Modular Home Materials
Modular Homes - Why Materials Matter
Sometimes when people think of modular homes, they think of transportables. Temporary homes made quickly and cheaply that are easy to move around, and aren’t made to last. But modular homes are not the same as transportables. Yes, they are made off site and transported to their final location but that is where the similarities generally end. It can differ from company to company but modular homes can be built to the same standards (if not higher) as a traditional home, using the same materials and similar construction processes. You’re essentially getting the same product, but just much quicker. Again, this will differ between modular home building companies. Below, we discuss the processes and materials we use to build our modular homes and what enables us to to build a high quality home in a fraction of the time that it takes to complete a traditional build.
Timatanga Modular is a Perth based family owned company delivering high quality commercial, residential and modular builds across WA. Backed by over 40 years collective experience, matched with meticulous planning, efficient processes and quality materials, we deliver an exceptional standard we’re proud to put our name on. Want to know how much modular homes are in Perth. Here are the materials and construction processes we use to build high quality permanent homes in just weeks.
The materials and construction processes we use for our modular homes
The materials that your modular home is built with make a considerable difference. A home built with the right materials, using the right construction processes will:
Last longer
Be more energy efficient
Have lower ongoing maintenance costs
will ensure better year round comfort (warmer in winter, cooler in summer),
Have better acoustics
We ensure the materials we use for our modular homes are able to withstand the Western Australian climate. This is important, not only because your home will last longer, look better and require less ongoing maintenance but it also means your home will be more energy efficient too. You’ll find that a home built with cheaper alternatives will often be too hot in summer and cold in winter.
When it comes to our modular construction processes, we follow the same fundamentals as traditional methods with the same materials (e.g. concrete floors, steel walls and roof frames, insulation, plaster board lining, architectural exterior cladding etc). But, the difference is that by building in our purpose built facility with a fully in-house team of tradespeople we’re able to streamline these processes and work to tighter timelines with more stringent quality controls.
Our modular homes are not temporary builds designed for a short term purpose, they are high quality homes built to last.
