Modular in the Les Sources sector

With about 15,153 residents spread across the whole territory, the Les Sources sector lacks the density of the major centres — and that is where factory fabrication earns its keep. The building arrives nearly finished; local site work is limited to the foundation, assembly and connections, whichever municipality you choose.

Procedures and regulations

Don't look for an "MRC permit": in the Les Sources 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 Estrie. Take the time to compare several offers and validate the RBQ licence.
