What are Systems-Built houses in San Diego, 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 common misconception that having your San Diego dream home built on-site is better, cheaper, and more efficient than a 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 prefabricated homes are far better at withstanding natural disasters and extreme weather that are not uncommon in California.
Why are Modular Homes Better Against Extreme weather? 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 prefab homes are better at withstanding extreme weather 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 San Diego are subject to 1 inspection from the state of California and 1 local inspection from the city of San Diego after the final stages of construction are completed. This single inspector is responsible for inspecting the roof, plumbing and piping, foundation, insulation, and the rest of the home; prefab homes, however, are under inspection from the State of California as well as the City of San Diego 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.
