Modular Construction for Emergency Housing Solutions


emergency disaster planning

Mother nature has unleashed her fury this year with all sorts of disastrous storms.  Hurricanes, tropical storms, earthquakes and tornadoes have displaced large numbers of residents and businesses.  Government agencies immediately stepped in to help victims by providing food, water and emergency shelters.

After these initial steps, areas struck by natural disasters often look to rebuild.  Most look for an immediate temporary solution to begin, and then consider permanent solutions for the future.  Portable disaster housing is the only choice in many scenarios because it provides immediate relief.

Traditional housing solutions often take too long to construct and sometimes, new construction is not feasible with the poor ground conditions caused by the storm and damage and debris.  In emergencies, modular construction has become the housing solution of choice because the buildings are primarily constructed off-site and there is less impact to the environment.

Modular buildings and homes come in a variety of sizes and finishes to meet the needs of the specific emergency at hand.  They can be customized to meet your exact space needs and if needed immediately, pre-leased modular buildings can often be quickly refurbished and delivered.  Modular units are far easier to transport and assemble than traditional disaster housing units.


When a disaster strikes, the best emergency response shelters and buildings should be available to those in need.  Modular emergency response buildings ensure you will receive a quality home quickly to assist in recovery efforts.
