Why are Modular Homes Built Faster?

A significant benefit to building a modular home is speed. Your new home goes up faster than a conventionally constructed home, without sacrificing customization or quality. As a result, you get a quicker move-in date and lower costs for financing, temporary housing and more. Today’s post explains why modular homes are built faster than traditional stick-built homes.
Why Are Modular Homes Built Faster?
At Westchester Modular Homes Construction Corp., we take four to six months from permit to completion. In contrast, a conventionally constructed home takes nine to twelve months. Why is that? One of the main reasons is the controlled environment of the factory where we build modular homes. Our building team works year-round, regardless of weather conditions. That eliminates the weather-related delays that can slow down stick-built homes.
Additionally, factory building protects against damaged or stolen building materials, which can cause massive delays for site builders every year. Furthermore, crews build the foundation and the home at the same time, which reduces the overall construction time. For a conventional home, the builder must finish the foundation before the house can go up, and that adds a significant amount of time.
Finally, factories buy supplies in bulk, so mass-produced materials on an assembly line are readily available. You do not have to rely on individual deliveries, which can easily run late.
Faster, and Still Highly Customized
Our modular homes go up faster, yet we still customize each one for the client. We offer a computer aided design studio where our clients can pick out finishes, fixtures and more and visualize them before purchasing. This center is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and you can reach it easily from home or office.
