MODULAR HOMES.
Panoptic Development’s use of modular home construction results in precisely built homes. We transport factory-built foundational, structural, infrastructural and architectural components to the construction site and assemble them in half the time and cost of equivalent stick-built homes. Just like traditional constructed buildings, Panoptic Development’s modular projects are designed based on site-specific requirements under complete scrutiny and inspection of local building department officials.
What is Modular Construction?
Modular construction is a process in which a building is pre-built off-site in pieces (modules) that when put together on site, reflect the identical design intent and specifications of the most sophisticated site-built facility – without compromise. A modular home is not a mobile home; it is simply a home that is built off-site, as opposed to on-site.
Mobile homes are built according to the federal HUD building Code. This requires all mobile homes to built on a non-removable steel chassis, which severely limits their design options. On the other hand, Modular homes do not have design limitations. They can be any shape or size and will meet or exceed your local and state building codes.
How Long Does It Take to Build a Modular Home?
Same material, half the time.
Modular homes can be built in as little as one to two weeks, depending on your design and the manufacturer. Modulars are built in a climate-controlled area so there are never weather delays. Once the modulars are constructed it takes another two to four weeks for your local builder to put the pieces together after the materials are delivered to the building site.
MODULAR IS THE MODERN SOLUTION
Construction costs for a modular home can be less per square foot than for a similar site-built home, and they have other cost-saving features. In many ways, modular homes are superior to stick-built homes, and, once assembled, cannot be distinguished from their traditionally built counterpart.
Modular construction provides solutions to many problems encountered on-site. With approximately 80-90% of the structure completed in the factory, there are fewer delays from inspections and bad weather at the building site. The chance of material theft and vandalism is minimized, fewer subcontractors are needed to complete the project and stress upon the surrounding community is significantly reduced.
