“Fantastic customer service, always willing to help. Adrian was great and made the process simple.”
“Errol was fantastic making sure I was happy with how high the house was going to sit on the block. Have already recommended them to a family member and would definitely build with them again.”
“Very happy with Adrian. Zero sales pressure and received practical advice. Fiona had excellent attention to detail, and appreciated the expertise and patience of staff through design and prestart.”
“Totally satisfied from start to finish, especially with follow up maintenance to date. More care could have been taken with dust left on the floors. Many thanks – will recommend to others!”
“Flawless at every stage. Best part was the speed of responses and flexibility in planning. Height restrictions were frustrating but that is out of Modular’s control. Very very happy. Thanks so much!”
“Excellent. Whenever we had a question or concern it was answered/rectified quickly. House feels solid and quality – not like a transportable would have years ago. We would use Modular WA again.”
“Dean definitely made the experience an enjoyable one. He has made us feel part of the building process every step of the way. Couldn’t really ask for much more – only COVID-19 meaning we couldn’t get up there when we hoped.”
“We liked the freedom of being able to view our house whenever we wanted – and dealing with such an amazing bunch of people. Nothing bad to say. Professional, efficient, and very honest.”

“Just great. Exciting and very pleasant all round. Will recommend Modular WA to anyone!”
“Adrian was always happy to help us and Fiona coped well with our crazy! The on-site boys are legends – they got the work done for us as quickly as they could and were pleasant to deal with.”
“Thank you Modular WA. We liked showing our family through the house while it was being built, before it went to Exmouth. The delivery drivers were smooth and skillful when placing the modules together.”
“Easy & stress free! Would definitely recommend Modular WA and would build with them again.”
“Fabulous. Would build with them again!”
“We are now the proud owners of a Modular WA home in Lancelin. We cannot fault any part of the process, and cannot thank everyone at Modular WA enough for a flawless job. The time out of a house was 4 weeks and is a highly recommended method of building a quality home very quickly. Thanks Modular WA!”
“Absolutely fantastic. Good price, excellent quality & great caring staff who all displayed an outstanding attitude and exemplary customer service. We have no hesitation in recommending Modular WA to others.”
“Overall a good experience and happy with the outcome. Very big thanks to Fiona for her patience and communication – she was approachable and always responsive.”
“We have had the most amazing custom built modular home built and delivered to our farm. From our first meeting and all the way through, everyone we dealt with was helpful, professional and really listened to what we were wanting. Amazing what a difference the paved verandah makes! Our home rocks for all the right reasons.”
“Tops. Great company to deal with and great staff. Adrian had a wonderful attitude. Worst bit was my impatience – but Modular WA kept to their promise to deliver on time!”
“The best part was the speed and quality of our build. Taking on the site works ourselves was a little stressful but it all worked out in the end. We wouldn’t hesitate to build with Modular WA again – a very positive experience!”
“Exceptional!!! Nothing was a problem. The team was very practical and kept us calm during what seemed to us very big decisions.”
“Adrian was the sort of person we like to deal with – a ‘no-bullshit’ type. Not pushy, very helpful and obliging! The whole process has been a very good experience. ”

“Pain free, easy, and stress free. Build time was super quick especially with the challenges of building at the moment. Everyone was a pleasure to deal with and made the building process a breeze.”
Modular construction can be a rapid process with a house taking as little as 10 – 14 weeks to construct however… it’s important to remember that we’ll need to check off a lot of items before we can get to that stage. The current realistic timeline from initial sign up to move in day is somewhere between 10 – 12 months.
This takes into account ample time for design tailoring / site testing / reports & certifications / council approvals / prestart consultation / material supply, before the actual construction of your new modular home begins. Once your house arrives, siteworks usually take around another 4 weeks depending on what you have opted to include in your contract.
We currently deliver statewide across Western Australia – from Exmouth to Esperance, and everywhere in between. Please note that some blocks may not be suited for a modular delivery. Click the next FAQ to find out more.
Unfortunately metro locations, battleaxe, house-behind-house lots, and very steep sites may not be suitable due to the restrictions associated with transporting our heavy concrete bases. For example, our homes are not suited for backyard granny flat installations in the inner suburbs of Perth, but we absolutely could install a modular home on a larger property in say… Toodyay or Bridgetown!
If you’re unsure, give us a quick phone call and we can check your block to see if we’ll be able to work together.
Yes, absolutely! Everything we do is built-to-order, and modifying plans is no issue. We suggest marking up one of our existing designs to take advantage of tried and tested layouts. If you’ve got a vision, you can absolutely create your own from scratch too. Just have a chat with us before you start sketching and we can help you with our module size constraints.
Unlike traditional site built homes construction of modular homes can start while the building permit application is being lodged and approved and this can save a significant amount of time. The homes are built in our manufacturing yards using dedicated teams of skilled tradesman, no need to wait while tradesmen travel from site to site as they do in traditional build methods. While your Modular WA home is being built in the manufacturing yard, work can also be underway on your site in preparation for delivery of the building.
Yes! First our sales consultants will carry out a block review using satellite and mapping imagery for initial investigations. If we have any concerns, we’ll send one of our site teams to do an in-person assessment before you sign anything at all.
No worries. Speak to one of our sales consultants and we’ll happily have a look and offer our professional opinions. We’ll help point out the things you may miss, any potential risks or cost blowouts, or hidden benefits one block may have over the other. Our team can help you with this decision as part of our service ethos, free of charge, and before you sign anything.
Yes! There are now many banks which support modular finance. In 2023 Bankwest announced a new Modular initiative to support lending for new modular homes across Western Australia, however this is just one of many options at your disposal. If you’re having trouble securing finance with your preferred bank, let us assist you with some guidance. We also have a selection of recommended finance brokers who specialise in modular lending if required.
Of course you can! We would encourage you to use your preferred bank or mortgage broker or you can speak to one of our brokers who can help you every step of the way.
Our modular homes are constructed in purpose-built manufacturing facilities under constant supervision. This enables Modular WA to ensure that works are completed to the highest standards of quality every single time. With dedicated supervisors and quality control officers, all whom have many years experience – you can rest assured your home is in good hands with our award-winning team of experts.
Definitely. We have built many homes in cyclonic regions along the Pilbara and Gascoyne coastlines. Our homes have proven time and time again that modular is a durable, safe building option for WA’s harshest conditions. Please ask us about additional costs associated with engineering to a cyclonic rated level.
Yes. We take care of the building permit as part of our standard process so you don’t have to worry about it! We’ll also water corporation approvals and can assist with subdivision advice, effluent/septic applications, planning and developer approvals too if required.
In almost all cases, a building permit granted by a permit authority such as the Shire Council will be required before a modular home can be delivered. Technically anyone can apply for a building permit whether it’s the owner, builder, designer, or someone else involved in the project – however at Modular WA we will take care of this for you unless you opt otherwise. In order to be granted a building permit, plans must undergo a number of independent certifications (structural, engineering, energy efficiency, etc), and as the Builder we assume responsibility for ensuring the construction complies with all applicable Australian building standards (NCA, BCA, etc) and any other requirements stipulated in the approved building permit.
Yes, all of our designs are compliant with the National Building Codes and relevant Australian Standards. Every project is also independently certified by multiple consultants for design compliance, structural and engineering, energy and other approvals as required for standard Australian residential building permits.
We use fully engineered, pre-stressed concrete floors as the base for the construction of all of our homes. These concrete floors are superior for energy efficiency, acoustics, and durability, and allow us to transport the fully complete home to site anywhere in Western Australia without feeling like a “donga”. Once the home is installed the concrete floor results in a great solid underfoot feeling, as if the house must have been built on site.
