Timber frame houses are particularly suited to New Zealand, because of seismic activity. Wooden floors used to be common as well, but have now been displaced by cheaper, but less attractive, materials. A quality home may have wooden floors today however.
Roofing material is almost galvanized steel in one form or another, though quite a few houses have concrete or clay tiles. Slate roofs are rather uncommon other than in older houses.
External wall coverings could still be in weatherboards but once again, cheaper flat sheet materials are finding favour because of economies of handling.
