HI ALL
WITH THE SHORTAGE OF HOUSES YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD BE BUILDING PREFABS AS A POSSIBLE ANSWER TO IT. THE ONES BUILD IN THE 1940S HAVE LASTED OVER 60 YEARS WITH MODERN METHODS I SHOULD IMAGINE THEY WOULD BE MUCH CHEAPER & BETTER THAN THE CONVENTIONAL HOUSES. ANDY CAPP
Andy, I've worked in many countries building prefab homes, and I find the ones from the states are great, low cost housing, good insulation, and there are some, even I would like to live in, the best and the fastest system is they build the frame first, then put the roof on, then the brickes start the outside skin, while the other trades start on the insides, and very soon you have a house you can live in,
Even Brad Pitt, has started a company building some prefab houses, to help the people in New Orleans who lost their homes some years ago,and they are modern and well designed too, the cost of a prefab is much lower than a standard built house, J2
