Modular in the La Haute-Yamaska sector

With some 98,146 residents, the La Haute-Yamaska sector ranks among the most populous territories covered by our sector pages. Modular answers the same needs here as anywhere: produce the building in a factory, away from job-site hazards, then assemble it on a permanent foundation in the project's municipality.

Procedures and regulations

Two levels govern construction on this territory. The La Haute-Yamaska MRC adopts the regional land-use plan (schéma d'aménagement), which sets broad land designations across the sector; each municipality, for its part, issues building permits and applies its own zoning by-law. Before buying land or signing with a manufacturer, check with the municipality concerned what the target zone allows.

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.
