Green Homes are built with newer methods

Green Home:
Looking for a green home options? System-built homes have an
eco-friendly advantage over site-built homes from the moment construction
begins. Being factory built, it's easier to control the amounts of waste
created and recycled throughout the homebuilding process. Building materials
are precut with system-built homes, significantly reducing waste by up to 70
percent.

You might be asking yourself about the quality. Modular buildings are built to a higher level of quality than site built structures, in part because they must be able to withstand the stresses of transport. Joints are tighter, fasteners more accurately applied and material is cut with more exactness.

A focus on strong, efficient homes is the right thing to do for the environment. Building to high levels of energy efficiency helps conserve natural resources, while building more durable homes reduces the impact of scrapped building materials on landfills.

Red Tree has a great opportunity to lead this effort. The efficiencies offered by a production line and the natural ability to minimize waste by building in a controlled environment give modular a head start toward achieving high levels of green building and energy efficiency.

Green homes have definitely come a long way. Today, green prefab homes are built much like that of modular homes and shipped to the site.

These types of green homes offer a lot of benefits. The greatest benefit is their cost, which is usually far less than other traditional green homes. Secondly, they are constructed very quickly. The last benefit (and most important) benefit is that these homes are better for the environment.

Definitely a great option for anyone considering a green home.
