Why Modular Is the Best Green Choice For Home Construction

Building a house with traditional construction is not the only way to build. Most traditionally built homes disturb the environment and waste materials. Using modular construction in order to build a new home allows much less disturbance, pollution and product waste resulting in a healthier and green environment.

Materials that are used to build a green modular house can be recycled and used again. Factory construction not only eliminates waste by utilizing recycled materials but allows inventory to be better controlled and building materials are protected from outdoor elements.

Modular green homes offer greater flexibility and reuse. Modular homes can be relocatable meaning they can be easily disassembled, relocated or refurbished for new use. This reduces the cost of new construction and raw materials.

Green modular homes offer healthier living environments and may include energy efficient features. Some options include daylighting, recycled carpet squares, extra insulation and energy efficient lights, fixtures and appliances. Additionally, factory construction eliminates the potential of moisture or mildew to enter your green modular home. Quality control is completed at the factory, ensuring the home meets and exceeds all safety standards.
