Modular bathrooms represent an exciting paradigm shift in construction, which is in keeping with Oldcastle s long standing tradition of innovation. We work across North America on a daily basis with countless architects, contractors and developers. As the largest and longest tenured manufacturer of component modular solutions in North America, Oldcastle is in a unique position to help guide you through the process of modular construction to achieve the benefits highlighted above. We invite you to contact us to discuss your next project. - The Oldcastle SurePods Team

Put an end to the parade of trades vying for space to work inside the bathroom. Use bathroom pods and eliminate 8 12 trades from working in a confined space that requires a high level of finish. Bathroom pods will help you minimize your project punch list, decrease waste, reduce material deliveries and keep the site cleaner. The construction manager has one supplier to coordinate with for the entire bathroom. SurePods improve logistical efficiency, and promote a simplified work environment.

7 7 advantage SAFETY Each hour pulled off-site and done in the factory at ground level virtually eliminates fatalities from falls and caught-in-betweens. Safety Removing bathroom construction from the site reduces workers compensation rates, decreases the risk of OHSA violations and has potential to reduce general liability insurance. Factories are not affected by dangers of poor weather conditions. Safety measures are easy to monitor and can be strictly imposed in a manufacturing facility. The bathrooms are constructed at ground level, reducing risks from working at heights. When all combined, factories are a safer place to build bathrooms.
