What Is A Modular Bathroom

WHAT IS A MODULAR BATHROOM?

Modular bathrooms are bathroom units complete with all interior fittings and cladding, built offsite in controlled factory settings, and delivered to the building site ready for installation and connection.

All piping and electrical circuitry is in place, making connection straightforward.

This method of wet area construction dramatically reduces trade manpower on building sites, and allows time savings per typical floor finishes as well as time and cost savings across the entire project.

Bathrooms traditionally present more challenges during the build process, as they are tight areas where many trades converge.

Manufacturing in a factory environment helps to maintain a high level of quality control in areas that are typically the most time, cost and labour intensive.

Offsite bathroom pod construction is an enormously popular concept in Europe and is potentially worth some billion to the Australian industry, according to construction advisor David Chandler.

The advantages of modular bathrooms are being realized across a wide range of building projects including:

  • Hotels
  • Large Apartment Blocks
  • Education Institutions
  • Retirement Villages
  • Medium & High Density Housing
  • Student Accommodation
