The advantages in constructing bathrooms in an off-site situation are significant when compared with the traditional method of building numerous bathrooms within a multi level building of apartments or hotel. These advantages could be summarised as follows;

  • Significant time saving in the completion of any multi level building of up to 15-20%. 
  • Financial saving of approx. 3% - 3.5% of the total development costs.
  • Greater control and the ability to achieve better quality of finish in a factory environment.
  • Less exposure to damage of finished work by other trades, for example, the replacement of a percentage of baths that become damaged as a result of months of exposure whilst a building is under construction.
  • Often on-site construction defects take months to correct after completion of a multi level building. This is substantially eliminated in an off-site manufacturing environment.
  • Off-site manufacturing method eliminates the need to lift fittings, faucets, tiles, building materials etc. and store and secure these in many separate lifts to various floors.  
  • Reduces unnecessary and unproductive activities such as tradesmen accessing their work place by lift every day on multiple occasions -  all these trips and activities add significant time and cost to the end product. The off-site manufacturing method eliminates much of these excesses.
  • Eliminate the risk of theft of high priced fittings such as light fittings, faucets, tiles etc
  • Estimated time saving on the construction of a building of  a multi level Apartment Building with 150 bathrooms and a construction cost of say $40 million would be in the order of 3.6 months*
  • The estimated cost saving on the development would be in the order of $1.4 million*

* Confirmation of these savings can be verified by consultants and builders with reference to specific projects.
