When the house you’ve loved for years suddenly starts to feel too small for your needs, one of the most innovative ways to turn it back into a home is to create more room right where you are. Creating a second-storey (or third or fourth) becomes an easy task when you get companies like Modular Group involved. Modular Group has helped make this solution come to life for dozens of homes across the Greater Toronto Area, leaving families with a quick and easy solution, a better resale value on their home, and most importantly, more space.

The Modular system carries pre-designed structures, giving homeowners options of 36 exterior walls, roof styles and domers, like picking and choosing the pieces of your own home. The process works wonderfully for mid-century homes that weren’t built with the area that homes now require, and also offer the opportunity to refresh the exterior and interior. Modular can move rooms around and restructure the home in its entirety, including the foundation.

About the Builder

Modular has developed a revolutionary concept using sophisticated computer software and building techniques. In just days, a second storey addition or new home, custom designed to your needs, can be built. All structural building parts are designed and built in a climate controlled environment. This enables us to have a high quality level and build all year round without leaving your house vulnerable to weather conditions. There is minimal noise, dust and no mess.

Innovation in Construction Award Winner

Using wood and stone in darker tones, enhanced and visually warmed up this large kitchen with lots of natural light. Refacing kept the budget in check, and retaining the existing boxes and flooring also makes this an eco-friendly project.
