Building a home is an exciting time in anyone’s life. The feeling of creating your own space, where you can raise a family and call it your own, brings with it many emotions that are difficult to put into words. But for all the excitement and anticipation there is also stress. Building a modular home takes some extra planning and consideration as well as some additional costs depending on which route you take – but here’s our guide to building a modular home so you’re ready for anything that comes your way!
Faster Construction Times
The biggest benefit of a modular home is the construction time. With traditional homes, building begins as soon as a contractor or developer has secured all necessary permits and land – sometimes more than 18 months in advance to get everything lined up properly. Modular homes allow for builders to assemble pre-built pieces at their plant before they are transported on site.
Inclusions That Complete Your Home
A modular home is essentially a house-in-a bin. This means that the builder has already included all of your major must-haves before you even arrive on site: kitchen, bathroom, electrical and plumbing systems. All appliances are also included in this prebuilt model so you have to do little more than plug everything in as soon.
Eco-Friendly, Sustainable Homes
Modular homes are built to last. They use the newest in energy-efficient building techniques and materials that not only save on home costs but also keep your carbon footprint at a minimum. Modularity offers homeowners an affordable, low-impact option when they’re ready for their next move up without sacrificing quality or style.
Flexible Design Options
Modular homes can be built modular or site-built. Modular construction offers homeowners the freedom to customize their home design and size, improve energy efficiency and save on a lot of time with faster development timelines. Site-built modularity is ideal for those who want all of the benefits that come from building a new home – without any compromises.
