AttitudeL in Toronto

My wife and I bought a bungalow three years ago. The size was okay when we bought it but soon enough we just realized that we need a much bigger house once we have more children. Apparently given the current housing price in Toronto, buying another single detached house is very hard. Therefore we decided to add another addition. Adding a second addition to the existing sixty years old house definitely made me skeptical. We contacted to lots of companies that can build a second addition, most of them either gave us a very vague maybe answer or a yes answer without any evidence supporting it. Modular however first send one person to do a feasibility study. What they did was they drilled some holes at the edge of the house to see what materials are used for your house's foundation and if it can support another addition. Please note that this study fee is none refundable. I noticed that some people are complaining about not getting a refund for this study because it shows their house cannot support a second addition. I mean, of course you are not getting a refund. You paid them to do a study for your house and they gave you an answer. Just like you go to a clinic to do a blood test and are you getting a refund when seeing you are not healthy? After the study is finished, we moved on to the quoting stage. Now that the whole project is finished, I can tell that the original quote price was not that much different from the total price we paid to Modular. Their quotes were very detail oriented. You can easily move some parts away from the quotes if you choose to do them with your own contractors. Once we have decided to go with Modular, we immediately moved onto the design stage. Rick the designer is very professional. We told him what we needed, he would do his best to accomplish all of our requests. He finished the drawing in a very professional and timely manner and we really appreciated that. Once the design drawing was finished, Modular took over the rest. Basically there were a lot of paper works to be done with the City and Modular did everything. The entire paper work process went really smooth but please give like a year for all preparations. We came to Modular at June 2016 and the project started at May 2017. Like Modular said, they build the second addition really really fast. Everyday you will see significant difference. There would be two managers on site taking care of everything you have. Modular will also try their best to protect the existing floor or repair them at them end if damage has to be made. Overall I have a very positive experience with Modular and I would definitely go with them for future projects.
