Knowledge & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions & Knowledge Base

Comprehensive answers regarding modular residential projects, custom design, apartment buildings, turnkey export, pricing and crane assembly.

Are catalogue models required?
No. The current service begins with your brief and site. A verified model catalogue can be introduced later.
Can I request a custom design?
Yes. Accommodation, site conditions and transport constraints inform the concept and coordinated design.
Can we use our own drawings?
Existing drawings can support the initial review. Modular suitability and design-use rights must be assessed.
Can I start before buying land?
An early brief is possible, but site-specific decisions remain open until location and land information are confirmed.
Is modular housing suitable for permanent living?
Suitability depends on the actual design, specification, intended use and local approvals.
Is this a container home?
A volumetric construction method does not necessarily use shipping containers. The structural system is defined for the project.
Is a modular home the same as a tiny house?
Modular describes a construction approach; tiny house describes a scale or category. Modular projects can include apartments and communities.
Can modules be combined?
Yes, subject to coordinated structural, spatial, service and junction design. A module is not necessarily a complete dwelling.
Can the home be expanded later?
Future expansion needs planned structural, foundation, service and local approval provisions.
Can it be relocated?
Relocation requires an assessment of demounting, condition, transport and the new site. It is not automatic.
Which structural material is used?
The proposed system and material specification are established during project design; no universal certified product system is claimed here.
What are the wall layers?
A project layer schedule will specify products, thicknesses, interfaces and supporting evidence. There is no approved universal wall build-up published yet.
Is thermal performance guaranteed?
Project targets and verification must be agreed. A material brochure alone does not establish complete-building performance.
How is acoustic separation addressed?
Separating elements, junctions and service routes are coordinated and an appropriate verification method is defined.
How is fire performance addressed?
The local fire strategy, system details and supporting evidence are established by the appointed professionals.
Are kitchens included?
Cabinets, fronts, hardware, worktops, sinks, taps and appliances are itemised. Inclusion depends on the signed scope.
Are bathrooms included?
Waterproofing, finishes, fixtures, fittings, ventilation and tests are itemised in the project scope.
Are heating and cooling included?
Equipment, distribution, controls, connections and commissioning are separately specified.
Are electrical and plumbing systems completed in the factory?
The factory and site boundaries are defined, including inter-module and local utility connections.
Do I need local approvals?
The intended use, site and jurisdiction determine the process. Your appointed local professionals verify the requirements.
Who designs the foundations?
A competent locally appointed designer coordinates ground conditions and module interface information.
Who carries out the site works?
The proposal identifies the responsible local contractor or other appointed party and the included works.
How are modules transported?
The packed dimensions, mass, route and site access determine the transport method and carrier quotation.
Can SERMODULA arrange installation?
Installation scope and destination organisation are reviewed for the specific project and appointment.
Is supervision the same as installation?
No. Technical supervision is distinct from labour, equipment and contractor site-delivery responsibility.
What if the site is not ready?
The agreed contract governs waiting, storage and remobilisation. Readiness is checked before dispatch.
Is factory lead time the total project duration?
No. Design, local processes, procurement, transport, site work and commissioning also affect the programme.
Does the destination change the quotation?
Local requirements and destination costs are separately established even where the factory basis is shared.
Why is a price per square metre insufficient?
Area definition, specification, fit-out, taxes and delivery scope must be equal before prices are comparable.
What does turnkey include?
Only the agreed work and responsibility schedule defines it, including foundations, utilities, equipment and local approvals.
How is the payment plan established?
It follows agreed design and production stages, acceptance conditions and the commercial contract.
How are multiple dwellings priced?
Quantity, repeatability, specification and delivery phases are assessed; there is no automatic unverified volume discount.
What documents are handed over?
The contract schedules drawings, operating information, equipment documents and factory or site acceptance records.
How does international support work?
Remote support, suppliers and local service responsibilities are defined for the component and contract.
What is the warranty period?
Only the approved contract and component warranties establish the applicable duration, coverage and conditions.
Can I become a project partner?
Yes, enquiries are assessed by country and role. Commercial and technical terms are agreed separately.
Do you consider apartment buildings?
Yes. Dwelling modules are assessed alongside structure, cores, common spaces and local engineering.
How many floors can be built?
No universal verified SERMODULA storey limit is published. Height and system depend on the project engineering and local assessment.
Does one module equal one apartment?
No. An apartment may use multiple modules; cores and common spaces are separate building elements.
Is the full design fee repeated for every apartment?
First-type development is separated from changes for building, floor, loads, façade and services.
Are stairs and lifts included?
They must appear explicitly in the scope. An apartment-module price does not imply a complete core or common systems.
Can you coordinate estate roads and utilities?
Masterplanning and infrastructure coordination can be appointed. Detailed local design and construction have separate responsible parties and fees.
Do you have teams in every listed country?
No ready-team claim is made. Each project requires verified local roles, approval and delivery arrangements.
How are apartment or estate design fees calculated?
Site, buildings, floors, dwellings, unique types, area and local requirements are broken into defined service packages.
