Modular homes for year-round use - types , costs , pros and cons

The construction of any building begins with an analysis of various aspects of construction - type of foundation, materials, technology and so on.One of the important factors affecting the determination of the feasibility of the choice of a project at home, are completion dates.Especially in cases where "time is short".

In this regard, interest the so-called modular homes.Are they as good as advertised, differ from traditional buildings, whether they live year-round, how much they cost - all of these questions answers proposed article.

Types of modular structures for living

Block House

They are assembled from individual sections, which are produced in the manufacture and transported to the site in finished form.Blocks for homes are different: different small rooms (bathrooms, toilets, kitchens and so on), or of the overall room.In fact, they need only to seal between the mount and a corresponding engineering system.

Modular prefab house

Such designs a bit more known in our country.Sam "skeleton" made an industrial way of wood or of metal (usually a bar).Its lining is made boards, assembly of which can be carried out or at work, or at the place of construction of the house.Option is selected based on the conditions of construction, architecture and so on.In principle, nothing particularly new in this technology for us anymore - in detail all the stages of construction are described herein.

cost of modular homes

clear answer, how much will cost such a structure does not undertake any specialist.Even with the same "squaring" modular home price depends on the type of finishing features, destination and other factors.It is for this reason that the data differ, sometimes quite significantly.The exact amount can be found only at employees of companies specializing in providing services for the construction of modular structures in a particular region.

Indeed, under the phrase "building for living 'can be understood as anything - summer or full-fledged residential building (private home);hangar for the staff at the facility, which is designed to work over a long period of time, or something else.

to have at least a general idea of ​​the cost of modular homes, only approximate data it is advisable to bring.Although they are quite objectively reflect the situation in the area of ​​pricing.

rates - in rubles / sqm.

For example, garden building for year-round on the 12 "squares" will cost in the region of 98 000 - 110 000 rubles.Small house in the 1st floor of 24 m² (finishing) - about 180 000 rubles.The modular structure of the "turnkey" (50 m²) is of the order of 740 000 - 780 000 rubles.But this implies, inter alia, laying communications and furnish homes and premises.

Modular construction, of course, attractive.But it is doubtful whether the article can be considered complete if you do not stay on its pros and cons.

advantages of modular homes

You can add a number of advantages of modular homes.For example, an unlimited choice of finishing materials, good maintainability, the possibility of year-round construction, in any weather.But there are also disadvantages, which should also be aware of.

Disadvantages

It should be noted that the practice of exploitation of modular homes on the territory of the Russian Federation, with our climate, is still small, and therefore of any say no statistics.On this basis, the advantages and disadvantages - only conclusions based more on theory and calculations of engineers and economists.A practical confirmation is still lacking.

Information on modular homes is enough to come to a definite conclusion.And to what it is, it's up to you, dear reader.
