Dispelling Modular Home Myths - Part 1

Most of the time, if you want something done quickly, it can come at the cost of quality and you’ll generally be charged more for it. But, when it comes to modular builds - this actually doesn’t have to be the case. If you do your research and choose the right construction company you can have a high quality home, quickly and at a price point that is competitive with traditional builds. But not all modular companies are equal. So if you’re considering going modular for your home build, what are some of the things you need to look out for when choosing a modular home building company? Below we dispel one of the most common myths about modular builds - giving you insight into what to look out for when choosing which modular construction company in Perth to go with. 

Timatanga Modular is a Perth based family owned modular construction company delivering high quality commercial and residential modular builds across WA. Backed by over 40 years collective experience and matched with meticulous planning, efficient processes & quality materials, we deliver an exceptional standard we’re proud to put our name on. Here is the answer to one of the most common questions people ask when it comes to modular builds:  

Does faster construction times mean a compromise on quality?

It’s understandable that most people think that if a house is built quickly, it's going to be poor quality. With housing being scarce in Perth, new builds are an appealing option, however the downside is that you have to wait - often years before your home is complete. For this reason, modular builds have gained in popularity as they can be completed a lot faster but there is hesitation around the common perception that modular builds are often lower quality. Whilst there are some companies that use methods and materials that do compromise on quality in order to achieve a lower price point and completion time, this doesn’t always have to be the case. 

We know this, because we do it. We build high quality homes, our clients love to live in - in just 10-12 weeks. 

The old adage ‘work smarter, not harder’ definitely applies in this situation. With our experience & expertise and a willingness to think outside the box, we’re able to do things differently. 

We’ve worked hard to streamline and optimise our processes, and by having all work done in house by our own team of tradespeople as well as being selective about the materials we use, we are able to deliver high performing and beautiful homes to a standard that matches if not surpasses traditional builds - within months. 

Being able to build homes in Perth quickly without cutting corners is a game changer - especially with banks starting to offer home loans that make borrowing for new builds much easier and more accessible.
