Answer:
Yes — all Expandify homes are engineered to be 100% termite-resistant through the use of non-organic structural materials.
Key termite protection features include:
- Galvanised steel frame – Termites cannot penetrate or damage steel framing
- No timber framing – Unlike conventional builds, there’s no structural wood used
- Sealed flooring system – Subfloor includes metal undersiding and cement fibreboard
- Factory-treated fixtures – Kitchen, bathroom, and cabinetry materials are moisture-resistant and insect-resistant
This construction approach ensures your Expandify home remains protected in termite-prone regions, especially in Queensland and coastal areas.
