Many
believe that LOWER COST is the main reason
why people build modular, but surprisingly,
lower cost is only a secondary consideration.
SUPERIOR QUALITY is the main reason people
build modular, followed by QUICKER BUILDING
TIME, then FIXED COSTS, and finally LOWER
PRICE. Other important reasons seem to be
greater energy efficiency and extended warranties.
In other words, building with modular technology
provides superior quality housing, built
faster, at a fixed cost saving you money.
Modular Homes are
built to the Uniform Building Code (UBC),
California Building Code, along with local
building codes, so there is no quality difference
from a home built at a building site.

Modular
Homes are built smarter, faster, and stronger
than on-site builders. A building site is
a notoriously inefficient place. Workers
wait around for one job to be performed
until they can do their work. Contractors
are late, weather delays work, materials
are wasted, material are lost due to on-site
theft and delays happen as material runs
out and has to be re-ordered.
Modular building technology streamlines
the building process by performing 80% of
your home's work in the controlled environment
of a factory. With a team of well-trained
laborers, each area of your house from the
framing and wiring to the cabinets will
be built by a craftsman that specializes
in that area of construction. Materials
are on hand and ready when the |
work
is ready to be performed. And, because the
entire team of building specialists is in
one place, your home will be built more
quickly and better. On a traditional building
site, workers tend to work less than half
of the time. With a Modular Home, the factory
managers ensure that all of the plant workers
perform efficiently the entire time that
they are on shift. Most inspection sign
offs are done at the factory. Factory workers
are judged daily on their work. They are
responsible for maintaining a minimum quality
of work or loose their job. |
