Why Choose a Prefab Home over Traditional Ones?
This is the big question. The easy answer here used to be cost, and in some instances, that’s still the case. Some prefabricated homes are still cheaper than traditional construction. However, a quality panelized home or log cabin home isn’t going to be substantially cheaper, if any, than traditional building styles. What you do get, however, is more out of the money you do spend. • Because prefab residences are built in a factory, the building process is more efficient. That means less waste, less materials, and the savings get passed on to you. • You’re guaranteed a certain level of quality if your home, or parts of it, are built in a factory setting. Unlike many construction job sites, factories tend to run a tight ship around the clock. • Finally, because they’re built and ready to go, the frame of a prefabricated home usually goes up much faster than traditional construction. In many cases, prefab homes can be raised twice as fast or faster. Ready to start planning your new home?
