Why Build Modular

Modular Construction is the smart choice

Modular construction will have a positive impact on the process, cost and future value of your new home. Modular construction is really a technology. And as a technology, it is constantly changing, evolving and improving so the end result of a home built today is state of the art construction, weatherization and efficiency.

» Accurate Building Estimates

The initial process of designing your home and calculating costs will open your eyes to one of the efficiencies of modular construction. Your home will be completely designed before the first piece of lumber is cut. Every detail will be decided up front including cabinetry, flooring, and fixtures so you can relax and enjoy watching your home come together. Knowing your project costs up front will bring you tremendous peace of mind.

» Defined Schedules

Your builder can tell you when your home will be completed and ready for you. Modular construction is a carefully coordinated process. Your builder knows how long it will take and can pinpoint your occupancy date. This allows you the opportunity to have everything ready for moving day.

» Craftsmanship and Material Efficiencies

From the first nail to the last, modular construction offers you the benefit of skilled craftsmanship. Part of your home will be constructed off-site in a controlled, factory environment utilizing state-of-the-art building technology. Much of the structural work will be completed by highly-trained builders who specialize in framing, insulating, and other “rough” construction. This work continues no matter what the weather. No one is waiting for a subcontractor to arrive. Every trade is on-hand to be ready when your project needs them.

When your project is ready for delivery, your builder’s team goes into high gear to complete your home on schedule. Any custom finish work or specialty construction will be completed on-site.

» Building Integrity

When you choose modular construction, you’ll work with a builder who is licensed by the State of Maine. You can rest easy knowing your home will be built to national building codes. Your plans, once they are finalized, will be reviewed and approved by an independent third-party engineering firm before any construction begins.
