Why Burnaby homeowners choose modular
Burnaby's infill and laneway-accessed lots benefit from a shorter on-site build window, since most of the home is completed indoors in a factory before it arrives. That means less time as an active job site next to established neighbours.
As an authorized Solera Modular dealer, we help you choose a floorplan that fits Burnaby's typical lot widths and infill conditions.
