Editorial Review | Moduline International is producing high quality homes from Canada. Our mystery shopper was not impressed with their basic website but we think that is because Moduline is too busy working on their homes. They focus more on manufactured mobile homes and these are some of the better manufactured homes we have come across. They are very well insulated and constructed. The builders we spoke with were happy with Moduline and gave their homes a thumbs up and we agree. This is a good option for entry level and mid range home buyers looking for a good value. |

Personal Reviews of Moduline International
Cm from BC
Moduline eager to fix warranty issues but they take forever. The dealer in BC Eaglehomes don't care about the quality or what they are giving you. They show you their show homes you order , pay then they deliver terrible quality. My poor friend has had nothing but broken items repeatedly in the home. It keeps costing her to fix. Court battles continue because she's given all her investments into this house! I would not recommend these companies! Unfortunately the workmanship has declined over the years! They don't follow inspection reports or building standards and take short cuts! Live and learn
Chuck from United States
I've been in my Moduline home now for 15 years and have had zero problems. I have replaced the refrigerator after 14 years but no problems at all with build or structure. The insulation factor built into my home is fantastic and using propane for heat my supplier is amazed I do not have my tank topped off more than twice a year with many of the winters coming in with 20 to 30 below.
Dale T from British Columbia
I have lived in my 1989 Moduline Dartmouth (Model #14345) for 11 years now, have had no major issues. The only thing that could be better is a different roof. The metal roof is noisy during windy and rainy weather.
Toni G from Yukon
I do not even want to give them 1 star!!!! Total piece of crap from top to bottom! DO NOT BUY THESE!!!!!!!
David from Seattle
I have a 1986 Dartmouth double and it has been excellent. Only weathering issue has been around windows, affordably fixable. Overall, very pleased.
Ig Hanckhs from Vancouver Island
Owners, seniors who tread softly and are away 6 months of the year, are hesitant to recommend. A mix of good and poor quality in new unit from Nanaimo. Workmanship lacking. Unit was full of gyproc dust when we moved in even though the company said it would be cleaned up. Skylight installed improperly at Penticton factory leading to a major leak. Toilets & bathroom sinks needed fixing in 1st year. Installation of moulding was completed by Nanaimo after moulding lay on carpet for 1 year. Gaps where mouldings join. Leaking around kitchen sink in year 2. Blinds on windows stick. Recommend you buy the shell but get a professional to complete it, including adding extra lighting.
D. Jarvis from Vancouver Island
They must not use a level or a square when they build these dumps. The large main window is out of plumb, the drywall sticks out past the door and window frames which makes adding quality trim very difficult. I need many tubes of filler to make it look half decent. The building quality is just not there. I do not think they use journeymen to do the work. You could probably have a real house built for the same cost by a genuine home builder. DJ
Daniel Knudson from Enderby, BC
2 weeks after initial delivery a plumbing leak occurred in the wall behind the washing machine. The local dealer was informed of this and it was repaired. As this unit is fairly sealed from top to bottom I was concerned about moisture trapped in the insulation under the unit. A salesperson was dispatched to check this out and after his inspection was completed he reported no moisture. However the area was inundated with water so a second crew was dispatched to rectify the situation. I now have another water eak which Moduline says is out of warranty as it is more than one year old. This leak is in another location so I am concerned with quality of either plumbing parts or workmanship on these units. Check the Moduline website and the initial promises re customer satisfaction. A large gap between promises and delivery. If they would make good on defects I might recommend purchase but at this point I cannot.
terry larson from ok falls
good quality build with excelent after sales service I would defently buy another one
Ray P from Oregon
If you will properly vent these homes from inside (So they can breathe)and do the bathroom vents properly so as to extract moisture--you wont have the mold
Edwin Pizzey from Alberta
Terrible investment, poor quality, horrible service, warranty issues not finished after 2years, my opinion don't buy a Moduline home.My e-mail is lynx1@telusplanet.net if you want to see pictures of shody workmannship I would be happy to send them to anyone thinking of purchasing one of these shacks.
bob k from British Columbia
We've lived in our new Moduline home for 4 years now, and are very happy with it. There have been a couple of minor things come up, seal around windows, etc., and they have been very good about taking care of them for us. The basic finishing is low end, so I would definitely upgrade that when ordering. I would buy another Moduline home in the future.
doug spillane from victoriaBC
