Contrary to common misconceptions, modular houses do not look exactly the same. Modular houses have no design restrictions. You can create any style of modular house, whether it is a traditional central hall or a Mediterranean house. You can add any style of windows or architectural details you want. Almost all houses can be turned into modular houses, and you can create your own ideal house.

How to assemble a modular house?

The factory-built houses were initially completed in an indoor factory. The completed parts are transported to the construction site and then assembled by crane. This process is similar to a children's building with Lego bricks. The modular house cannot be moved after being placed and placed on its foundation.

If you are designing your own house, be sure to ask specific questions, because each manufacturer’s operating guidelines are different. Modular houses provide hundreds of personalized features, including (but not limited to) ceramic floors, solid surface countertops, various cabinet styles and wood types, exterior finishes, sanitary ware, etc. You can fundamentally customize your house.

Are modular houses more expensive than houses built on site?

Prefab houses can usually save you a lot of money. Since they are built in a factory, they can be built quite quickly-weeks instead of months, because there is no weather delay. In addition, all inspections are carried out in the factory by third-party inspectors at each stage of construction and are completed before the house is transported to its permanent location.

However, it must be noted that the more complex the design and specifications, the higher the cost of your house. Electrical, plumbing and plumbing works are usually not included in the initial price, so the final cost may be 20% higher than the builder's quote. You may also need to install a septic tank system, natural gas or basement. These will also increase your bottom line.

Are modular houses suitable for ADU?

From a construction perspective, it is more suitable for Detahced's ADU construction, especially in areas with high living costs such as the Bay Area and LA, where time is a very important measure. High rent costs make home owners choose modular houses as a major factor. Another thing to note is that the construction site must have enough space.

Recommendation: Before making a decision, communicate with the manufacturers of modular houses in detail, and conduct in-depth consultations on the design of the house, material costs, construction costs, transportation costs and after-sales service.
