Modular Advantage
What is modular construction?
Modular is a construction process where homes are built off-site, in a climate-controlled factory environment, and then transported and installed onsite. The term “modular” is often confused as a style of house when in fact it is simply a method of construction. It is the way the home is built, not the way it looks.
Almost every housing style today is built using at least some components of factory built efficiencies (“pre-fabricated”…meaning built in a factory and shipped to site).
Modular construction is a super efficient building process, enabling builders to eliminate weather delays, on-site vandalism, theft, and minimize waste. That all translates to cost and time savings. Look to modular construction if you want your project to be more environmentally friendly, delivered on time, on budget and without hassle.

Our Modular Advantage
Affordability
Modular homes are typically more affordable than traditional site-built homes.
Highly customisable
Modular homes can be built in a wide range of sizes and styles, making them suitable for a variety of locations and lifestyles.
Quality
built in a controlled factory environment, modular homes are subject to rigorous quality control inspections at every stage of construction. Further, they are built to withstand transport, making them a stronger home.
Environmentally Friendly
if climate change and sustainability is important to you, modular construction is the most environmentally friendly way to build.
Speed
If time is money, modular homes can be built in a fraction of the time it takes to build a traditional home. Site preparation can also take place at the same time, furthering the speed of the build.
Energy Efficiency
Factory built technologies result in precise installation of insulation, resulting in a home that is better insulated and more energy-efficient.

Fully customizable and stackable!
Think of your modular home or commercial development similar to how you would assemble Lego pieces to create a structure. When making a Lego house, you may choose to build the basement, the main floor, and the second storey all separately, but fuse them together at completion. That’s kind of what we do, but we get have fun with cranes and stuff!
Conceptually, modular homes and commercial developments are constructed similarly to that Lego village you built as a kid.
When it comes to creating your dream home or commercial development, let your creative juices flow, the sky is the limit!
The highly customizable nature of our home building process along with the flexible mind-set of Pleasant Homes’ smart problem-solvers allows us to offer complete barrier-free builds, full turn-key options and delivery to just about everywhere. We haven’t met a location that beat us yet, although some are certainly easier than others! Remote construction is reduced to site preparation when you choose modular, highly simplifying the build. We do the rest!
