Modular vs Conventional
|
When
modular homes are eliminated as a solution due to site problems
and design limitations. Panelized homes can be the solution
to building your dream home. Panelized structures are an alternative
way to build dormers and add to your home. This is a quicker,
smarter and faster way to build.
Factory built panels and modular homes are giving conventional
site-built homes a run for their money. In more ways than one
systems built homes are not only smarter better and faster,
but cost effective too. A study
published by the Wood Truss Council of America showed savings
of over $3,000 when a 2,600-square-foot home was built utilizing
trusses and wall panels versus conventional framing methods.
Modular homes and other system based building techniques such
as panelized have signifnantly advantages in cost, time saving
and quality.
Building home modularly or using panels in the
controlled setting of a factory often results in higher quality,
energy efficient construction with more resources resulting
in a better built structure. In many cases, the product is more
energy efficient and termite resistant than stick-built homes,
too. Stick structures are labor intensive and leave more room
for errors and miscalculations. The shell goes up quickly and
leaves the structure with much less susceptible to weather and
climate conditions. This allows for the other contractors to
work in a useable environment and keep the project on a desirable
timetable.
As the white-hot housing market cools, builders
can maintain a competitive edge by improving construction quality
while controlling costs. This is essential in giving builders
the tools utilizing system built structures with the benefits
that are passed down to the customer. Providing customers with
affordable alternative ways of building is driving system based
structures. Building with panelization overcomes the obstacles
that are encountered with conventional means of building. This
makes it simpler and easier to erect the building process almost
fool proof.

Why you should start building
with panels today:
There was a time when building a new home stick
by stick on a building lot was the standard and accepted course
of construction. Times have changed in the residential building
market drastically. More builders and buyers are recognizing
that the old methods are not the most effective way of building.
Increasingly, homes are being erected using a panelized building
system as the system of choice. The panelized construction technique
utilizes advanced technology, quality materials and a controlled
work environment. This method of building wall panels lends
itself to constructing an energy-efficient and durable home
in less time.
Panelized home building system retains the best
aspects of stick frame construction. It combines time-tested
building methods with modern technology to deliver a well-designed,
energy efficient and beautiful new home. This process has many
benefits with no down side effects. With no design limitations
this might be the method of choice to build.
Harvest
Homes unique building system includes, panelizing of floor
decks, wall panels with windows and exterior doors installed,
and an engineered roof system. Our crane truck delivery and
qualified crane operator will set the panels significantly reducing
the labor necessary to construct your home. This building technique
will enclose your home faster and protect it from the elements
in just a few days. More important, this saves on your construction
costs. That means a faster completion date and a quicker move
into your new home
