What Is A Prefab Home?

Prefab homes, short for prefabricated homes, are all created off-site to some degree. One form of this building method is modular construction, but building a modular home comes with many limitations. Panelized prefab kit homes have wall panels constructed off-site that are then delivered to the build lot. These wall sections are easy to transport and assemble on location. Unlike traditional construction, which is often delayed by local weather and other on-site issues, prefab houses offer a quicker and more cost-effective building solution. They maintain high quality and design standards. Their popularity is growing every year due to their association with modern design and eco-friendly innovations. Prefab house building is a more controlled, precise, and efficient method for your Colorado building project.

Difference Between Modular and Kit Homes?

The primary difference between modular and manufactured homes is found in their construction methods and the use of permanent foundations. Built in sections or modules within a factory, kit homes are later transported to the job site where they are assembled on a permanent foundation. This construction approach conforms to the same building codes as those applied to site-built homes.

Modular homes, formerly known as mobile homes, are fully assembled in a factory before being transported to their designated site, where they are sometimes placed on a temporary foundation. Unlike panelized prefab and site-built homes that must adhere to local building codes, manufactured houses are built in accordance with federal HUD building codes, which have different requirements.

While both types of housing can be affordable, kit house packages provide greater opportunities for customization. They also typically mimic the appearance and quality of traditional site-built homes.

Looking For A Custom Home Builder in Colorado?

Whether you are wanting to construct a luxurious house with multiple floors, or a simple tiny house that will act as an accessory dwelling unit, you want to make sure to choose a builder you can be confident in.

Benefits of Prefab Modular Homes

Prefabricated houses present numerous benefits that cater to the needs of today’s homeowners. Primarily, these homes are designed to be energy-efficient, aiming to lower both energy consumption and costs. Additionally, there are endless floor plans available with this building method, enabling buyers to choose or customize layouts that fit their personal lifestyle. The process from start to finish is highly streamlined, often resulting in a quicker completion time with fewer delays compared to traditional construction.

Prefab wall components are built within a factory’s controlled environment, reducing the risks of weather and the inconsistencies that come with onsite construction. Additionally, these houses offer flexibility in square footage, allowing them to be expanded or reduced according to the homeowner’s specific preferences. This adaptability also extends to the choice of features and finishes, ensuring that each of our projects, whether custom or pre-designed, aligns with personal tastes and requirements.

Over the years, the factory-based construction process has greatly evolved, improving both quality control and predictability. Once completed, these modules are transported securely to the site, where they are assembled. This approach minimizes disruption to the local area and speeds up the delivery of your dream house. Whether you are building in Denver, Colorado Springs, Aspen, or a completely remote location, our panelized prefab houses will make your building project as simple as possible while achieving superior build quality.

What is the difference between modular homes and our prefab houses?

Kit homes, such as those provided by Pacific Homes, adhere to local building codes just like traditional site-built homes. These houses are often called prefab homes because their components are prefabricated in factories. In contrast, modular houses are entirely built ahead of time, and might not always align with strict local standards. Because these houses are shipped completely prebuilt, they are limited in size and shape and often can not be customized to your liking.
