What Are The Great Advantages of Modular Homes

What makes a modular house unique is that it is manufactured in an environment-controlled factory. One of the advantages of modular home setup is that there can be no delay of building due to weather.

Additionally, the materials will not be wet due to rain and other similar occurrences. According to studies, the lumber molds are generally acquired during transportation, construction, and storage.

With the controlled environment the modules of modular houses are built, we are guaranteed that the lumbers which will be used are not contaminated with molds.

Flexibility of Designs

The undeniable possibilities of styles that can be accomplished from the modules paves way to customization that caters best your needs. The range of possible designs is endless and you can fit your budget in the elevation you possible desire. But of course, these have to comply with the local building codes and we have professionals to guide you through that.

Speedy Construction and Building

Modular houses are built for 1/3 of the time needed compared to site-built houses. Upon observation, one of the factors of this is the concurrent construction of the site work and home building.

Consequently, there is a reduced construction financing interest. Also, there is a professional and skilled workforce in the factory that makes sure the modules are constructed and delivered on time. This will eliminate delays which site-built houses encounter when workers are “no-show”.

Better Construction Quality

Since the modules of the houses are built in factories, the manufacturing process allows us to utilize tools to ensure the highest qualities of ceilings, walls, and floors.

Some of these tools are not accessible for site-built homes. There are also techniques to ensure the durability of the walls and the proper installation of their insulation that can only be achieved in a controlled environment.

Strict Inspection and Regulation

The requisite of manufacturing of modular homes is that all plans must be approved by the local regulators by which the homes will be sold. The designs and built must follow the local codes where the modules of the houses will be installed.

Furthermore, the manufacturer will also contact a state-licensed third party inspector for the inspection of the production plant where the modules are manufactured.

The third party will also determine whether the manufacturers are indeed building the house modules in compliance to the local building codes.

Rigid Compliance to Building Codes

Philippine Modular housing construction, being non-traditional is expected to be closely monitored to comply with the standards of local building codes.

As stated above, the manufacturer is more than willing to assist the third-party inspector to go over the plans and provisions set.

Energy Efficient

Effective construction techniques and quality engineering are employed to ensure the energy-efficiency of your modular house.

We are very particular to the insulation to the wall so that there is greater energy efficiency.

With the modular approach the manufacturer is able to install sealants to allow easy access to electrical outlets and fixtures which are normally difficult to access.

One advantages of modular homes is that they have less air infiltration thus regulating heat loss from home. Check some of the featured modular homes models in Philippines here and learn what other features it offers.
