Modular in the Le Rocher-Percé sector

A traditional job site ties up local trades for months; modular flips that logic. Most of the building is completed in a factory, often outside the Le Rocher-Percé sector, before being moved to the project's municipality. On site, only the foundation, assembly and connections remain — a short job-site footprint, welcome in the territory's smallest municipalities.

Procedures and regulations

Don't look for an "MRC permit": in the Le Rocher-Percé sector as everywhere in Quebec, the municipality where the lot sits receives the permit application and applies the zoning. The MRC's role plays out further upstream, through the land-use plan (schéma d'aménagement) that steers the territory's designations. The first concrete step: check with the target municipality what its regulations allow.

Modular builders serving the area

A modular project in the sector does not depend on a local contractor: the building is produced in a factory then moved by road, so most Quebec manufacturers accept deliveries anywhere in the province, including Gaspésie--Îles-de-la-Madeleine. Take the time to compare several offers and validate the RBQ licence.
