LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! Are Modular Homes Better Than Stick Built? ( WATCH 👀 How "Modular Home Companies Are Lying! \kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4TEqomgjM2grKM)

[@chadmasters3935]

Just watching @cyfyhomeinspections inspecting new construction, I would say yes.

[@jwyllor]

@KristinaSmallhorn I agree that modular is now better. I used to work at a modular home factory, and I will tell you that they have come a long way in 30 years. With the issues they mention, plus the problem with so many new home builders being scam artists, it is no surprise that the modular builders decided to expand their business to better quality at a lower price, while offering more styles and options.

[@nightrunner1456]

You need to design a home where (if) the roof, comes off, in a hurricane, IT'S NO PROBLEM.

[@j10001]

No link to the home builder? Westchester ?

[@markw999]

Yes. I actually wanted a plain 'ol double wide on my own 1/2 acre or so when I bought my current home. Guess what? Anywhere that's allowed those lots go for a premium and they don't come up very often. Very high demand. Against my better judgement I bought another stick built. And yes, regretting it. My old 2002 1200sf double wide cost no more than $50 in utilities. 1400 sf of stick built climbs North of $150 all the time. The fact that you almost can't get a lot tells you a lot.

[@agnostic1247]

Anyone who’s had a stick built home in the last 30 years probably won’t take much convincing.

[@KristinaSmallhorn]

You’re not wrong.

[@TheClubbinator]

My wife and I now believe that modular built homes are better than stick built. She has mold poisoning/illness. Ty for sharing this video!!

[@markw999]

It gets worse during construction booms. Those trades aren't something you pick up in a few days of training, believe it or not. The kids beating nails during construction booms were often flipping burgers last week. I had to re-hang every door in my first stick built house and clean the vents. The goofballs building it apparently thought the holes in the floor were for trash. LOL.

[@paulbrittgarcia]

Sad, but true!

[@lizzieb6311]

I’ve been in the construction industry for thirty years…. I can assure you, my next home WILL BE a modular home. The fact that building materials are not sitting on a job site - exposed to the elements for days, weeks, months on end during traditional build is reason enough for me. These homes are PROTECTED from the rain during the build - reducing the chance of mold and mildew that might be lurking in your brand new home - behind the drywall…before you ever move in. Modular for me Baby!

[@bch5513]

Yes. Completely dependent on the site and builder. Soooo many things can go wrong. My dad was a foreman and "knew" who to use. None of them were fast but they ALL did great jobs. As an example I remember to this day (and I was 14 when he built it in the early 90s) the dry wallers stops what they were doing and asked "who the h&ll framed this cause even the closets are PERFECTLY square , exactly on measurement, and plum , etc.😅 They were dumbfounded.. as they should have been. Dude was a perfectionist. Took longer than most ( and my dad knew this) and many didn't like to use because he took longer but he knew WHY. And he was ok with that. And he was reasonable on price too.. super old school dude.

[@markw999]

And who are your subs? LOL. Are they even half sober? I had 3 houses behind me that sat for 8 months wrapped in Tyvek. Eventually that wrap was flapping in the breeze as weather took it's toll. I wouldn't have wanted to buy any of them.

[@lizzieb6311]

@@markw999 Lol?at my comment? Can you even READ? Apparently NOT because I said I’d take modular over site built homes hands down….and TYVEK is absolute third rate…if I were building conventionally I’d use either a fluid applied or self adhered moisture barrier or AVB. Before you make a snide remark you should actually read the comment before hitting send lest you appear to be a fool. 🤡

[@lizzieb6311]

@@bch5513 The quality of your Dads builds are sadly few and far between. You are right to be very proud of your Dads work…it’s a rarity anymore. My primary concern is the fact that lumber and many other building materials are oftentimes sitting exposed - uncovered - in rainy weather for long periods of time. Then, partially dry framing is quickly covered with drywall on the interior, or inferior house wraps which trap the moisture in the wood. Everything looks lovely and new….until the mold appears. And it eventually does.

[@peted31bgn]

I have been researching modular homes for almost 3 years now. After watching your videos in comparing stick-built modular. Modular homes are built then a conventional stick built home. The fact that the most modular home company will do almost 90% of the work for you. From obtaining the permits to final cleanup. I am very proud and excited to say that this fall we will be purchasing a modular home. There are so many benefits to a modular home that is too big to list here. Just the fact that the house is built so energy efficient that it will take very little to heat or cool to home. And the fact that you can basically build the house anyway you like it. Looking forward to starting the build of my retirement home.

[@stevegordon5243]

Back in 1996 my wife and I had a 1500 sq ft modular home built by Wausau Homes in WI. We have lived in it ever since and have had no issues with anything. Of course we've done normal maintenance and replaced the shingles once since then but the house itself has been quality built and energy efficient as well. Not as efficient as nowadays mind you but still very efficient. Also, the builder quoted us a price that he said was solid and actually even came out a little cheaper in the end! I would highly recommend modular homes to anyone!

[@ecossearthur]

Update: We are looking at buildling in Mid Tennessee.... Builder is on Pennsalvania... Sales company is based in New York state! Find the right sales outlet, the right builder.... We are blessed that we also have a custom precast basement builder locally! All tied in together!!! 5 star

As a builder I visited a modular home factory and I was impressed by what I saw. It wasn't for me in my type of home builds but for a standard home I agree it's cool.

[@KristinaSmallhorn]

I know you know how the RED TAPE ruins the timeline!

[@dmu9736]

You also avoid dishonest contractors up charging you for everything like claiming that they will be using a superior grade of paint and then ordering "contractor's grade" at the paint store for example AND not wasting half the day/week running to the stores to purchase said items while they eat breakfast lunch and dinner on your time and juggle several jobs while they are supposed to be working on yours dragging out the completion time. I think the modular builders are far better and most are using thicker lumber than stick-built homes made of 2 x 4 wall studs vs 6" for modular. The only thing about this review that surprised me was that the flooring, lighting, switch plates, and countertops don't come already installed with just the seams between the units needing to be finished onsite. Modular companies I've visited install that stuff in the factory and deliver the units completed save for the seams. It seems to me that the way the builder shown in the video waits to install those things on-site is leading to more labor cost and time wasted to finish off the interior. I've seen videos of a jet plane engine being backed up to about 30 to 50 feet from to a mfg/modular home = tornado force winds and the only damage it sustained was a few shingles blew off.

[@sparksmcgee6641]

Nobody is using 2x4 for framing except the gulf states.

[@LandNfan]

While not exactly a modular, our 66 year old home is a National pre-fab. Factory built wall panels erected on a site built floor platform. The whole subdivision is made up of these, about evenly split between full basements like ours, crawl spaces, and slab-on-grade construction. Ours has been improved several times, most notably by the addition of fourth bedroom with en-suite bath and a remodel of the kitchen to improve the layout and get rid of the original metal cabinetry. Other improvements include thermally efficient windows and residing with vinyl. We aren’t the original owners, but we have been here 43 years and I can tell you the basic structure is just as sound as the day the builder handed over the keys in 1958.

[@davidcenteau-depina6192]

I love modular home building. Working in traditional construction you're subject to weather stoppages and here in the south, the heat slows you down in the summer. A friend's backyard developed a fairly large sinkhole. The house is 20 years old. I had a feeling it was where they dumped construction debris. We got a backhoe and dug it up. All the wood waste had rotted away leaving some bricks, cinderblocks, and other debris. We cleaned it out, filled it in, and put down some grass seed.

[@makidominguez5856]

The misconceptions surrounding modular builds are borne by a lack of understanding of home construction itself. This and the modular negative agenda that nearly all of the big name, traditional home builders have engaged in, has mislead the general public with false propaganda. About the only drawback to modular construction is in their logistics, not their quality, value proposition or design aesthetic. Modulars have a limited range of delivery and even within that range, not all locations are accessible. For these and only these reasons alone modular cosntruction is not a one size fits all solution. The solution without question is a hybrid modular approach.

[@EmilyGloeggler7984]

It is sad that the misconceptions surrounding the pro modular propagandists who will sink to sleezy tactics on par with the big corporations. History has born out that natural homes and natural home builders when well mainted last longer than claimed, and their overhyped quality claims which have been debunked by independent non-big business affiliated sources. At least, you admit some of the other serious flaws with modular homes though you do downplay the other issues about them. To sum it up, they are not a permanent one size fits all solution.
