Tidewater Custom Modular Homes Blog

Building modular homes is not new. Yet there is still the challenge to change the perception of modular homes.

Gone are the days of cheap, boring designs. Today, companies are using smart factory-built technologies to speed up the construction process, while hiring leading architects to deliver open, multi-use spaces.

Searching for a modern, environmentally friendly home, but can’t find anything? If you are interested in building an affordable, custom designed home then modular homes are perfect, built in a controlled setting where the weather is not a factor.

Modular homes are modern, green and delivered already built, yet you still have the ability to use your creativity with the designs, finishes and floor plans.
 
Modular homes are perfect for buyers who want a newly built home fast, who plan on construction timetables of three months and not the 12 to 18 months it takes to build a conventional stick built home.

These new prefab home designs are sleek, ultra-green performers,

The cost of buying a modular home is similar to a stick or site-built home, usually about $10  to $30 less per square foot, but the main advantages comes down to quality control (because it's built in a factory) and in the speed of construction.

Modular construction is a disciplined way of building because the price is locked in near the start. No surprises

It makes so much sense to build modular because the home is built quickly and you don't have to worry about weather. Contact Tidewater Custom Modular Homes for more information.

Modular construction is a green and energy-saving form of construction when compared to typical stick-built.

Tidewater Custom Modular Homes recently built a custom modular home with loads of new home amenities. The house offers quartz counters, hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, ceramic tile floors in the baths with floor heater strips, a tankless hot water heater, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems and 50-year architectural shingles. Elevated front and rear screened porches offer scenic views.

The home is a three-story house with 2,700 square feet of modular-built living space on two floors.

The price per square foot was $110 which is significantly less money than a stick built custom home which can start around $125 per square foot and can easily reach $200 per square foot.
