At Hogan Construction, we’re proud to play a part in shaping the future of school buildings in Ireland. One of our most exciting projects to date is currently underway at St. Flannan’s College in Ennis, a permanent modular classroom development that could help set the standard for future Department of Education builds.
This project uses a timber frame and off-site construction approach, which allows for much of the work to be completed in a controlled environment before being delivered and assembled on site. It’s quicker, more efficient, and helps to reduce disruption at live school locations, something we always prioritise.
So why modular construction? There are plenty of benefits, particularly when working in education. The speed of delivery means schools can be up and running sooner, without months of disruption. Off-site work also improves safety and reduces the number of workers needed on site. Plus, with tighter control over manufacturing, we can deliver consistent quality every time.
From a sustainability point of view, this method helps reduce waste, improve energy efficiency, and cut down on transport emissions. As a result, it’s not just a smart option for schools, it’s a better choice for the environment too.
At Hogan Construction, we’ve invested heavily in our own plant and machinery so we can take full control of every stage of the build. This allows us to manage everything from the initial groundwork through to final handover, without relying on multiple subcontractors. It’s a more efficient way to work, and it helps us keep quality and timelines on track.
We’re proud to be involved in a project like St. Flannan’s and look forward to sharing more updates as the build progresses.
