Residential Modular Homes
Saltair designs and builds custom modular homes across Australia. We manage the whole process in-house - design, approvals, manufacture, delivery and installation - so you get a home built to the same standard as traditional construction, in a fraction of the time. With more than 12 years of experience and around 150 projects delivered, we bring certainty to a process that is too often full of surprises. From your first conversation to the day you move in, you deal with one accountable team.
A smarter way to build your home
Modular is a method, not a style. Your home is built inside our factory while site works happen in parallel, then delivered and installed to your block. That means fewer weather delays, far less waste, and a fixed programme you can actually plan your life around. Because the old way no longer works - too many variables, too many surprises - modular gives you clarity, control and confidence in the outcome. The result is a prefab home that looks and performs like any architect-designed build, without the uncertainty of conventional construction.
Designs for every block, from compact to acreage
Our range covers single and double-storey homes, duplexes, townhouses and acreage home designs, each adaptable to your site, orientation and budget. Whether you are building on a tight urban lot or a rural property, we tailor the layout, finishes and inclusions to suit how you live. Every modular home is engineered and BCA-compliant, manufactured under controlled factory conditions, and finished to a quality standard we are happy to put our name to. You get the freedom of a custom home with the precision of a production line.
From first design to final handover, all in-house
Because we control design, manufacturing and delivery under one roof, there is a single point of accountability from start to finish. There is no finger-pointing between trades and no gap where things fall through - all in-house, all in control. As a CommBank-assessed manufacturer, we can also help unlock better finance conditions for your build. Speak with our team to request the full design range and a clear, itemised price guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a modular home? A modular home is built in sections, called modules, inside a factory, then transported and installed on your site. It is designed and built to the same National Construction Code standards as a traditional home, exceeding it in durability. The difference is the method, not the quality. Modular is a method, not a style.
The cost depends on size, design, finishes and your site conditions, so every home is quoted individually rather than off a fixed list. What modular gives you is cost certainty - a fixed-price contract and far fewer site surprises along the way. Contact us for a current price guide and a quote for your design.
They can be, mainly through a shorter build time, less material waste and fewer weather delays. Often the bigger saving is certainty, a fixed program and fixed price, rather than a dramatically lower headline figure. We provide transparent pricing and inclusions so you can compare like for like.
A well-built modular home lasts as long as a traditional home - many decades. Ours are engineered and BCA-compliant, built from the same materials as site-built homes but under controlled factory conditions, which improves consistency and finish quality.
Built to code and well maintained, a modular home holds its value like any quality home. Because it is delivered faster, you also start living in the home, or earning from the property, sooner than a conventional build would allow.
Yes - and Saltair makes it easier than most. Modular homes can be financed, though the progress-payment structure can differ from a standard build. We are one of only a handful of CommBank Assessed Manufacturers under their prefab home lending program, which means buyers can access up to 80% of the build contract price while the home is being built off-site, instead of waiting until it is installed. That makes modular finance easier than ever before, talk to us and your lender early.
In most cases yes, subject to your block, zoning and council approval. Our team assesses your site early and manages council requirements, engineering and delivery as part of our turnkey service, so you know where you stand from the start.
Yes. We tailor the layout, finishes and inclusions to your site and lifestyle, from compact homes through to acreage designs. You get the freedom of a custom home with the precision and certainty of factory manufacturing. We also have standard designs which can be fully customised as well as the ability to modularise any existing plans in-house.
Your home is manufactured in modules in our factory while site works happen in parallel. The finished modules are then delivered, craned into place and connected on your prepared foundations. Because the disruptive work happens off-site, modular is faster, cleaner and less weather-dependent than building on site.
Yes. They are engineered to the same standards as site-built homes and must be robust enough to withstand transport and craning and adverse weather conditions (area-dependent) which means solid, well-built construction. They are properly insulated and finished to a high standard, inside and out.
