COREHAUS DELIVER FIRST LIGHT STEEL FRAME MODULAR HOMES CoreHaus light steel framed modular homes manufactured in their Murton-based factory have been delivered to regional housebuilders Homes by Carlton at the Thorpe Paddocks site in Tees Valley. Fully certified to BS EN 1090-4:2018 the light steel frame systems are backed by residential warranty provider – SCI/NHBC Stage 1 for up to 10 storey construction. The successful delivery of the first four houses is a significant achievement for the company who only opened the doors to its factory in early 2021. The installation of the three-bedroom homes forms part of an ambitious five-year plan by CoreHaus to deliver around 1,000 modular homes per year. As the national housing agency Homes England continues to increase its focus on the delivery of local authority housing schemes, the use of modern methods of construction enables providers to create high-quality homes built faster, with engineered precision and less waste and energy use than alternative methods.
CoreHaus Managing Director Scott Bibby said: “What has been achieved since then has been nothing short of amazing. From fit-out and completion of the first factory-built home through to the completion of houses on site at Thorpe Thewles. This project has allowed us to demonstrate the flexibility of our product by matching traditional aesthetics and finishes on these four homes while still offering a high level of pre-manufactured value.” Talking about the project so far, Simon Walker, Managing Director of Homes by Carlton, said:

"We are delighted with the final CoreHaus product. They represent the affordable homes on our site and have been pre-sold to Believe Housing as rent-to-buy properties. We are experiencing a skills shortage across the construction and house building sector. Modern methods of construction will be part of the mix in the future. We are looking forward to working with CoreHaus on further projects, delivering affordable housing on our sites.’ Image: CoreHaus
