Modular buildings have become increasingly popular in a wide variety of sectors. This growth in popularity has also meant an increase in modular building manufacturers. Deciding which manufacturer to purchase from can be overwhelming, especially for first-time modular building buyers/renters, as there are many providers to choose from. To choose the right modular building manufacturer, consider what they offer you. This can include anything from speed to experience. You must also consider what you want from your modular building and define your needs clearly for the best outcome.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN YOUR MODULAR BUILDING PROVIDER
To ensure you are getting the best quality building to fit your requirements and budget, you should consider the following:
Experience and Professionalism
Modular building companies can be massive nationwide businesses or smaller local businesses. You do not need to look for the biggest business, but you should be looking for a highly experienced one.Professional, experienced modular building manufacturers know how to get the most out of your budget, ensuring money is spent wisely and in the right places. These manufacturers also produce high-quality buildings and can advise you on aesthetic and practical decisions to provide an outstanding end result.You can check your provider’s experience by looking at case studies or asking for examples of previous work. Ensure professionalism by asking what qualifications and accreditations the company has. Remember to find out if they are helpful and easy to work with as a modular building partner by reading their reviews and testimonials. Don’t just take their word for it; find out what their previous customers think.
Sectors
Many modular building manufacturers make modular buildings for a wide variety of sectors, while others focus on fewer, more specific sectors. Make sure you check what sectors each company works with to ensure that your goals are aligned. If you’re looking for a modular office, there is little point in going to a manufacturer that offers healthcare buildings.Similarly, even if the modular building manufacturer works with various sectors, they may have more significant experience and focus more on a few specific buildings. They may offer modular sales and marketing suites but particularly excel in creating bespoke modular classrooms. You can find out if a manufacturer is an expert in your sector by asking for examples of businesses in your industry that they have worked with previously.
Speed and Cost
Modular buildings are cheaper and quicker to build than traditional structures due to most of their construction happening in a controlled factory environment. However, speed and cost are still considered when weighing a potential provider.Different modular building manufacturers vary in prices and the time in which they can have your building finished and installed. Your manufacturer must provide you with an itemised quote to avoid any surprise costs. In addition, you should be given a clear time frame to know exactly when your new building will be up and running.
Customisation
Modular buildings, new or used, can be customised to fit your individual needs. Before deciding on your modular building manufacturer, check what bespoke customisations they offer. This way, you know that your building can be refurbished to meet your exact requirements.
Customisations could include:
Accessible entrances
Branded exterior
Changing rooms
Flooring options
Roofing options
Electricity Generator
Multi-story building
Staircases
Built-in storage
Sustainability
Sustainability and protecting the environment for future generations is becoming more and more critical over time. If your business or industry is concerned with sustainability, why not use a modular building?Modular buildings are incredibly sustainable due to waste being reduced, repurposed and recycled during their factory construction. They are also built with sustainability in mind, including features such as HVAC systems, solar panels and LED lighting.Some modular building manufacturers go out of their way to further their company’s sustainability. To ensure you are buying from the most environmentally friendly manufacturer, take the time to read all potential manufacturers' sustainability policies.
Delivery
Check where your preferred modular building manufacturer operates and delivers to. Nothing would be worse than finding a manufacturer that ticks all your boxes just to discover they cannot deliver to your area.Paragon Space manufactures modular buildings in Hull but delivers nationwide.
