Why modular building is a great option for your new home!

When it comes to building a new home there are many options available to you, from traditional, to kit to modular - each with their own benefits. However many people aren’t always aware of what building a modular home involves and don’t realise that it could be the perfect option for a new home. Whether it be for a large family home to help you achieve your ambition of making a move to the country, or a luxurious costal holiday home that’s easy to maintain, or even if you are downsizing and looking to move closer to friends and family – Swanbuild has a modular home design to suit you. We take a look at why building a modular home with us could be the perfect solution for your site and lifestyle change…

Homes to suit every style…
We have a wide and varied range of designs to suit any location and preference. Our Acre and Country Explorer Series are designed for country living and open sites – perfect for making that move to the country with the family and making the most of all the space the countryside has to offer. Our Contemporary and Executive Living series of designs offer modern styles and luxurious designs, with a range of sizes to suit both family living or those looking for a smaller home, while the Estate Living Series allow you to enjoy the lifestyle of living in beautiful surroundings in well thought out and manageable home designs.

As well as our wide range of modular home designs – each one is fully customisable, allowing you to play with a design so that it better suits your lifestyle and needs. If you’ve found the perfect design for you but would like to turn a bedroom into a study or hobby room, easy! We can help you change the design! Maybe you’ve got older children and want to design your home so that they have everything they need at one end of the home, while you have everything you need at the other? Let’s do it! As long as the design itself allows for it we’ll work on the floor plan with you.

Build on difficult sites…
You may have found the perfect site for your home, with fantastic views and beautiful location – but it’s a sloping site. Well with modular we can help! Our adjustable pier system allows us to build a pre-installed base for your home that we can make sure it is level and supported, allowing us to build on challenging sites! We’ll also take into account any requirements relating to Bushfire Attack Levels, or flood protection and factor this into your build so that you know your home will be safe for you and your family. So while traditional builds can struggle to build on sloping sites, or require extra work to achieve, a modular home offers a great solution!

Planning & Permits…
We’ll be here to work with you on getting your plans ready and so you can see how your home will be laid out before building. Our designers will help to create plans that suit your site as well as the layout of your home that you choose. We’ll help you plan the orientation of your home, as well as make suggestions for any additions that you may want to include. As part of our process we also offer a service to help you prepare drawings and reports so that you can lodge your permits with the local council.

We’ll help you get exactly the look and style you want…
When it comes to your new home, it’s not just the layout that’s very important, it’s the styling and finishes too! The great thing about building modular is that as part of the colours & selection process, we’ll work with you to find the perfect paints and fabulous fixtures. You’ll be able to choose from a huge range of finishes and fixtures so you know when your home is delivered to site and finished it will look exactly as you want it. There’s no need to spend your time hunting down suppliers etc – as we’ll help you find just the right style.

Factory built…
Another huge advantage of modular building is the factory process. Using hi-tech machinery and skilled trades people we build your home to 95% completion in our purpose-built factory. This allows us to be extremely precise when building your home, produces less wastage and also means your build isn’t affected by bad weather – something that modular building can offer over traditional builds! Once we’ve begun building your home we can keep you up to date on when it will be finished, to make your planning easier!

Finished to the highest quality ready for you to move in…
Once we’ve completed all the work on your home in our factory, we’ll prepare the modules for transport to your site. This is another area where modular building has big advantages – as the footings and piers have been pre-installed, a modular building can be simply placed into place when it arrives on site. Our team of skilled tradespeople will then work putting the finishing touches on your home inside and out, ready for you to move in!

Compared to a traditional build modular building offers several advantages to give you peace of mind that you will be getting the home you always dreamed of. Along with uninterrupted factory building and speedy finishing, modular building give you the ability to really tailor the design and style of your home. At Swanbuild, we’ll work with you to make sure you get the home of your dreams!
