Approvals & Compliance
Most modular and prefab homes require a Building Approval (BA) before installation. Depending on the property's zoning, planning overlays, local council requirements, site conditions, and proposed use, a Development Approval (DA) may also be required.
Approval requirements vary between states, territories and local councils. The National Construction Code (NCC) establishes Australia's minimum construction standards, while planning authorities determine the applicable approval pathway for each site.
ProSpace provides comprehensive support throughout the approval process, including NCC-compliant documentation, structural engineering, NatHERS energy assessments where required, and coordination with licensed certifiers and planning consultants.
The National Construction Code is a performance-based code that sets minimum requirements for safety, health, amenity, accessibility, and sustainability. It is prepared by the Australian Building Codes Board on behalf of Commonwealth, state, and territory governments.
Yes. We provide documentation aligned to NCC requirements and can coordinate NatHERS assessments. Exact requirements depend on your jurisdiction, use case, climate zone, and site conditions.
Energy & Comfort
NatHERS is the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme. It provides a standardised approach to rating home energy performance, with requirements that vary by state, territory, and project timing.
We design around insulation, glazing performance, daylight, ventilation, and layout zoning. Site orientation and local climate influence the best configuration, so we help clients select suitable options before final specification.
Process & Timing
Typical on-site installation can be under a week, depending on site access, footings, services, crane access, and weather. We confirm a realistic timeline after reviewing your site context.
Yes. Display units are available for private viewing. Book a walkthrough to compare layouts, finishes, glazing, acoustic comfort, and fit-out details in person.
Send your state, suburb or region, intended use, preferred model, site access notes, timeline, and whether you need off-grid, solar, NDIS, or rental-focused options.
Models & Customisation
The one-bedroom model is efficient for couples and premium guest suites. The two-bedroom model suits families and friends travelling together. The two-storey model is strongest when the site has views or needs a more memorable villa-style experience.
Yes. We can customise layout, openings, selected finishes, and options to suit your site and brief. Modules can also be combined for larger areas depending on design, transport, and approvals.
Standard inclusions cover lighting, ventilation, and electrical outlets. Kitchens, bathrooms, comfort systems, solar, storage, and accessibility options depend on the model and selected specification.
We can tailor modules toward SDA design intent and coordinate certification partners depending on project requirements, location, and final approval pathway.
