What are Systems-Built houses in Santa Monica, California?
Most home buyers 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 define 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 Santa Monica new home built on-site is better, less expensive, and more efficient than a modular home that is built off-site.
In addition to saving time and money, modular homes tend to be stronger and more energy efficient. While no home is ever disaster proof, studies have verified that new modular homes tend to be far better at withstanding natural disasters and extreme weather conditions that occur frequently in California.

Specialized Craftsmanship
Modular homes are subject to strict quality control manufacturing regulations. All parts, along with all homes, are factory made. Our builders have all the tools, experience, and training necessary to complete each and every part of the home flawlessly and to the same criteria each time.
Number of Inspections
Site built homes in Santa Monica are only need 1 inspection from the state of California and 1 local inspection from the city of Santa Monica after the last 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; modular homes, however, are under inspection from the State of California as well as the City of Santa Monica AND an inspection at each step of the construction process. This ensures high quality at every step of the building process, not just at the final stages.
