WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A SYSTEMS-BUILT MODULAR HOME IN COMPARAISON TO A SITE-BUILT HOME?
The advantages are several: a. EXPEDITIOUSNESS The completion time of a modular-built house project is dramatically faster than a comparative site-built project. A typical 3000 sq. ft. house will go through factory in five to six weeks, and, once the modules are installed on foundation, the on-site finish work should typically be another 6 to 8 weeks. b. QUALITY A systems-built modular house is built in factory under much more scrutiny for quality assurance than its site-built comparative. Being built in factory means that the structure is built in the dry. The materials are not exposed to the weather which eliminates the deterioration and the reduction of structural which can occur when the structural members are exposed to the elements. This assures the home owner that his/her house will be constructed under rigid quality control standards that can be implemented only in a factory environment. Module floor and wall components are built in factory on jigs to within a 1/8 inch toleranc
