Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@alphamodular.com.au if you cannot find an answer to your question.

A precast concrete modular home is built from factory-made concrete modules that are transported and assembled on-site. Unlike traditional builds, much of the work — including walls, plumbing, wiring, and insulation — is completed before arriving at your property, significantly reducing build time and on-site disruption.


Depending on the size and complexity of the project, most homes are completed in 12–20 weeks, including design, approvals, factory production, transport, and on-site installation. Compared to traditional construction, this can cut build time by more than 50%.


Yes. All of our homes are fully compliant with the National Construction Code (NCC) and relevant state and local council requirements. We also meet or exceed standards for fire safety, energy efficiency, acoustics, and structural integrity.


Modular homes are often more cost-effective due to reduced build time, lower on-site labour costs, minimal weather delays, and factory-controlled efficiency.  The total project cost is typically lower, especially when considering lifetime durability and lower maintenance.


Yes. We offer a range of standardised home designs and products, but also provide custom home building services. Every home can be fully customisable — from room layout and window placement to façade finishes, kitchen design, flooring, and bathroom fittings.


Our precast concrete homes have excellent thermal mass, which helps regulate indoor temperature and reduce heating and cooling costs. Combined with insulation, double glazing, and optional solar integration, our homes can achieve 7+ NatHERS energy ratings.


Modules are transported by flatbed truck to your site and installed using a crane. Most homes can be craned into place in 1–3 days, depending on size and site access. All works are supervised by qualified engineers and site managers.


Yes. We welcome factory tours by appointment so you can see the quality of our modules firsthand. Display homes and completed projects may also be available in select locations.
