Modular Retail Buildings

Looking to build a new restaurant, bank or hotel? Consider modular construction! Hoping to expand on a pre-existing country club or casino? Consider modular construction! Yes, modular construction is applicable to almost any building project, and here's why:

Ten Reasons to Construct a Modular Retail Building:

1. Off-Site Construction – Anyone who works in retail knows that satisfying the customer is the most important thing, and what's more annoying than loud, intrusive 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 buildings or patrons that may occupy the surrounding area

2. Cost-Efficiency – Modular construction takes place off-site, meaning money can be saved in several areas. Firstly, you're paying for less labour and fewer working hands. As well, because the factories are able to purchase its products in bulk, the savings are felt across the board.

3. Speed – In a standard modular building process, buildings are usually built and ready to deliver within 45 days of the order being placed. This could be vital to anyone hoping to have their retail building up and running in a short amount of time.

4. High Completion Rate – Typically, up to 90% of a modular building is built and assembled at the factory. Of course this means walls, window and door frames, but also electrical outfits, plumbing and mechanical finishes. All of this can all be assembled at the factory. This can be a huge time saver for your retail building, as lengthy delays can be avoided and your modular retail building can be up and running within just a few days of delivery.

5. Design Options – Don't assume that going modular means cheap and limited design options. As technology evolves, new design methods become available, meaning you can incorporate concrete, steel, brick and other masonry into your exterior or interior design.

6. Strength – Your modular retail unit will be built with the highest grade materials available. Modular buildings are designed to withstand damage, and are known to last for extended periods of time.

7. Expansion Options – We've already mentioned that modular construction is perfect for additions such as new hotel wings and larger country clubs, 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 door where a solid wall stands, for example, the process is relatively cheap and easy.

8. Ability to Relocate – While you may not be planning on relocating your retail building any time soon, know that relocation is a possibility. Even if you've built your retail building on a permanent foundation, modular buildings are designed to endure multiple relocations.

9. Tax Breaks – Also be aware that 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.

10. Green – It seems everyone is looking to be a little bit greener these days, so know that modular construction is an environmentally friendly choice. Construction takes place in doors, off-site, meaning less dust and pollutants in the air, as well as reduced site disturbance and erosion. Go modular? Go green!
