| 1.What is a panelized home? |
|
| "Panelized" refers to a more recent method of home construction in which a home is built in wall sections, or panels, under ideal, climate-controlled factory conditions. Floor systems, or "decks," are built
the same way. Outside walls may or may not have windows, siding and wiring pre-installed. Decks and interior walls are engineered and constructed to accommodate
plumbing and heat runs. Roof trusses, gable ends and all other components needed to make a complete home are then loaded onto specially-designed flatbed trailers, wrapped with tarps for moisture protection and trucked to a customer's home site. Panelized homes are customizable, second only to stick building for
flexibility. The panelized home has the added benefit of quick, on-site completion, often finishing weeks ahead of comparable stick-built projects. Hundreds of floor plans and interior trim options are often available in a panelized home.
