What are Systems-Built houses in Glendale, California?
Most people are more familiar with the word modular home than they are with the word systems-built home , but systems-built, modular, and pre-fab or prefabricated are all words that describe a home that is customized, built, and finished off-site and is relocated to its permanent foundation location. It is a frequent misconception that having your Glendale dream home built on-site is better, cheaper, and more efficient than a new prefab home that is built off-site.
In addition to saving time and money, modular homes tend to be stronger and greener. While no home is ever disaster proof, studies have verified that custom prefabricated homes tend to be far better at withstanding natural disasters and extreme weather conditions that are not uncommon in California.
Why are Modular Homes Better Against Extreme weather conditions?
The above report claimed “Much of the damage to residential structures also resulted from inadequate design, substandard workmanship, and/or misapplication of various building materials. Our new prefab homes are better at withstanding extreme weather conditions for a number of reasons. Many common housing problems are prevented by the vigorous quality assurance checks that all modular homes must undergo.
Specialized Craftsmanship
Modular homes are subject to strict quality control manufacturing regulations. All parts, as well as homes, are factory made. Our builders have all the tools, experience, and training necessary to complete each part of the home flawlessly and to the same requirements every time.
Number of Inspections
Site built homes in Glendale are only need 1 inspection from the state of California and 1 local inspection from the city of Glendale after the final stages of construction are completed. This single inspector is liable for inspecting the roof, plumbing and piping, foundation, insulation, and the rest of the home; new prefab homes, however, are under inspection from the State of California as well as the City of Glendale AND an inspection at every step of the construction process. This ensures high quality at every step of the building process, not just at the final stages.
