Affordability - Since the houses are built in a factory by a stable work force under controlled conditions with more predictable raw material inventory and supply, assembly is much more efficient, resulting in structures less expensive than stick-built housing by at least 10% to 30%.

Sound Construction - Modular construction is tighter and stronger compared to stick-built or traditional methods. On average a modular home will use 20% more lumber, producing a more energy efficient home. Modular homes are over engineered in order to withstand the transportation to job site.

The controlled indoor environment and experienced labor force can construct with consistent quality. Workers familiar with their product can easily integrate materials and techniques into the process when working side-by-side with individuals of other trade backgrounds.

Quicker Schedule - Modular homes are assembled in a factory while earthwork, foundations, and utilities are prepared on-site. When properly scheduled, the modular sections or modulars can be installed on-site within a week or two of delivery. Also, the quick building cycle of modular construction can reduce or eliminate job site vandalism and theft. Complete hook-up, final grading, and landscaping can usually be completed within one month, often sooner.

Reduced Waste - Waste materials are minimized, and the waste generated is much more easily reused and recycled in a factory environment. Everybody is talking, “GREEN” today and many modular home facilities around the country are starting to utilize recyclable materials into their homes.

Less Site Impact - Since the site schedule is compressed, far fewer materials are stored on-site, fewer workers are on-site for less time and make less noise, and there is generally no need to have large dumpsters sitting around for extended periods--if at all. This all makes for happier neighbors.
