Shelter Industries Custom Modular Housing

Shelter was the right choice for this site-sensitive building project for Brant Villa Daycare Society in Vancouver, BC.  The Learning Tree Daycare project involved demolishing and removing an existing building and installing a new and larger building complex, while paying careful attention not to damage a fruit tree that was a landmark to the site.

The Shelter team had to adjust timber piles and lay new reinforced concrete foundations for the new building design, while working within the confines of a tight and small Vancouver lot.  Shelter provided all the site work and site services on this challenging turnkey project.

“We had confidence in Shelter Industries to complete the project to a high quality standard and on time,” says Bob Brandle and Harald Yurk of the Learning Tree Day Care.   “Shelter is a world-renowned modular building company, skilled in providing economical designs, with superior quality construction, all within reasonable time frames.”

The project also included a geothermal heating/cooling system and landscaping.  The playground equipment, benches and other items were all made of custom hand-carved British Columbia wood.  Special features of the project included peaked roofs, wood soffits, cork floors and hardiplank siding and trim.

Learning Tree Day Care project managers Bob Brandle and Harald Yurk add, “The final product is a first class 2,316 square foot modular complex, completed within budget (and at the lowest bid).  We can highly recommend Shelter Industries Inc. as a contractor for any similar project.”
