If you are interested in building a new home, you can now be environmentally responsible by building a modular home. Modular Homes from Tidewater Custom Modular Homes are actually built with a green initiative in mind. This includes construction of the panels to the overall energy efficiency of the home once it is finished.

Many of the modular homes today are built to use less energy through either energy efficient appliances or thicker layers of insulation on the sides of the home. When there is less heat being absorbed into the home, the AC doesn’t have to work as hard. As a result, the electricity bills are considerably less. This has a positive impact on the environment as well.

With modular construction there is less material waste and less energy is used during the construction process. In stick-built home, a lot of building materials are wasted because they are cut wrong, or because they are damaged out in the weather.

Many homes going green are built specifically to be energy efficient. There are faucets and shower heads that that need to be selected, and you have choices now that will reduce water flow. In addition, energy efficient appliances can be selected that will use less energy as well.

A typically built home is expensive to build. Add green construction initiatives to it and it may be cost prohibitive for the average homeowner to build. Modular homes are green home construction. They are typically more affordable for home buyers because in general, they are less expensive to build. If you want a green home, you now have an affordable way to own an environmentally friendly home.
