Modular in the Les Laurentides sector

Quebec's modular manufacturers ship their modules by road across the whole province: no factory needs to be established in the Les Laurentides sector to deliver a project there. The building takes shape in the plant while the lot is prepared; what remains is transport, setting on the foundation and the connections — feasible in any municipality of the territory.

Procedures and regulations

The regulations read from the top down: the Les Laurentides MRC's land-use plan (schéma d'aménagement) defines the territory's broad vocations, then municipal zoning by-laws spell out, zone by zone, what may be built and how. The permit itself is always requested from the municipality where the lot sits — check the applicable rules with it before moving forward.

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 Laurentides. Take the time to compare several offers and validate the RBQ licence.

Frequently asked questions

Who should I contact for a permit in the Les Laurentides sector?
The permit application is filed with the municipality, never with the MRC. The MRC instead frames the territory through its land-use plan; zoning, setbacks and permit issuance belong to each of the sector's municipalities.
Can a modular home be installed in a village of the Les Laurentides sector?
The municipality's population changes nothing about feasibility: as long as the road reaches the lot and the zoning permits the planned residential use, a modular project can happen there. The check to make remains local — with the municipality, before any commitment.
How do I choose a manufacturer for a project in the Les Laurentides sector?
Three reflexes: request several proposals, judge on the complete project cost rather than the building price alone, and confirm the manufacturer holds an RBQ licence in good standing. The distance between the factory and the Les Laurentides sector mostly affects the transport line — have it priced in the quote.
