Modular Hotels & Motels-The Latest Trend in the Hotel Industry

Modular Hotels & Motels

Modular construction is the newest method of construction in the hotel industry. This type of construction is ideal for start-up companies that want a faster return on their investment compared to the traditional construction of a hotel or motel. Modular construction allows companies to design single-story or multi-story accommodations with a variety of exterior and interior finishes to choose from.

Modular hotels and motels are more time efficient to construct because a majority of the construction takes place off-site. While the modular buildings are constructed in the factory by highly trained specialized workers, while the site preparation takes place. This includes the foundation and placement of utilities on-site.


With the construction of the modular units taking place in a climate-controlled facility, there is a reduced risk of delays which makes it easier to meet construction deadlines. Traditional hotel and motel construction schedules can take several more months to complete because of inclement weather. Because there is a 30 to 50 percent shorter construction period than traditional methods, modular construction allows companies to open hotels and motels earlier and start serving guests and generating revenue sooner.


Although modular motels and hotels take a shorter period of time to construct, they are made from quality materials. Being that the building is transported to the prepared location after completion, the quality of the construction has to be strong enough to be transported and survive outdoor elements. With building standards and codes put in place for all types of construction, all modular buildings meet or exceed these standards and codes.

Since “going green” is on the mind of most consumers, businesses are feeling the pressure of turning their company green. A daunting task for business owners when going green is making sure that their new stores, buildings, offices, and homes are environmentally friendly. With today’s advances, there are green construction solutions readily available. Green construction can fit the budgetary needs of these businesses while insuring the public they are environmentally conscience.

Businesses that are committed to going “green” should consider using green modular units. With modular construction time 40 % faster than traditional construction, a project manager can have a green project delivered and installed much faster compared to building onsite.


When a company consults with a green builder, the builder already understands how environmentally conscious buildings should be constructed. By using a green modular building, the construction would take place in a climate controlled facility that would reduce on-site waste and minimize the impact on the environment. With green modular construction using upgraded insulation and high efficiency fixtures, the green unit becomes energy efficient and reduces the monthly utility expenses and use of natural resources.

Modular Emergency Housing

Modular emergency housing is a necessary resource after building, fires and natural disasters. Unfortunately, there are many times that people have been evacuated from their homes and are in need of a place to stay until it is safe for them to return. In certain cases, people who must rebuild their homes need a long term housing solution. In response to these situations, modular housing can be swiftly installed to aid any who have been affected.

Modular Units Can Be Installed Quickly

Having teams ready to build shelters might be a wonderful thing, but they cannot build a shelter as quickly as a modular unit can be deployed and installed. Modular units are the backbone of quick housing because they can allow emergency response teams to house those in need within a matter of days. By having the modular units constructed in a climate controlled facility, any construction delays due to poor weather are minimized.

Modular Units Can Be Deployed Anywhere

With modular units available, modular units can be deployed and installed practically anywhere. A modular home can be delivered and set-up in just about any location. Being readily available, modular units help emergency responders to reach residents regardless of where they are located.

Modular Units Are Actual Homes

In the light of the situation people find themselves in after an emergency, people have a tendency of comparing a modular home to a trailer. What people should realize is a modular home is an actual house. People who are in a crisis can rest assure that they will be staying in a real home while they wait to return to their own. This may not be the ideal situation, but comfort can be found when sleeping in a house rather than something that feels like a shelter.

Modular emergency housing is a solution that is necessary for certain catastrophic events and the families who need these housing solutions will certainly be thankful for their quick deployment and setup.

Modular Medical Facilities-The Latest Trend in Healthcare Construction

Modular Medical Facilities
Modular Healthcare Construction
With the technological advances in prefabricated construction, it is not surprising that modular medical facilities have become a growing trend. The advantages in modular construction include faster completion, a quality final product, and the option of portability if needed. As more and more medical companies utilize the structures, modular buildings have become more recognizable for their design possibilities and long term durability.

Faster Finish


Modular construction can be more time efficient compared to traditional construction. While the modules are constructed offsite at a climate controlled facility, the site preparation is being completed. After the completion of the modular buildings and site preparation, the buildings are then moved to the site and assembled. With minimal disruption or pollution to the healthcare construction site, there is less cleanup and construction traffic. This is particularly desirable when adding a building to an already busy area.

Climate-controlled Materials


No matter how advanced the construction method is there is no guarantee that every material has been kept free of moisture. In a modular building factory all materials are kept in a climate-controlled environment. Lumber and other materials are kept clean and dry and the environment impact on site is minimized. Construction within the controlled factory environments minimizes weather delays and allows for precise construction, resourcefulness and quality control.

Modern Exterior


Whether the project is for a clinic, laboratory, dentist office or a diagnostic center, the modular building exteriors can offer any look that the client prefers. The exteriors can be brick, stucco, cedar or other woods with an option of double pane windows that can add extra insulation. With other exterior options such as shutters, awnings, decks and landscaping, the building exterior can coordinate with existing buildings to provide continuity.

Modular construction truly does offer the best solution in healthcare construction.

Portable Office Buildings-The Mobile Space Solution

Mobile Space Solution

A portable office provides effective and useful space for a business and/or organization. With logical, useful designs and customized layouts, a mobile office can be installed in a short period of time.

Because the building is a temporary office, there is the promise of portability when the office space is no longer needed. This does not mean that the buildings are just trailers in disguise; they are real building units that range in size from small one room buildings to large multi-story buildings.

These modern office structures are not limited to aluminum siding and can be customized depending on the different needs of the company and the location’s aesthetics. A mobile office can add critical office space when a busy office suddenly outgrows its permanent home. Many businesses find it cost effective to utilize a modular building during a renovation. The floor plan of temporary offices can be configured to meets a company’s specific need. These configurations include different sized rooms, bathrooms, handicapped-accessibility, and divided office space.

With flexibility in size and features, a temporary office is a good choice for field offices. Modular units offer configurations to accommodate all types of worksite operations and can be placed at construction, mining, drilling and disaster recovery sites. These temporary offices can offer a place for planning, operational decision-making and meetings.

Like a traditional office, mobile offices can provide a positive work environment where staff can buckle down and get their work done.
