Welcome to Ready Nest

Customisation Options

One size doesn’t fit all – and that’s why Ready Nest offers extensive customisation options for all our portable homes. We believe your container home should reflect your lifestyle, preferences, and requirements. When you purchase with us, you’re not just getting a cookie-cutter product; you’re getting a flexible design that you can tailor to be truly your own. Below are some of the ways you can customise your 20ft, 30ft, or 40ft modular home (please note: optional upgrades will incur additional costs, which we’ll clearly outline in your quote):

    • Interior Finishes: Personalize the look and feel of your home’s interior. Choose from various flooring options (hard-wearing vinyl planks, laminate timber floors, or cozy carpeting in bedrooms). Select your wall colors or panel finishes to match your style – whether you prefer bright and airy whites or a bold feature wall. We also offer upgrades like timber wall paneling or modern composite materials for a premium touch.
    • Kitchen Upgrades: Turn your kitchenette into a chef’s kitchen! We can install full-size appliances (such as an oven, stovetop, or dishwasher) in larger units, or upscale the benchtops to stone or solid timber for durability and luxury appeal. You might add extra cabinets for more storage, a tiled backsplash for easy cleaning, or even a pull-out pantry. Our custom kitchens ensure you don’t miss out on cooking conveniences, even in a compact home.
    • Bathroom & Laundry: While every Ready Nest home comes with a functional bathroom, you have options to elevate it further. Upgrade to floor-to-ceiling tiling for a sleek look, or add safety features like additional grab bars (useful for elder-friendly designs). You could choose a rainfall showerhead, a glass shower screen instead of a curtain, or a vanity with more storage. In 30ft and 40ft models, we can include an internal laundry closet – complete with washer, dryer, and laundry tub – or even a second bathroom if the layout allows.
    • Accessibility Features: We’re committed to making our homes comfortable for everyone. If you or your loved ones have mobility needs, we can customize your unit for accessibility. Options include wider doorways, low-threshold (step-free) entries, wheelchair ramps, and modified kitchen/bathroom layouts for easier use. We can install lever-style door handles, lower light switches, and other adaptive features. For clients looking into SDA-compliant homes, we can integrate many High Physical Support features as mentioned on our 40ft page – such as roll-in showers, structural reinforcements for hoists, and smart home systems. These modifications ensure your modular home is not just accessible, but truly empowering for occupants with disabilities.
  • Climate & Energy: Customize how your home handles the elements. We offer upgrades like higher-rated insulation and double-glazed windows for extreme climates. You can opt for split-system air conditioners/heat pumps in additional rooms for zoned climate control. Want to go green or off-grid? Ask about our solar power packages – we can equip your container home with rooftop solar panels, battery storage, and even a rainwater harvesting tank to reduce reliance on mains utilities. These eco-friendly upgrades not only shrink your carbon footprint but can save you money in the long run.
  • Exterior & Structural: The outside of your portable home can be customised too. Many clients add external cladding (e.g. wood siding or modern composite panels) to give the container a stylish facade that blends with surroundings. We can also attach decking or a pergola to create outdoor entertaining space once the unit is on site. If you need an extended roof or covered entry, we’ll design and install it. For those planning to relocate frequently, we can add extra lifting lugs or protective features to help with transport. Structurally, if you want to join multiple units together side-by-side or stack them, we can prepare the units with the required openings and reinforcements – creating a larger modular complex (this is popular for expanding office setups or multi-unit accommodations).

How Customisation Works

During the design consultation, we’ll discuss which upgrades or changes you’re interested in. Our design team can often show you examples or diagrams of past custom work to help you decide. Once you finalize your wish list, we’ll provide an updated quote and timeline. Minor tweaks might add just a few days to the build, while major alterations (like significant layout changes or multiple high-end upgrades) could extend production by a few weeks. Rest assured, every custom feature is installed by qualified professionals and inspected to meet our quality standards. We love seeing a client’s personal touch come to life in our homes!

At Ready Nest, customisation is all about giving you choice. Whether it’s making your home more luxurious, more accessible, or better tailored to its purpose, we’re here to make it happen. Get in touch with us to discuss the possibilities – our team will happily help you craft a modular home that ticks all your boxes.

No matter which size you choose, you’ll enjoy a thoughtfully designed interior, quality finishes, and the peace of mind that comes with Ready Nest’ craftsmanship. Ready to get started? Contact us today for a free quote and let’s make your modular home dreams a reality!
