this.
Your service was kind and professional from start to finish. It included awesome communication which left us with no unwanted surprises. Rachel’s interior design consultancy was incredibly helpful and Paul’s calm knowledgeable help with logistics and planning made us feel like nothing was a problem.”
“Great company to work with and the finished product is fantastic”
“We live in the South Island and found communication from the Fielding office fantastic. We were kept well informed throughout the entire process and were offered contacts for other third party contractors to help complete the job. Highly recommend.”
“I’m continually impressed with the service that Ezyline have provided even long after the house has landed on site”
“The design process was straightforward and they worked with me through every little change. Everything looks perfect with the finished product and I’m really happy with it all. My little home is so great and built so nicely, we couldn’t be happier.”
“My experience with Ezyline was perfect from the start”
“Nothing I wanted to do or change was too much trouble. It was built in a timely manner using high quality fittings. I got the home of my dreams and a great price. I changed a lot, I wanted what I wanted and they accommodated all my wishes.
I couldn’t be happier, now the grounds are being developed and my colours are becoming more accepted by the neighbourhood.”
“My family and I are loving our home. Our entire experience with Ezyline was impeccable”
“We were extremely happy with how the build turned out especially given it happened under the pressures of the pandemic. The quality of the house is excellent for the price we paid. We often get asked a lot of questions about our house and are always happy to recommend Ezyline. A big thank you to Paul and the Fielding team. ”
“Absolutely brilliant. We love our little house. 70m² but feels so much bigger”
“We are so happy we went with Ezyline Transportable Homes. Great quality and value. Pam and Wallace were so friendly and professional. We could call at anytime if we had queries or worries and they would help. We definitely recommend Ezyline. We really believe you will be so happy you went with this company. Thanks again.”
“If you are looking into transportable homes, Ezyline will be hard to beat”
“Excellent service and communication from Pam in the office. Everything is set out in the initial plan and costing. I’ve just popped in to have a look while passing through and couldn’t be happier at the plastering and painting stage.”
“We are very happy with the quality of the work and the quality of the kitchen, bathroom and laundry fittings”
“We purchased a three bedroom rental house from Ezyline Homes. They were friendly and easy to deal with – we changed the original floor plan to better suit our needs and chose the flooring and colours. The fully finished house was transported to our site without any problems.”
“Their attention to detail was great and nothing was too much trouble. We are very happy with the final outcome and can not recommend them highly enough”
“After exploring many options, Ezyline Homes Tauranga were recommended to us. We found the company and, in particular, their Sales and Marketing Manager was incredibly good to work with. They went above and beyond accommodating us and our requests including completing the house build in a very short time frame.”
“Their communication, professionalism and end product couldn’t be faulted even during the middle of a lockdown”
“We engaged Ezyline Homes in 2022 to help us deliver our first IP/rental. They were a pleasure to deal with, extremely helpful and being in the construction industry ourselves we feel as though the end product was completed to a very high standard. We wouldn’t hesitate dealing with Pam and the team again.”
“Very good communication”
“Kept us informed of progress and gave us options, the whole process was stress free.”
“We can highly recommend Ezyline for their service, build quality and customer care”
“We are really happy with the excellent service and quality of build provided by Ezyline. The support in designing the house was first rate, the build quality is of the highest level and the after delivery service has been outstanding. We are delighted with the house we have and are grateful for all of the great work done to achieve this.”
“The Ezyline team were incredibly accommodating”
“Their communication was great, and they really listened to what we needed. We had to make a change to the shower to better suit my brother as he gets older, and they handled it with no fuss.
The workmanship was top-notch, and the whole team was fantastic to deal with. I’d absolutely recommend Ezyline to anyone looking for a second home on their section—it’s a great option, and the process was smooth from start to finish.”
Why transportable?
The first question to answer is what actually is a transportable home? These homes are built in our manufacturing facilities, completed and then sent to your site via road transporter. You may hearthese homes referred to as prefabs/prebuilt.
Some of the main benefits of a transportable home, over tradional builds, include speed, less delays, better budgets, no surprises and flexibility.

Buying a transportable home is a big decision. Whether it’s for your main residence, a holiday retreat, worker accommodation, or a secondary dwelling, there are several moving parts to consider beyond just the floor plan.
If you’ve been researching what to look for when buying a transportable home, this is our checklist to help you make an informed choice.
Site Suitability & Access
Before falling in love with a layout, start by investigating whether your site is suitable for a transportable build. Rural and urban sites present different challenges. Narrow driveways, tight turning circles, overhead power lines, or limited access can all influence delivery.
An early site assessment gives your transportable home builder a chance to determine if there are any restrictions to the type of home that will work for your property.
Learn more about what’s involved in the transport and installation phase in our Transportable Homes Delivery Process.
Build Quality, Materials & NZ Compliance
Transportable homes have to comply with the New Zealand Building Code, just like any other residential build. That includes things like structural durability, insulation standards, moisture management, and seismic considerations.
Builds completed in a controlled environment have advantages because construction happens under predictable conditions, allowing for tighter tolerances and greater consistency when installing elements such as insulation and glazing.
When comparing your options, take into account the factors that make for a comfortable home - insulation, glazing, weather performance, and overall longevity of the materials being used.

Design Flexibility & Lifestyle Fit
Whether you’re looking for a primary residence, a holiday retreat, or accommodation for workers, considering the right layout based on how you’ll use the home will make the biggest difference to how the property is enjoyed.
Purpose of the home
The intended use of your home significantly influences the features and layout you should prioritise. Here are a few common purposes:
- Additional accommodation for extended family: If the home will serve as extra space for family members, consider their comfort and privacy. Features like multiple bedrooms, a separate bathroom, and a cosy living area can make the space more inviting.
- Holiday home: For a holiday property, prioritise low-maintenance features, easy access to outdoor areas, and amenities that enhance relaxation, such as a deck and outdoor living spaces.
- Worker accommodation: Practicality and durability are key for worker housing. Ensure the home is equipped with sufficient amenities, durable materials, and adequate space for comfortable living.
- Granny flat: Usability and preparing for the future are key considerations. If the person using the home is advanced in years, we can prepare the home by making doors flush entry, putting timber in the walls for future grab rails and making doorways wider for future wheelchair access.
The size of the Home
The number of bedrooms is a fundamental consideration when selecting a transportable home. Think about your current and future needs. If you have a growing family or anticipate hosting guests, opting for additional bedrooms can provide comfort and flexibility.
Bathrooms are another important factor, particularly in homes with multiple occupants. A second bathroom can be a game-changer, reducing morning rush hour stress and providing privacy.
The flow of the home
Customising the orientation of your floorplan to suit your needs goes a long way in helping to make your transportable home tick all the boxes when a standard floor plan doesn’t quite fit the bill.
Whether you’re looking to prioritise open plan living, need plenty of accommodation for all the extended family, or storage is top on your list, considering a floor plan which is tailored to include all the amenities you need is an important consideration to ensure your transportable home fits your lifestyle for years to come.

The Build & Delivery Process
One of the biggest differences between a traditional build and a transportable home is where the work happens.
Instead of months of on-site activity, your home is constructed in a controlled environment before being transported and installed on prepared foundations. Timelines can vary depending on a few different factors, but these builds allow more certainty in scheduling and are less likely to run over.
While many transportable, modular, prefab, and kitset homes come in a range of sizes and orientations, often a more customised approach is necessary to achieve the perfect layout for your needs.

Number of bedrooms
The number of bedrooms is a fundamental consideration when selecting a transportable home. Think about your current and future needs. If you have a growing family or anticipate hosting guests, opting for additional bedrooms can provide comfort and flexibility. Even if the home is intended as a holiday retreat or worker accommodation, having extra rooms can enhance privacy and convenience.
Number of bathrooms
Bathrooms are another important factor, particularly in homes with multiple occupants. A second bathroom can be a game-changer, reducing morning rush hour stress and providing privacy. Consider the number of people who will use the home regularly and whether additional bathrooms are necessary to meet their needs.
Separate laundry area
A dedicated laundry area is a practical feature that many overlook. A separate laundry room can help keep the rest of the home organised and clutter-free. Whether you're washing beach towels from a day at the holiday home or uniforms in a worker accommodation setting, a designated laundry space adds convenience and functionality.
Customisable layouts
The ability to pick your preferred finishes including paint colours, floor coverings, joinery, and appliances is an easy way to help make your transportable home feel like your own. Customising the orientation of your floorplan to suit your needs goes a long way in helping to make your transportable home tick all the boxes when a standard floor plan doesn’t quite fit the bill.
Whether you’re looking to prioritise open plan living, need plenty of accommodation for all the extended family, or storage is top on your list, considering a floor plan which is tailored to include all the amenities you need is an important consideration to ensure your transportable home fits your lifestyle for years to come.
Living area size
The living area is the heart of any home, where family and friends gather to relax and socialise. The size of the living area should align with your lifestyle and how you plan to use the space. For those who love entertaining, a larger living area may be ideal. Conversely, if the home is a secondary residence or for temporary use, a more compact living space might suffice with the extra floor plan used for additional bedrooms or storage.
Kitchen and dining area
The kitchen and dining area are crucial spaces for daily living. Consider the size and layout of the kitchen, especially if you enjoy cooking. A well-designed kitchen with ample counter space, storage, and modern appliances can make meal preparation a pleasure. The dining area should comfortably accommodate the number of people you expect to dine regularly.
Storage space
Lack of storage is often a pain point in any home. Evaluate the available storage options, including closets, cabinets, and potential external storage like sheds or garages. Ample storage helps keep the home organised and clutter-free, contributing to a more pleasant living environment.
