Although some people are new to the idea of modular construction, its practice, has in fact, been around for a long time. The first modular home for sale was called the Sears Modern Home and was offered by the Sears Roebuck Company. The homes were sold through their catalog from 1908 to 1940 and were mailed to the customer in kits for assembly.
Some people still envision a standard trailer but modular
homes and buildings can be custom designed to meet the unique needs of the
client and virtually indistinguishable from stick-built structures. Modular
buildings can be single or multi-story with a variety of interior and exterior
finishes to choose from.
Another myth is that modular buildings are low quality.
Nothing could be further from the truth. Built to the same standards as
traditional construction and meet or exceed all state and local building codes.
Modular construction is overseen by construction managers and engineers both in
the factory and on-site to ensure structures are
built correctly.
The only difference between a modular building and a
traditional building is that the modular building is built in a factory. Modular
buildings have been used not only for homes, but school buildings, hotels and lavish
offices. If you want a home or building that is built to your specifications in
a timely manner, then modular is the way to go.
