Prefabrication is a relatively new way to build structures, and like many new things, you’ll hear mixed opinions about it. What people don’t like about it varies.
It ranges from the limited customisation you can do on a module, the space you need to transport portions of your facility, or the potential difficulty in getting a loan for a modular home.
While prefabrication has its flaws, there are reasons why they’re growing in popularity. Now, let’s talk about the handful of advantages of prefabricated homes.
Prefabricated homes are factory-built, which allows the construction and foundation work to complete off-site. This strategic and simultaneous construction reduces the project’s duration compared to traditional construction.
Prefabricated homes are more affordable than traditionally built homes. A controlled environment, like a factory, allows your project to incur fewer costs on materials and storage. Such can also avoid damage and loss of materials.
Since a prefabricated home model already has built-in construction, materials, and design plans. Resource planning makes it possible to reduce waste and raw materials; savings on vehicles, equipment, and other considerations.
They produce less waste and are therefore energy-efficient and resilient, making them more sustainable and eco-friendly than traditional builds.
