Why New Westminster homeowners choose modular
New Westminster's steep, narrow lots make lengthy on-site construction especially disruptive to neighbours. Because a modular home arrives largely complete from the factory, the on-site portion of the project is significantly shorter than conventional construction.
As an authorized Solera Modular dealer, we help you choose a floorplan and orientation that works with the city's grade and lot dimensions.
