Everything You Need to Know Before Hiring a Modular Building

Need temporary building or site facilities? Ausco Modular’s expert team is here to assist. With 60 years of industry experience, you can be reassured you will receive a safe and hassle-free delivery and installation of your temporary modular space.

Paul Brennen, Business Development Representative for Ausco Modular Adelaide explains the process.

Tips to help you prepare for your new space:

Permits and approvals

Ausco Modular’s Paul Brennen said their trained team can assist you in ensuring all required permits are obtained prior to delivery.

“Generally, a temporary hire involves full development approval and council permits. Ausco takes care of the planning approval and private certification for building rules ensuring full development approval can be secured.” said Paul.

Ensure the space is suitable

Your local Ausco representative will make regular site visits to ensure an area is suitable for a modular building. The area and buildings will be specifically engineered to ensure all necessary permits and approvals are secured. This will ensure your modular buildings footing details, as well as any additional building engineering requirements for hilly or uneven surfaces, are managed and controlled right from the beginning.

Connecting the unit

“Prior to delivery, your Ausco representative will source the best location on the block to enable access to the above and below ground services, for the utilities, the building requires.” advised Paul.

“Ausco is able to connect all utilities as part of delivery, dependant on the client’s requirements and scope of work.”

Fitout

As part of Ausco’s add ons and services offer, specific furniture and appliance bundles suitable for the modular space can be recommended and sourced. These bundles can be delivered with your unit and ensure you are ready to work from day one.

Ausco Modular also offers a range of unique products like Coverflex and SealSafeTM to aid in an efficient site setup.

Coverflex is Ausco Modular's covered walkway product, the perfect solution to providing instant protection outside and in between your buildings on site. Ideal for construction sites, Coverflex replaces the need for custom-built decking.

Ausco Modular’s patented SealSafe system is making the installation of complex modules safer and faster.

Working at heights is one of the highest risk activities on a building site, but Ausco Modular’s SealSafe system is changing the way the modular and construction industries view safety by completely eliminating the need to access the roof during complex module installations.
