Modular Container House - Advantages of Building Prefab Homes

Published: 19/9/2021 | Views: 123

If you are looking at living in a modular home that is both cost effective and environmentally friendly, then why not construct a prefabricated steel or wood container home? It's much cheaper to buy a prefabricated steel home than a traditional wood home and the savings will be enjoyed year after year. These homes are easy to construct and come with a warranty that lasts for up to twenty years. Here are some more advantages to living in a two story modular home:

No rotting. Steel doesn't rot easily and usually lasts for many years. A modular container house is naturally flame resistant as well. Easy to assemble: Modular container houses can be put together in just a few hours using common tools like a screwdriver and drill gun. Also, no roofing material is needed because modular container houses are already attached to their frames.

Attractive design. Because Modular container homes come in many different designs, they have a unique look that sets them apart from traditional homes. You can choose between modern, contemporary, cottage style, ranch or country themes. Because the interior partitions in these units can be removed or changed whenever you like, you can use your living room as your private library or playroom whenever you want. Modular house designs are very versatile, so you can have the home of your dreams regardless of your taste.

Easy to build on a budget. Because modular container houses are manufactured in factories and shipping containers instead of on site with traditional construction, the manufacturing cost is significantly less. Also, because there is no need to build an attached garage or storage facility for storage of supplies and equipment, the unit's cost for utilities, including electricity, is also much lower than most homes. Since most of these containers are assembled in a shipping container on a title frame, you can also get the entire unit delivered to your door which eliminates the costly cost of using local builders.

Easy assembly. Most modular container house kits include easy to assemble plans for you to build your house. All you have to do is put down the floor plan on graph paper and draw the structure of the bedroom and other sections. Then attach the sections to each other with drywall or utility cement. Most house plans include instructions for you to fasten the sections onto the framework by using drywall anchors or screws. You can easily install sliding doors and windows and adjust the ceilings, walls, floors and other features of your Modular container house without any assistance.

Eco-friendly. Because the panels in these prefabricated homes are made of lightweight aluminum or stainless steel material, they are much easier to assemble and disassemble. That makes them ideal for home decoration and DIY projects. And because they contain lumber or steel frames, they make for strong and sturdy home decoration pieces that last long.

No moving walls. One of the biggest disadvantages of a modular home or one that contains prefabricated panels is its lack of moving walls. Because most of these container homes are assembled on tilt backs, they usually have flat floors. The lack of insulation in shipping containers also makes them unsuitable for heating purposes. But with these homes, you can install a wood-burning fireplace and install insulation in the walls to keep the inside temperature warm during winter and cool during summer.

Increased comfort. Aside from saving money and being easy to assemble or install, another big advantage of these prefabricated steel structure homes is that you can get more space in your living room. With a larger living room, you can accommodate friends and family for a barbecue or a party. And because shipping containers come with a standard dimension of 30 feet by 24 feet, you can actually build a larger home than what you actually wanted. You can build it bigger if you want and your budget will not be affected or you can gelp help from zn-house.com which can help assemble container house.
