About HABITAT28

Habitat28 manufactures factory-built modular homes in Canada, including additional dwelling units, garden suites and laneway suites. Units can stand alone, stack or join several modules together, and models range from compact units of about 516 square feet up. The homes are CSA certified and described as combining smart home features, energy efficiency and high-end quality. Buyers confirm their property meets the requirements for the unit they want, and the company's consultants help move the building permit process along so the unit is installed and connected to the location. The homeowner's independent architect starts the permit application with the municipality, and an installer coordinates the connection. Pricing lists delivery and craning and city fees as extra costs. A builder's warranty is part of the standard package. Rated 4.4 from 37 Google reviews, 30 of them five stars and 4 one star.
