Looking to build a new healthcare facility or modular medical office buildings? Consider modular construction! Modular buildings are perfect for the construction of a new healthcare facility. Build new medical training facilities, doctor offices, physical therapy centres or dental centres. Looking to add space to a pre-existing building? Not a problem! Modular construction is ideal for additions like new hospital wings, administrative space, clean rooms and more. With modular construction, no project is off limits.

But don't just take our word for it. Below is a list of the top 10 reasons why you should go modular for your next healthcare building construction project.

Ten Reasons to Construct a Modular Healthcare Building

1. Off-Site Construction – When you choose modular construction, your building is constructed off site, in a controlled factory environment. This means less hassle for you, as well as limited disturbance to any pre-existing medical buildings that may occupy the surrounding area

2. Cost-Efficiency – Because modular construction takes place off-site, money can be saved in several areas. Firstly because you're paying for less labour and fewer assembling hands, but also because the factories are able to purchase its products in bulk, meaning bigger savings for you.

3. Speed – Modular buildings are usually built and ready to deliver within 45 days of the order being placed. This could be detrimental to anyone hoping to have their medical building up and running in a short amount of time.

4. High Completion Rate – Up to 90% of your modular building can be built and assembled in the factory. But this doesn't just include walls and windows; electrical outfits, plumbing and mechanical finishes can all be assembled at the factory. This can be a huge time saver for your healthcare building, as lengthy delays can be avoided and medical procedures can commence as soon as the unit has been placed.

5. Strength – Rest assured, your modular unit will be built with the best materials available. Modular buildings can withstand damage, and are known to last for long periods of time.

6. Expansion Options – We've already mentioned that modular construction is perfect for additions such as hospital wings and administrative space, but you should also know that modular buildings are designed to withstand extra expansion even after construction. Most wall panels are interchangeable, so if you need a window where a solid wall stands, for example, the process is relatively cheap and easy.

7. Design Options – New technology has allowed for new design methods. Today, it's possible to incorporate concrete, steel, brick and other masonry into your exterior or interior design.

8. Tax Breaks – There are some favourable tax breaks available to modular construction, including depreciation rules. Most modular buildings qualify for a seven year depreciation period, compared to over 30 years for conventional buildings.

9. Ability to Relocate – While you may not be planning on relocating your medical building just yet, know that relocation is possible. Even if you've built your medical building on a permanent foundation, modular buildings are designed to endure multiple relocations.

10. Green – Most people are conscious of their decisions these days, and how those decisions affect our planet. Know that modular construction is a green choice, as construction takes place in doors, off-site, meaning less dust and pollutants in the air, and reduced site disturbance and erosion. When you go modular, you go green.
