ModuLoft: From Office to Home — Faster
From Office
to Home
Faster
Transform vacant offices into livable residential spaces with our modular flooring kits and AI configurator—fast, compliant, and cost-efficient for
Canadian real estate.
Engineered Raised-Floor System
Adjustable, service-ready, acoustically damped platform for office-to-residential retrofits.
Built for conversion work, the ModuLoft floor assembles over the existing slab using galvanized steel bases with threaded posts, a height-adjustment sleeve with bracing struts, and 1×1 ft (300×300 mm) composite panels with a bonded acoustic layer and low-noise fasteners. The subfloor cavity (≈120–250 mm) provides precise leveling and clean routes for plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, yielding a rigid, squeak-free surface that installs quickly and meets Canadian code requirements.

Bringing vacant offices back to life
ModuLoft pairs modular raised-floor panels—featuring integrated channels for plumbing and electrical plus acoustic insulation—with an AI planning platform. Upload a floor plan and the system proposes apartment layouts, auto-routes services, and generates precise takeoffs, CAD/DXF exports, schedules, and budgets. Prefabricated kits are finalized in Toronto, reduce on-site trades and noise, and meet NBCC/CSA requirements. The result: shorter build cycles, fewer change orders, and easier qualification for municipal/CMHC incentives—giving developers, architects, and contractors a clear path from feasibility to procurement.
Why Developers
Choose ModuLoft
Speed & Cost Savings
In Canadian construction, labor is the most expensive factor. Every additional month of work dramatically increases project budgets. ModuLoft reduces installation time by 30–50%, allowing developers to complete conversions faster, reduce labor costs, and bring units to market sooner.
Compact, Versatile Design
Our panels are engineered to be low in height, saving valuable ceiling space while integrating plumbing, electrical conduits, and insulation in one modular solution. This versatility simplifies planning and reduces coordination between multiple trades.
Silent, Comfortable Living
Unlike traditional raised flooring systems, ModuLoft panels are designed with sound insulation in mind. This ensures quiet environments that meet the expectations of today’s urban residents. Comfort is not an afterthought — it’s built in.
Sustainable & Compliant
By adapting existing office infrastructure rather than building new, ModuLoft supports Canada’s sustainability goals. The system is fully aligned with Canadian building codes, ensuring every project meets regulatory requirements without delays.
Scalable for Any Project
Whether you’re converting a single floor or an entire high-rise, ModuLoft’s modular system adapts to projects of any scale. Developers can plan, scale, and replicate conversions across multiple properties with confidence.
AI-Powered Planning
Our web platform allows developers to upload architectural plans and instantly calculate the exact number of panels needed, generate layouts, and prepare cost estimates. This eliminates guesswork and accelerates project approvals.
AI Planning Platform
Upload • Calculate • Plan • Order
Upload a PDF/DWG/image of your floor. The platform reads the drawing, traces walls/doors/windows, and asks you to confirm fixed elements (shafts, stairs, elevators, corridors). Choose the target unit count and room mix; the engine proposes partitions and corridors, places kitchens/baths on optimal stacks, and auto-routes water, HVAC, gas, and electrical. Drag walls or change the unit mix at any time—quantities, routing, and costs recalc instantly.
What you get—within minutes:
-
Code-aligned layouts for Canadian residential conversions
-
Panel schedules and utilities takeoffs (per unit and per floor)
-
Project-specific budgets and lead-time estimates
-
One-click exports: CAD/DXF, materials/order sheets
-
Procurement integration to place orders and track status

ModuLoft AI planing Platform Workflow
Getting started is fast and clear.
Upload a plan, confirm a few basics, and the platform guides you step-by-step from floor layout to takeoffs and ordering. No special software, no training curve—results appear in minutes and update instantly as you edit.
01
Import & Recognition
Upload any common format; the system redrafts the plan and asks you to confirm fixed elements.
02
AI Floor
Layout
The engine proposes an efficient apartment layout aligned with code and daylight access.
03
Edit & Plan Services
Drag walls and adjust specs; utilities and quantities update in real time.
04
Costing
& Order
Get precise takeoffs, pricing, and lead times—then place the order.
Why this workflow works
You get faster feasibility, predictable budgets, and clean exports that move projects forward without rework. For developers, this means shorter timelines and clearer pro-formas; for architects and contractors, accurate takeoffs, fewer RFIs, and ready-to-build packages. Enterprise plans offer SSO, API access, custom catalogs/pricing, and SLA support—submit a request to learn about corporate tiers and onboarding.
The Canadian Real Estate Challenge
anada faces a structural mismatch: downtown office vacancies remain ~17–18% in major cities while housing demand continues to rise. Traditional office-to-residential work is slow, costly, and intrusive—wet stacks must be added, uneven slabs leveled, multiple trades coordinated, and permits iterated, driving overruns.
ModuLoft offers a practical path for conversions: modular raised-floor panels with integrated service channels plus an AI planning platform that generates code-aligned layouts, quantity takeoffs, and budgets in minutes.
The result is fewer trades on site, quieter installation, predictable costs, and schedules shortened by 30–50%, helping projects qualify for CMHC/municipal incentives and bringing idle towers back into productive use.
