Josh spent less than 10k and the result is a million dollars!
In May 2023, Josh from Oakdowns, Tasmania, purchased a Smartkits insulated attached flat patio roof kit for $8,200. Inspired by the affordability and quality of Australian-made materials, Josh turned his first large-scale DIY project into a resounding success. His efforts earned him a place in our 2024 "I Built It Smarter" competition, where his craftsmanship and creative vision stood out.
Josh praised Smartkits for their competitive pricing and exceptional support, stating, "Dealing with Smartkits from start to end was a really great experience. When comparing their pricing to other competitors, Smartkits was by far the most affordable and for a more superior Australian-made product."
A key feature of Josh's project was the flexibility in design, allowing him to utilize existing 180mm round posts and connect the receiver channel to 100mm thick polystyrene blocks. With guidance from Mick, who provided expert solutions for connecting to the trusses and ongoing support throughout the process, Josh successfully completed a professional-grade build that exceeded expectations.
The finished patio roof now offers Josh and his family a versatile outdoor space, providing shade and cool relief in summer and a sheltered area during winter. This new undercover living area has significantly enhanced their lifestyle, delivering comfort and practicality year-round.
