What is a transportable home?
Transportable homes are built in modules or components. Each section is manufactured at the factory and transported to the site by truck; hence the name 'transportable'. Each
component is connected and forms a perfect home. The house is stumped and connected to services such as gas, water and electricity.
It is not always possible to transport a modular home in a single unit due to the varying
size's of each home. Usually, these homes are sent in sections to be put together on the site.
The modules are designed by architects, engineers and technicians with the requirements of the entire structure being considered. Because transportable homes must be built in a controlled environment the construction is never behind due to bad weather or other environmental influences. This leads to the fact that the homes can be built more quickly and on time.
The factories where the transportable homes are built is required to be a strict quality controlled environment with the aim to ensure that the quality of dwellings are all built to meet the home construction standards.
In addition, transportable homes are built to meet the weather conditions in the region it is to be located as well as all the rules and regulations of the area.
Why transportable homes are cheaper compared with the site built home?
Transportable homes are built in a factory controlled environment, where all materials are
easily accessible. So the cost of transporting building materials and travel costs for
tradesman can be avoided, saving both time and money.
Transportable housing packages have to comply with the 5 star rating for energy requirements in Australia. Most manufacturers include energy saving options such as insulation and glazing, to ensure that this requirement is met. The house is therefore cooler during summer and warmer during winter, with this also helping to reduce energy bills as well.
