What are Modular Homes?

Modular homes are built from manufactured sections, known as modules. These modules are designed to fit seamlessly together and are manufactured off-site, transported to their development and then combined to form a finished property. This modern method of construction offers a range of benefits over more traditional house building techniques.

Modular homes are built to last the same amount of time as a traditional property. Our modular homes are manufactured and installed to ensure they last for decades with proper maintenance, with all new properties receiving a 10-year NHBC certification.

Our homes are built to exacting sustainability requirements and have an EPC rating of 'A' - an achievement claimed by just 1% of all new properties in England. We ensure a high level of quality in all aspects of construction and manufacturing, with airtightness a key consideration in how our properties come together in order to reduce energy consumption for owners and occupiers.

Modular homes can be manufactured at scale and more swiftly than traditional houses. We also ensure fit and finish is a key consideration from the earliest stages of design, reducing the need for remedial works to address problems after homes are built. This all means the total cost of construction for modular properties can be lower, while being more easily predicted and controlled.

Our homes are manufactured at our 550,000 sq ft factory in Sherburn-in-Elmet, near Leeds. Bringing the modules together into a finished property requires skill and training, therefore they aren't a suitable undertaking for those looking to self-build.

The term 'volumetric' relates to the fact our homes have set layouts and cannot be changed. Volumetric modules make up the fabric of our properties and are manufactured to detailed specifications, ensuring they fit together seamlessly to create a finished home.

The modules that make up our homes are not suitable for extending existing properties. They are standalone homes created in a repeatable, exacting manner that speeds up time for construction and reduces the need for aftercare repairs.
