Why Black Diamond

Efficiency is at the forefront of all Black Diamond Group projects. We offer an unparalleled schedule and service by completing modular building construction inside our factory, mitigating the risk of delays and saving you both time and money.

We also offer our customers the option to complete on-site development and installation during school holidays in order to reduce the impact on your school.

Our team of highly-qualified experts are backed by a financially sound corporate structure which allows us the ability to offer cost-effective, fixed monthly prices, provide quotes upfront and offer a time-saving and cost-saving service.

School demountables offer the added value of portability and flexibility. Complexes can be expanded or decreased in size to suit your specific needs and can also be added on to existing, non-modular building structures.

Relocatability makes modular classrooms ideal for the expanding number of students and changes in learning space needs.

In order to minimise the impact on school grounds, Black Diamond Group conducts most of our demountable construction off-site in our factory, which minimises on-site traffic and produces less noise and disruption for community residents.

Operating largely off-site also minimises risk to students and workers as well as the impact on the environment.
