What are Prefabricated Homes?

Prefabricated homes are constructed differently from traditional homes. These homes are created in sections within a factory and then assembled on site. These types of houses are sometimes also referred to as modular homes.

Construction

Prefabricated homes are constructed on an assembly line in a climate-controlled factory. Each module is constructed individually and has its own basic blueprint. Each module is fully constructed before it is shipped to the construction site. Once the foundation is complete, the modules arrive on-site and are assembled on the foundation. After each module is in place, the wiring and plumbing are connected inside and out of the building. Lastly, the finishing work begins on both the interior and exterior of the building and decorative accents and landscaping are added.

Safety

A main concern people have about modular homes is the safety and durability of the structure. Although these homes are built quickly, there is no sacrifice in quality. These prefabricated homes are constructed in a factory by highly trained specialized workers and meet or exceed building codes and standards.

Time

There are many benefits to having a prefabricated home. The most popular benefit is the shortened construction timeline. Building one a modular home takes a fraction of the time a traditional home takes to build. Some people are able to have their prefabricated home in about three months compared to a traditional home that can take anywhere from six months to one year.
