Prefab & modular design Chennai

Prefab and modular design for Chennai:
architect-designed, factory-built, assembled on your plot.

Modular construction in Chennai, designed by our architects and built in a partner factory, then assembled on your plot. A prefabricated house or steel frame house design makes sense when speed matters, when the structure below can only take a light load — like a rooftop room — or when the site is remote or temporary.

Rooftop additions

A rooftop room on your existing Chennai house.

Light steel adds far less load than an RCC floor, which makes it the usual way to add a room on an older house. A structural check of the existing building always comes first.

RT-01

Rooftop room on existing house Chennai

A bedroom, office or studio added on your terrace with minimal disruption below.
RT-02

Lightweight additional floor

A full upper floor in light steel where an RCC floor would be too heavy.
RT-03

LGSF terrace room

Factory-cut frame bolted together on the terrace in days, then insulated and finished.
RT-04

Prefab penthouse on old house

A light, well-insulated top floor that turns an old terrace into living space.

Coastal & cyclone detailing

Prefab houses for coastal Chennai.

Sea air corrodes steel and cyclones test every fixing — Chennai saw that with Cyclone Vardah in 2016. We detail prefab buildings for both.

CD-01

Corrosion-resistant steel frame

Galvanised or coated framing and fasteners for homes near the sea.
CD-02

Cyclone-resistant prefab

Frames anchored to the foundation and braced for cyclone winds.
CD-03

Roof sheet fixing

Closely spaced, sealed fixings so roof sheets stay down in high wind.
CD-04

Monsoon drainage

Gutters, downpipes and raised plinths that keep water away from the frame.
Farmhouses & weekend homes

Prefab farmhouses near Chennai.

Remote plots are where prefab helps most: fewer trips, less site labour, a faster finish. See our farmhouse and weekend home construction.
