Great to see the two tones coming together on this build. The weatherboard (still to be painted) already pairs beautifully with the vertical Trimdeck in Surfmist. Loving the clean, modern contrast taking shape.

Modular homes can be affordable, sustainable and cost-effective, with builds often completed in around 12 weeks (depending on site and design).
They must comply with engineering requirements, including Wind Region D where applicable, as well as the Building Code and NCC.
It’s important to choose reputable, experienced local builders and do your research.

An engineering and environmental consultant has raised concerns over the use of modular housing to help alleviate Karratha's housing crisis.

It comes after the Housing Industry Association warned housing shortages in regional Australia could deepen.

Peter Long from Engineers Australia’s northern WA group says modular housing can work, but needs to be up to standard in the cyclone-prone Pilbara.

“Builders have said to me that there’s houses only three years old that they're having to pull out walls and replace them,” Mr Long told ABC Pilbara Breakfast.

Mr Long said some modular homes had water ingress as a result of inadequate air circulation underneath the floor, and certain cladding was more vulnerable to flying objects.

“It’s just got to be properly built and properly clad so that it'll work.”

Local property developer Carissa Ives says modular homes are subject to the same strict land and building conditions in-situ developments are.

“Our cyclonic region, our energy efficiency, our structural engineering, it all has to be specific to our region,” Ms Ives said.

She said the properties have had region-specific structural upgrades to the chassis, frame, panels and fixtures to align with the region’s cyclonic rating.

“We’ve probably come in at a good time where all the previous issues have been learnt from and our requirements for engineering and certification, they're already preset for us.

“A reason we built within WA is because the people we chose could meet the requirements for this region.”

We get asked:mirrored robe doors or coloured panels — which is better?
The truth is, both can completely transform your space… it just depends on the look and feel you’re going for.
Mirrored robes open up your space - it reflects the natural light and doubles as a full length mirror - This is my choice
Coloured robes elevate your style - range of colours & textures, blends with walls & furniture, adds warmth & personality.
Both are stunning — it just depends on the vibe you want.

We get asked all the time: “But can’t I get it cheaper overseas?”
Sure you can. But cheaper doesn’t mean better. Many overseas products don’t meet Australian Standards, and that can lead to safety issues, poor performance, and expensive fixes later on.
Before you buy, do your research or ask us.

Young couples, families and retirees are being priced out of building — but they shouldn’t have to be.
Traditional construction costs keep climbing, timelines keep blowing out, and for many people, the dream of a new home feels further away than ever.
That’s exactly why modular is taking off.
If building the old way no longer fits the budget, modular opens the door again.
Affordable. High‑quality. Move‑in ready sooner

Thinking About Building? Here’s Why Modular Makes Sense!
Faster Completion - Modules are built in a factory while site prep happens at the same time saving you months.
Cost & Quality You Can Count On - Factory-controlled construction means better predictability, fewer surprises, and consistent quality.
Energy Efficient - Precision fabrication reduces waste and boosts energy performance.
Modular isn’t just modern, it’s smarter, faster, and more efficient.
