Modular Buildings Caribbean
Modular buildings in the Caribbean are a cost-effective and weather-resistant solution whether your need for more space is temporary or permanent. They offer just as many design options as traditionally built buildings, including multi-story floor plans, and can be customized for a wide range of uses.
Affordable Structures is one of the top modular building installation companies serving the Southeastern United States and the Caribbean. We specialize in the manufacture of portable and permanent modular buildings for residential, commercial and industrial applications.
Located in Apollo Beach and Tavares, Florida, our markets include the Southeastern United States and the Caribbean. We provide full transportation, construction, and installation services for a wide range of portable export buildings. Our modular building transport can be either craned onto a ship or row/row.
Years of experience makes Affordable Structures uniquely qualified to deal with the logistics and unique challenges involved with international modular construction projects. Our specially trained crews are prepared to work in multi-lingual environments. Our team is OSHA 30 safety trained and certified document specialists.
Why Build Modular?
Our modular buildings use the same high-quality materials, meet the same international, state and local building codes, and are subject to the same inspections as conventional brick-and-mortar buildings, but the majority of the structure is completed off-site in our factory, transported to the prepared site, and assembled like building blocks.
Modular buildings from Affordable Structures can be completed 30% to 60% faster than conventional buildings, and at about 50% of the cost. The architectural designs are compatible with any environment and offer many options for materials, finishes and exterior trim.
They can be built to suit virtually any purpose, such as offices, classrooms, dormitories, bank buildings, medical/dental centers, retail stores, restaurants and cafes, warehouses, fire stations, religious centers, daycare facilities, and wide variety of other uses.
Hurricane Resistance
When a hurricane or tropical storm makes landfall or directly impacts a community along the Atlantic or Gulf coasts or the Caribbean, it can be a costly disaster.
While no current method of construction can promise to withstand the power of Mother Nature, modular construction has proven to be an excellent hurricane resistant construction choice.
After Hurricane Andrew in 1992, FEMA acknowledged modular construction for its sound workmanship in a report that stated, “relatively minimal structural damage was noted in modular housing developments.†Despite the 131-155mph winds in the Category 4 storm, FEMA reported that modular homes “performed much better than conventional residential framing.â€
Affordable Structures specializes in hurricane resistant construction and weather proofing of modular buildings specifically for hurricane winds and other common tropical weather.
Each of our modular construction projects is held to a high standard of quality during manufacturing and subjected to inspections at every step. These inspections far exceed those of traditionally constructed buildings and guarantees that each part of the modular building is the strongest it could be.
We encourage you to review a case study of the Category 5 hurricane rated steel warehouse building project we completed for Barrick Gold Corporation in Pueblo Viejo, Dominican Republic.
