Modern Community Centre

Community centres provide essential space for a variety of functions, including meetings, classes, events and sporting activities. Any village or town can benefit from these buildings, but not every urban area has the traditional legacy stone building that community centres are usually converted from. 

 

This is where modular construction fills the gap. Modular methods can create a large permanent building at a low cost without the uncertainties of traditional construction, giving your community the building they have been waiting for.

Specialist Construction for the Community

We are modular construction experts who specialise in large, permanent, modern buildings, from schools to leisure centres. For your community centre, we can construct:

  • Multi-purpose halls (for performances, fitness classes, and more)
  • Meeting rooms
  • Gyms and changing areas for all ages
  • Specialist therapy rooms for children or adults with sensory needs
  • Lounges or lobbies
  • Receptions
  • Dining areas and cafes
  • Libraries or resource centres

We put great importance on accessibility, inclusivity and security when designing a community centre.

 

Cost Effective Community Spaces

We understand the importance of budget constraints for local councils. Modular construction offers cost-effective solutions by utilising factory-controlled production, streamlined processes, and reduced labour costs. 

Additionally, the controlled environment of our manufacturing facility minimises material waste and ensures optimal resource utilisation. With modular community centres, you can achieve your goals while staying within your allocated budget.

From Meeting Halls to Multi-Purpose Complexes

Whether you are looking for a single or double storey building, modular construction is tailored to your needs. We can create specialised spaces for specific activities and unique design elements, including multi-use layout configurations, interior finishes, and exterior aesthetics.

Our experienced team of designs collaborate closely with you to understand your requirements, translating them into a fully customised modular community centre that aligns perfectly with your vision and benefits your community.

 

Empower Your Community

Unlock the potential of your community with a modular community centre that serves as an inclusive hub for arts, culture, exercise, and learning. With its multi-use design, our modular community centres can cater to diverse activities, including art exhibitions, cultural events, fitness classes, and educational workshops. Engage the community in a vibrant space that promotes creativity, inclusivity, physical well-being, and lifelong learning.

 

How long does it take to construct a modular community centre?

Modular construction is known for its efficiency, speed and resistance to delays. Compared to traditional construction methods, modular construction can significantly reduce the construction timeline. Rest assured, we prioritise timely delivery without compromising quality. When we know the size and complexity of your community centre we can give you a timeline estimate you can have confidence in, from the initial contact stage through to building handover.

 

Are modular community centres as durable as traditionally constructed buildings?

Our modern community centres are built to the same standards as traditionally constructed buildings. We use high quality steel, concrete and wood and lay the foundations needed for flawless structural integrity. We follow industry best practices and rigorous quality control measures to ensure that our modular community centres meet and exceed building code requirements.

Why Choose Modular Buildings Over a Traditional Build Method?

Modular buildings offer a range of benefits that make them a superior choice for community use. Their flexibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness make them an ideal solution for community spaces. Here’s why modular buildings are the smart choice for all within the community:

 

  • Rapid Construction: Modular construction significantly reduces project timelines, ensuring faster occupancy and minimal disruption to the existing site. With offsite manufacturing and simultaneous onsite preparation, modular buildings can be constructed in a fraction of the time compared to traditional builds.
  • Scalability and Adaptability: The usage of the building can change over time, and modular buildings provide the flexibility to adapt. Additional modules can be easily added, accommodating different usage of spaces and design elements can also be customised to create designated areas for specific purposes.
  • Cost Savings: Modular construction offers cost advantages over traditional build methods. The streamlined construction process reduces labour costs and minimises expenses associated with site management. Offsite fabrication ensures precise material usage, minimising waste and further driving down costs.
  • High Quality and Sustainability: Modular buildings are constructed in a controlled factory environment, resulting in high-quality construction and adherence to strict building standards. Additionally, modular construction promotes sustainability by reducing waste, energy consumption, and environmental impact.

 

Choose modular buildings to enjoy faster construction, flexibility, cost savings, and sustainable solutions for your community needs.

The Modulek Process

Expect exceptional customer care from your initial enquiry to final delivery of your project.

 

1. Community Centre Design

We start with a site visit to meet you, understand your aspirations, and assess your existing site. This gives us the foundation to design a community centre that meets your current requirements while also considering future needs. 

Utilising cutting-edge technology, we can present the design of your building clearly to all necessary parties, ensuring a thorough review before construction commences. 

Our buildings are meticulously designed to comply with the strictest building regulations. 

 

2. Manufacturing

All our modular buildings are manufactured in our advanced offsite factory. Our in-house team of highly experienced and skilled construction professionals, trained to the highest standards, handles the entire manufacturing process. Each modular build is assigned a dedicated project manager to maintain high standards and ensure adherence to precise drawings. We also provide a dedicated site manager to prioritise health and safety protocols and minimise disruptions during construction. By constructing our buildings offsite, we minimise disruption and closely monitor each phase, ensuring a smooth and efficient build. While our skilled construction professionals work offsite, our onsite team prepares the ground, lays foundations, and organises necessary services.

 

3. Installation

Our highly experienced team carefully manoeuvres the modules into position using cranes, completing the installation in less than two days in most cases. Our full turnkey solution includes comprehensive services such as base preparation, foundation installation, service connections (water, gas, electricity), drainage connections, surface water storage, delivery, installation, access/escape ramps or steps, fire alarm integration with existing buildings, data installations, and optional furniture and fittings. 

 

4. Finishing Touches

Once your community centre is constructed, we go the extra mile to ensure a seamless transition to a grand opening. We offer services to landscape the surrounding area, construct tarmac or gravel pathways, fence outdoor spaces, and even deck designated areas. The building is not handed over to you until it is fully fit for purpose, allowing you to give all visitors an exceptional experience from day one.
