Why is PreFab ADU a cost effective option?

The PreFabricated Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are shortly described as the PreFab ADU. The ADU PreFab homes​ become increasingly popular due to a cost-effective option. The  ADU PreFab homes are the best option for the homeowners looking to expand their living space or generate rental income. The PreFab is a cost-effectiveness option due its manufacturing efficiencies. The PreFab homes are prepared in a short time compared to the traditional, site-built construction. This can reduce the overall construction cost of the Prefab home.

Here are various reasons why the PreFab ADUs are a cost-effective option for home seekers.

Reduced Labor Costs: 

You need to understand that a significant portion of construction costs consists of the labor cost. In the case of the PreFab ADUs most of the construction process is done inside the  factory-controlled environment. This inhouse construction allows  to save extra cost:

• Specialized Teams: With the passage of time the factory workers become highly skilled overtime. It is due to the specific tasks repetition and specialized workforce. This increases productivity and reduces the time needed for each stage.
• Fewer On-site Workers: There are fewer workers needed once the unit arrives on your property. This allows the assembly and finishing touches quick and fast. These factors translate directly into lower labor expenses and quick delivery time.
• Minimized Rework: The controlled factory environment helps to precisely manufacture the given design. It minimizes errors and the need for rework and hence reduces the overall construction time. 

Faster Construction Time: 

The PreFab ADUs boast significantly shorter construction timelines. These homes can save precious construction time as time is money in the construction process.

• Weather Independence: The factory construction is not subject to weather delays. The weather delays can be like the rain, extreme heat, etc. Such extreme conditions can stall on-site projects for days or weeks. This can prevent unexpected cost overruns due to extended timelines.
• Quick Installation: The best PreFab ADU are the adjustable units and once the unit is transported to the site. The installation process can often be completed in a matter of days. The home owner starts utilizing their ADU much sooner, providing a quicker return on investment.

Material Efficiency and Waste Reduction: 

Normally the factories are optimized to work more efficiently and reduce the overall construction cost due to process repetition and waste reduction. 

• Bulk Purchasing: The manufacturers can purchase materials in bulk to prepare the same material for the Prefab ADUs. It leads to cost savings that are passed on to the consumer.
• Precision Cutting: The materials are precisely cut and assembled to minimize the overall waste of the production. The advanced machinery and equipment is high-tech and controlled by computers. 
• Recycling Programs: In the factory settings often have efficient recycling programs to reuse the material. This further reduces the overall for construction waste and further reduces environmental impact.

Final Thought:

In the traditional construction there can be some “hidden” costs. These are like the  transportation fees, crane rental, and extensive site preparation for the construction process.ThePreFab ADUs are generally a significantly more predictable option  compared to the traditional construction process.
