Modular vs. Prefab Buildings: What&#;s the Difference?
Mobile Modular provides buildings that can be considered prefab and modular in nature. While these terms may seem interchangeable, they are not the same thing. While all modular buildings are prefabricated, not all prefabricated buildings are modular. Mobile Modular&#;s modular, prefabricated buildings are a cost-effective modular space solution for various sectors.
Prefab refers to a pre-made individual piece or part of an overall building structure. Prefab structures and materials are always created off-site in a climate-controlled factory environment, ensuring unmatched quality. Prefabricated materials or modules are later transported to an on-site location for installation.
Examples of prefabricated structures used in modular construction include:
Modular buildings are fully encapsulated, volumetric modules made out of prefabricated materials. The use of pre-made components accelerates the modular construction process.

Thinking about adding storage or another living area to your backyard? Storage sheds provide ideal solutions to your needs, but you&#;ll need to decide whether to opt for a prefab or custom-built model.

Many people who need utility buildings may opt for a prefab shed. These options cut the waiting time because they are already built and only require delivery and installation of a foundation on your lot.
The biggest benefit of choosing a prefab shed is the price. These tend to cost less than custom sheds. However, you must understand that over time, a prefab shed may cost you more, depending on how long you want to keep your utility building. Prefab sheds can last for 20 years. While this sounds great, it is not nearly as long of a life as you&#;ll get from a custom-built storage shed.
Additionally, the biggest concern when ordering a prefab storage building is getting the structure into place on your lot. It must travel from the dealer to your home. On the way, it sits on the back of a truck where highway speeds generate storm-force winds that can buffet the structure and wear it down even before it reaches your home. You will also need to have space to get the shed from the delivery truck to your designated spot. Depending on your lot layout, this may not be very easy.
While prefab sheds have some drawbacks, they are popular. You may want a prefab shed if you:
A prefab utility building plays a part in the lot plans of many people, but it is not the best option for everyone. If you have more specific needs, you should consider a custom shed.
If you are looking for a shed at a great price point that is already built, check out our selection of lot models.
While some people opt for the convenience of prefab storage sheds, you shouldn&#;t discount customized sheds. Because builders construct the shed on your site from the foundation up to the roof, you have complete control over everything used in their design and construction. With a prefab, you have to live with the choices of a company for the appearance of a shed for as long as the structure lasts. However, by designing your own storage shed, you get to pick the color, design, and overall style to fit your preferences and the style of your home and lot.
Since utility buildings can last for decades, you will want to make sure that you can get the most out of your investment. By customizing the shed to your specifics, you never need to compromise on the features you want.
Another perk of custom-designed storage sheds is the high level of construction work used for them. For instance, built-on-site buildings use the same long-lasting materials and building conventions used in home construction and carry similar warranties. High-quality materials such as Owens Corning algae-resistant shingles with a 25-year warranty and premium LP SmartSide siding with a 5/50 year guarantee ,which is also Residential Grade siding.
Thanks to the high-quality construction materials used in custom-built storage sheds, those buildings can potentially last up to 50 years or more. So, even if the initial cost of a customized option is higher than a prefab unit, you&#;ll spend less per year over the life of the shed.
Custom-built sheds are the better option over prefab if you:
Customized storage sheds give you more freedom to select every aspect of the building, from the ground to the roof. Choosing this type of storage building gives you total control over your investment, ensuring you&#;ll enjoy it for years to come.
When choosing a shed for your yard, you will need to make multiple decisions that impact whether a prefab or custom shed works best for you. The following questions can help you to get the right shed:
Note the answers to these questions because you will need them when you speak to a storage shed provider to get a utility building that meets your needs.
