Are you toying with the idea of choosing a modular homes or building? Unsure of exactly what the benefits are of this construction?

Off-site construction has many advantages over traditional construction. It provides both speed and superior building quality. This is because individual modular building components can be built in state-of-the-art facilities at the same time as site preparation, saving you the customer both time and money. Once the modular building is moved on site, architectural details can be added, making the modular project indistinguishable from conventional construction.
Below is a table which provides additional details on the many advantages of off-site construction.

BENEFIT	DETAILS
Save Money	Saves customers money due to more efficient manufacturing and material sourcing process. Cost overruns are virtually unheard of in the modular building industry. Climate controlled facilities ensure that there are no weather-related construction delays which push back the project timeline. Additional savings through volume purchasing of materials and yearly buying contracts with suppliers.
Save Time	Typically built in 1/3 the time needed to construct an on-site built home. Overall building time is reduced by concurrent site work and home construction. Avoid delays from “no-show subs” as highly skilled workforce works year round within the factory.
Higher Quality	Modular construction offers increased building quality due to the controlled construction environment. Manufacturers are able to utilize tools unavailable to the site builder such as custom manufactured jigs which ensure all walls, floors and ceilings are square and plumb.
Energy Efficient	Modular homes have much less air filtration which is one of the largest causes of heat loss in a home. Homes constructed in a factory allows the manufacturer to place more sealants, such as caulking, in problem areas that site builders have no access to.
Design Flexibility	Allows for hundreds of options and design possibilities so you can pick the option that best suits your needs. Offer a wide range of house plans to choose from in a variety of styles. Often you can modify or upgrade your general construction specifications and design your own floor plans and elevations. Possibilities are endless!
Environmentally Friendly	Engineered construction materials are utilized and effective in-plant recycling is in place at most modular manufacturing facilities. All excess materials are able to be recycled.
