What to expect when you're expecting.. a modular building

We know you, our customers, value reliability and quality. Having everything arrive as intended and in great working order is critical to your project’s success and we spend a lot of time making sure that we're providing this.

For decades, construction companies have chosen temporary modular buildings for their jobsite for obvious reasons: they’re fast, flexible and affordable. This doesn't mean low quality, however. 

Our efficient and rigorous building preparation and preventative maintenance system means you receive the product that you want to the standard you expect every time.

Upon return, buildings are inspected and required repairs are identified. A detailed visual inspection is undertaken on building lifting attachment points between each hire.

Buildings are then selected for preparation based on customer requirements.

Repairs and general maintenance is completed. Roof checks and repairs, removal of non-standard fixtures and components, replacement of faulty or damaged fixtures and components, repairs and painting of components to meet, and quality standards and structural checks.

The buildings electrical components are tested by a licenced electrician to meet AS3000 and AS3012, along with state specific compliances.

A water and air test is conducted on any building that has plumbing components, including hot water services.

Buildings are cleaned internally and externally. Vinyl floors are stripped and sealed using commercial cleaners.

Ancillary items such as microwaves, fridges, miniboils and airconditioners are tested, cleaned and carefully packed inside the building to ensure safe travel.

A quality inspection is completed against documented quality standards. Any faults are recorded and rectification works completed before despatch to the customer. Repeated faults are identified and reduced/eliminated through tracking, reporting and root cause analysis to ensure continuous improvement.
