Site Ancillary & Civil Cost Considerations

We engineer the complete lifecycle to prevent unforeseen on-site expenditures.

01 • Civil Foundations

Engineered Ground Slab

Because volumetric steel is 60% lighter than concrete, foundation concrete volume and excavation costs are substantially reduced.

02 • Freight & Delivery

Low-bed Road & Maritime

Turnkey freight from Türkiye fabrication plant to any European plot via permitted lowbed trailers or Ro-Ro shipping.

03 • Mobile Crane Hire

Precision Lifting Rig

High-capacity telescopic mobile cranes position modules in under 45 minutes each, erecting full buildings in 2 to 4 days.

04 • Permits & Statics

Structural Sign-off

Complete Eurocode 3 calculation dossiers provided for local architectural and structural planning approval.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the average cost per square meter for a volumetric steel modular home in 2026?
Based on 2026 European export benchmarks and factory fabrication data, structural shell modules start around €650 - €850 per m² ex-factory. MEP-integrated advanced shells range from €950 to €1,250 per m², while full standard turnkey residential modules (including bathroom pods, flooring, and finishes) average between €1,250 and €1,600 per m² (premium Passivhaus luxury reaching €1,650 - €2,100 per m²).
How much do modular steel homes save compared to traditional reinforced concrete?
While direct material savings are typically 10% to 15%, the massive financial advantage comes from compressing construction schedules by up to 70%. A conventional 14-18 month building timeline incurs substantial bridge loan interest, site overheads, crane rentals, and contractor security. With modular assembly taking just 60 to 90 days on-site, total project savings frequently reach 25% to 35%, generating rental income up to a year earlier.
Are foundation, crane hire and transport included in the modular base price?
Base modular proposals typically cover manufacturing (EXW) or delivery to site boundaries (DAP). Foundation works (slab or strip footings with anchor bolts), mobile crane erection, and local municipal permit fees depend on site soil quality, topography, and jurisdiction. SERMODULA provides complete civil foundation interface coordination (Service S09) and transport/crane logistics (Service S10) with fully itemized costs.
Are volumetric steel modular homes eligible for mortgages and bank financing?
Yes. SERMODULA buildings are not temporary cabins; they are permanent real estate engineered to EN 1090-2 (EXC3) execution class, designed under Eurocode 3, and bolted permanently to concrete foundation slabs. Because they carry full building permits and residential land registry status, they are 100% eligible for standard residential mortgages and green financing (KfW 40 / Passivhaus loans in the EU).
