What is a relocatable home?
Relocatable homes are built in modules or components. Each section
is manufactured at the factory and relocated to the site by truck;
hence the name 'relocatable'. 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 relocate 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 relocatable 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 relocatable 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, relocatable 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 relocatable homes are cheaper compared with the site built
home?
Relocatable 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.
Relocatable 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.
