A home that is 100% constructed in our factory, transported and installed on your land.
A KITUR module consists of a hot dipped galvanized steel chassis with a cement floor, walls and roof of Structural Insulated Panels (sandwich panel). The unique design of our chassis, prevents the house from having direct contact with the ground which protects from moisture entering the house as well as seismic activity. Modules are used to create almost any configuration of spaces and can be made at any size (within our maximum dimensions) to suit your site and design.
The maximum size of a module is 13,5m x 4m. This size maximum is not a limitation of our technology , but the maximum size that can be transported on the road.
Yes you can! The projects on our website will give you some examples of the configurations available for modular homes with different accommodation needs but they are not a range you need to choose from. We know that each of our clients has their own requirements for housing needs, and that this requires complete flexibility in design.

Typically land preparation involves leveling and compacting the land as well as preparing infrastructures such as electricity, water and sewage. In the case of our fixed modular homes ,this process also entails the pouring of a cement foundation. As far as cost, it is totally dependent on the land. KITUR will do a site survey for every client as part of the process of providing you with your home. As a result of the site survey, we can provide you with a proposal for all of the above services.
