What is a modular building?
Modular building is the term used to describe buildings that are made from one or more pre-fabricated sections (also known as modules). Rather than being constructed on-site like traditional buildings, they are fabricated in a factory in sections before being assembled on-site to create a temporary or permanent building. Just as with traditional structures, modular buildings can come in a huge range of sizes and configurations, styles, and finishes. Modules can be put together in a wide range of designs, from single story layouts, to buildings that are multiple storeys high, they are sometimes called prefabricated buildings. Because of this they provide a very high quality product at a competitive cost.
What is your process?
Initially, we’ll listen to you and your requirements to work out exactly what you need before creating a modular construction and building design that ticks each checkbox. We pride ourselves on our quality service and will keep you informed through every step of the journey. Starting with the basic design and running through the stages of planning, manufacture, ground works, installation, fit out, steps and ramps; your building will cater to needs that can range from accessibility and visibility to internal arrangement and modern technology. But it doesn't end there, as we also provide expert landscaping to remove all evidence that the area was ever a construction site, making it ready for immediate use whilst adhering to strict health and safety standards. The final stage is the handover process, with Paragon Space talking you through features and applications in detail whilst ensuring that the information is digestible and designed for easy future reference. We're dedicated to making the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible, giving you a building that will stand the test of time and take whatever your industry may throw at it.
What materials are used in modular construction?
Whilst traditional construction requires a lot of bricks and mortar, modular buildings are usually made from a wooden frame and fitted with drywall. The lighter nature of the building makes it much faster and easier to install on your site, all while retaining structural integrity thanks to exceptional engineering and craftsmanship. For added peace of mind, all of our buildings comply with English, Scottish and Welsh Building Regulations, including Part L2a and Part M, plus we can provide fully HBN/HTM healthcare buildings.
What are the advantages of modular construction?
Modular construction is much faster and cost-effective than traditional construction. The modular buildings are manufactured in our own facility and then installed on your site very quickly by our team, which also reduces noise, disruption and safety risks on your premises.
What are the advantages of prefabricated buildings?
Aside from being a faster and more cost-effective option, modular buildings offer total flexibility and adaptability. You can decide the size, layout and overall aesthetic of the building, as well as how any furniture, equipment and technology will be integrated into its interior. On top of this, we can install additional modules when you want to expand.
