  1. Ready-to-finish : for flexible takeover
  2. Site manager : for moderate assistance
  3. Master-at-home : for total autonomy

To find out if the purchase option is available in your area, contact our team!

Ready-to-finish

If you have a clear idea of the desired result, but little time to chieve it, the Ready-to-finish purchasing option is the one for you.

This is the closest you can get to a turnkey home, except that you can be involved in every step of the construction project.

As for manual work, you will mainly be involved in tasks that are essentially more creative and personal. You will have the chance to make your living environment your own work and your choices regarding paint, flooring, cabinets, and so on.

Benefits

  • Our incredibly fast timeline
  • Your influence at the final stage of decoration
  • A substantial saving of time and energy

The Batitech team assembles the structure until it is completely waterproof, ensuring the efficient execution of each step. In just a few weeks, everything is in place so you can finish the house as you like.

To consider

  • With this option, you invest money to save time.
  • The interior finish is at your discretion. 
  • You must provide the land and foundations for our team to erect the structure.

Since most of the logistics of the work are the responsibility of the expert Batitech team, this is the most expensive option. However, it assures you of exceptional construction quality and total peace of mind.

Even considering the additional investment to entrust the construction to our team, this formula remains more accessible than the purchase of a conventional new house.

Site manager

The Site Manager purchase option requires your participation, without the completion depending entirely on you. If you want to participate in the work to save a little money while counting on us to save time, this is the ideal compromise.

The goal with this option is to offer you the flexibility you need so that the entire project does not rest entirely on your shoulders.

Your part of the work concerns the following elements, supplied and delivered by Batitech: doors, handles, moldings and woodwork, gypsum and stairs. Depending on your needs, you can involve the professionals of your choice to carry out the final work or take charge of complete management.

Benefits

  • Save money by undertaking certain tasks yourself
  • Delegation of major works to the expert Batitech team
  • Full customization of interior design and exterior finishes

By the time you get involved, the structure will already be assembled, complete with its roof, its walls, the gallery and the patio if you want.

To consider

  • You are responsible for a part of the work (determined at the signature of the contract).
  • You take care of the finishing.
  • You must provide the land and foundations before the panels are delivered.
  • You manage communications with the electrician, plumber, subcontractors (ventilation, plaster, paint, cabinets, and flooring) and other professionals involved.

With the Site Manager option, our team assists you in the construction of the house. ou are the boss!

If you already have experience in construction or renovation, want to get involved in the work and are looking to save some money, this is the perfect option for you.

Master at home

The Master at home purchase option puts you at the center of the action. It allows you to save big on the purchase of the house by saving on labor. We deliver the panels and you assemble them.

But be careful: being in charge does not mean moving forward alone!

You can handle a hammer and certainly carry out each mission with thyling colors, but Batitech is always available to assist you. Whether for a question, advice or a request for assistance, you can always rely on us.

Enjoy your independence while having the assurance that we are always available to answer your questions!

Benefits

  • Unbeatable savings on home purchasing
  • Absolute autonomy on the construction site
  • Choice of partners and subcontractors

The Master at home option gives you almost total control over the job site. You are free to establish deadlines with your contractors and subcontractors. You will have the opportunity to communicate with the professionals of your choice for plumbing, electricity and ventilation.

To consider

  • Demand for knowledge and experience in construction
  • Requires a lot of time to manage the site and coordinate the work, partners and subcontractors
  • Requires comparing bids from partners and subcontractors

If you don’t already have industry contacts, the responsibility of finding professionals to do business with can be a daunting challenge. You will need to find the reliable services of several certified specialists for plumbing, electricity, ventilation system and finishing.

The options may not be recommended if you have no experience. The expense of hiring contractors will quickly outweigh the savings on the initial purchase.

However, it is the ideal option for passionate builders who want to build their home independently and efficiently, at a good price.

What questions should we ask ourselves before going on self-construction?

Before choosing one of the options, you should ask yourself 3 simple questions:

  • Do you have time?
  • Do you have the knowledge?
  • Do you have the energy?

Do you have time?

Between the daily routine, work and family life, including this precious rest that we sometimes forget, will you really have time to build your nouse?

Most major work is done in advance, at the factory. But depending on the purchase option chosen, you will need to allow time in the scehdule! The key to your success lies in a realistic organization and a respected roadmap.

Because even if you have experience, managing communications with professionals, assembling panels, inspecting the structure and checking the quality of each stage of the project takes time.

Do you have the knowledge?

We make the process of building a house more accessible for as many people as possible. But our products are still aimed at DIY enthusiasts who have some experience in the construction field.

This knowledge related to the building field will be very useful to you when we provide you with the panels and detailed documentation to assemble the house. You must be able to understand construction plans and use the hammer to assemble the different components of the structure.

If you have neither the experience nor the comfort required to use tools, the Ready-toFinish option is probably the best option for your project.

Do you have the energy?

It’s a fact: prefabricated panels make assembling a home easier than ever.

That being said, building your own house is not an easy job, no matter the method!

Between daily responsibilities, family life, hobbies and projects, do you still have energy to invest in building a house? Do certain tasks seem unachievable to you?

Find the option that suits you with Batitech

Our construction options give a lot of flexibility in building your home. To choose the best option, simply talk to our team about your project.

Talking with our advisors is the safest way to determine which option is best for you to build your home. You will quickly be able to determine the level of involvement that is most realistic for you. We will help you fully understand the time and money savings associated with each construction option.

Prefabricated house: what are the main advantages?

The manufactured home- or factory prefabricated home – is one of the most reliable and affordable options on the residential construction market. It allows you to save a lot on the costs of new construction, in addition to offering a level of reliability that is difficult to obtain on a conventional construction site.

Since its beginnings, Batitech has been refining its construction methods. From year to year, our company takes up the challenge of innovating in the construction of prefabricated houses, which allows our customers to count on an accessible and reliable solution to build their new home.

Are you thinking of buying a kit house? In this article, you will find a list of the many advantages offered by Batitech houses to save time and money, to reduce the environmental impact of your construction site and to simplify access to property.

What is the difference between a prefabricated kit house and a conventional house?

Between a 100% site-built home and a fully assembled home in a warehouse, our prefab panel home package offers the best of both worlds.

When we compare construction methods, we realize that this type of house has many advantages for buyers, in addition to simplifying the assembly and transport of materials.

Instead of handling raw materials and operating heavy machinery in the open to build your home, Batitech manufactures the panels (insulated walls, windows, interior divisions and pre-assembled floors) in a highly controlled environment.

How can a prefabricated house make construction more reliable?

The main idea is to combine efficiency with sustainability. And to have a durable structure, it is essential to manufacture each part in the best conditions ;

  • far from the whims of nature;
  • in a place that is not exposed to showers and humidity;
  • protected from sudde drops or increases in temperature which can damage, deform or weaken materials;
  • out of reach of parasites and insects which can take advantage of long exposures outdoors to infiltrate the materials.

These are the same materials that should ultimately provide you with safety and comfort. By reducing exposure time and optimizing assembly time once the panels arrive on site, you greatly maximize the reliability of each element of the structure.

This is why we took the route of prefabricated panels. By ensuring better control over the manufacturing of the elements of the house structure, we can guarantee better assembly quality and a final result worthy of the best-built conventional houses.

All the benefits of a custom structure, with the superior quality of a factory prefabricated building

Meticulously designed in the best conditions of the Batitech factory and delivered for assembly on your site, the wall sections are already equipped with windows and insulation with absolute waterproofing.

Once the panels are delivered, the walls, floors and roof trusses are then joined according to the house plan that you have personalized from the models available in our catalog.

Personalization therefore never comes at the expense of quality. If you would like to modify one of our plans, oue team can assist you in creating a plan that contains as many rooms, storage spaces and floors as you wish. With our advisors, you can even create your own custom home.

And our customization options aren’t just limited to homes. Because if Batitech succeeds in the rapid delivery of residential structures, our commercial component allows us to create custom made buildings just as efficiently :

  • Office buildings
  • Hotels
  • Rental properties
  • Modular classes
  • Multi-dwellings
  • Commercial buidlings

Thanks to our efficient, highly versatile precess that is as environmentally friendly as it is economical, Batitech is an uncompromising shortcut to your dream home or custom-designed commercial building.

Buying a kit house from Batitech means buying quality above all else

Less expensive and quickly, our kit houses unequivocally remain a high-quality option, as stable as they are affordable.

By optimizing your home’s factory manufacturing methods, we reduce lead times without sacrificing the quality of the final product.

Prefabricated panels that are strong and easy to assemble

It’s hard to find anything stronger than our panels! Our workers assemble the different elements of the structure of your house directly at the factory. Ous manufacturing method optimizes working time so that we can use higher quality materials without increasing construction costs.

To learn more about all facets of our components, from the vapor barrier to the joists, vist our explanatory page on kit houses.

Houses made here, four our climate

In winter, building a house on a construction site is not easy. Between storms, melting snow that causes water accumulation and contractors who have to work in less than optimal conditions, the risk of problems quickly accumulates.

With Batitech, your house can be assembled quickly in the factory, protected from the caprice of the climate and hostile temperatures. Once the panels arrive on site, assembly can be carried out without delay, to the great pleasure of the people who will have to take care of them!

Methods that innovate, year after year

The immense technical and technological advances of recent years – both across the industry and within our company – make kit homes a more than sensible choice.

For us, the construction of manufactured homes represents a future that will allow buyers to access property more easily, while respecting their budget, while opening up a world of possibilities.

Less risk for new buyers

It goes without saying that by purchasing a brand new house, never inhabited before, you do not have the worries that come with purchasing a used house. You know that the place does not require any renovation, that the foundation is in optimal condition and, above all, that you will not have to undergo the real estate epic that can lead to tough negotiations, offers with or without conditions, one-upmanship…

Knowing that buying a new house immediately involves less risk, a kit house project offers even more transparency. You will have peace of mind from the first day.

Reduced cost of materials and labor

Mass production means economy of scale! You benefit directly from the savings we make by reducing material waste and optimizing manufacturing methods.

Thanks to our well-established design phase, you are sure of no surprise costs from us once the quote is accepted.

In the long term, such well-designed panels, which can count on quality materials, will also reduce your heating bill. A Batitech kit house is an investment that pays off upon signing and the savings last!

For more information on the price of manufactured homes, see the article below. https://batitech.ca/en/how-much-costs-a-prefab-house-2/ 

Reduction of waste and ecological impact

At first glance, building a kit house is short-lived, which minimizes the fuel required. Thanks to the precise calculations of Batitech plans, a quarter of potential waste is eliminated and only essential materials are moved. That means fewer trucks on the roads. During assembly, you can place your house on a concrete slab, called “monolithic”, “floating” or “on the ground”.

Standardized manufacturing quality

The dimensions of a kit house can vary enormously. However, ous sustainability standards remain unchanged, regardless of the allocated budget. 

It is thanks to rigorous planning and monitoring of the production line by our vigilant experts thats we ensure such consistency over such a large turnover.

First step: find your land

If you have any questions when searching for your land, do not hesitate to contact us to find out the criteria for building a Batitech project.

Most people first find their location, then choose their house model based on the parameters requested by the municipality.

Several factors must be considered to determine what the plot of land can accomodate: the difference in height, ease of access, town planning regulations, etc. Some clients then do the opposite and choose the location based on the desired house.

As soon as you have signed the acquisition of the land and received the specifications requested by the municipality concerning the land and what can be built there, you are ready to take the steps with our friendly team.

It is after this first step that we can complete the construction of your house together in just a few months.

The importance of choosing a trusted manufacturer

Buying a house can be scary, there’s no doubt about it! It is a project that involves so many unknown factors, hence the importance of relying on specialists who will take the time it takes to support you.

With us, the construction of your future home does not leave you in the lurch: you maintain control over the operations. You will make the decisions, and our team will help you achieve in no time a finished product exactly to your liking.

Batitech has completed more than 1000 houses and more than 200 commercial projects. We are proud to continually enhance the reputation of manufactured homes in Quebec and to delight our customers with our exemplary practices.

Our prefabricated panel system allows you to easily and independently assemble the structure of your self-built house.

We call this attractive perspective “self-construction”.  With a reasonable amount of time and some handy work, building your own house is within your reach ! Both from an economic point of a view and from an organizational point of view, building your house is much more accessible than you think.

With Batitech models, you can simplify the construction of your dream house.

How much does a factory prefabricated house cost in Quebec?

It is certain that a manufactured home is an opportunity to save money, but up to what point ?

To give you an idea, the average cost of our single-family homes is around $ 150 000 with the Master at Home option, ranging from the charming Canadian-style model with three bedrooms starting at $ 100 000, up to the impressive 2740 square foot urban style model starting at $ 350 000.

The beauty of a manufactured home is that you know exactly how much to expect from Batitech. No suprises, and no extension. We will sit down with you to establish the exact figure. We see nothing approximate and the budget is respected, at all costs.

Some items are not included with our manufactured homes are excavation, foundation, backfill, cabinets, flooring, plaster, paint and light fixtures.

There are other fees to be expected when buying a manufactured home that comes from external factors : notary fees, land acquisition and welcome tax, city permit, soil and water tests, various connections, finishes, taxes. We will be happy to advise you on this matter.

What is a manufactured home ?

It’s a house made up of factory prefabricated panels, ready to assemble by yourself or with the help of a builder. These panels are manufactured using an extremly rapid, accessible and efficient method which reduces the environmental impact and costs normally generated by construction of this scale on a conventional site.

What makes the price of a factory-built home vary ?

Several options influence the final cost, giving you the freedom to choose where to invest, where to save, according to your budget and schedule.

You simply need to choose from Batitech the model that suits you best and your level of involvement for the assembly.

To choose the ideal model that will meet your needs, you will need to take into account : style, size, number of floors, bedrooms, bathrooms, with or without a garage, specifications of the municipality in relation to the land, and so on. Ouf catalog contains a wide variety of models that you can even customize.

As for how involved you are in assembly, the more you do, the more you save !

Would you prefer to receive a helping hand ? You are free to entrust us with part of the worf and take care of the rest. You can also delegate the majority of the tasks to our team, which has an AA rating from the Quebec Residential Construction Guarantee.

For more information on the three purchasing options that influence the cost of our manufactured homes, consult this detailed sheet.

How long does a manufactured home last ?

A prefabricated building is as durable as a traditional building. Factory manufactoring and numerous quality controls result in a more durable building, manufactured sheltered from bad weather ina  dry place.

By following a short list of preventative and corrective maintenance tasks over decades, its life expectancy can be extended before requiring significant structural work.

Since in our time the quality standards of buildings are identical, regardless of the technique used, our panel constructions are as solid as traditional constructions. What’s more, our team ensures that the transport of the house structure is safe and that the panels arrive at their destination in perfect condition.

Duration of construction

How long does it take to install a manufactured home ?

We often hear about the complications that can arise during the development of a typical residence, but the manufactured home is the exception !

Depending on the purchase option chosen, Batitech can complete your project in just a few weeks. In some contexts, the structure can even ben erected in a single day. Nothing to do with industry standards, where it is not uncommon to be faced with the delays of several months, or even a full year.

Additionally, the machined and accelerated construction of our kit comes with a guarantee of total safety and durability.

We remove any uncertainy from the equation with our remarkably precise cut panels. They leave the warehouse already equipped with windows and insulation.

This faster assembly represents a significant saving in labor, giving you more time for the inspiring part ! You can devote yourself to the finishing, decoration, layout and the thousand details that will transform your house into a real home !
