Prefab House Models and Prices

What is a prefab house?

A prefab house is a house whose wall, roof and floor elements are made to size in a factory, carried to the plot in parts and assembled within a few days. With no formwork, concrete pouring or curing time, it is built much faster than a reinforced concrete house. Because it is made in a production hall unaffected by the weather, every house reaches the same dimensions and quality.

We bring the house to your plot by truck and assemble it with our own team. When we hand it over, the windows are fitted, the installations are laid and the paint is done.

Single storey or duplex?

Both are made with the same materials and the same building method; the difference is how you live in them. The choice usually depends on the width of the plot and who will live in the house.

Topic	Single storey	Duplex
Plot needed	As large as the footprint, a wider plot	About half the footprint for the same m²
Stairs	None	Yes, an internal staircase
Suits	Older people, families with small children, summer houses	Large families, narrow plots
Day / night areas	On the same floor	Living room downstairs, bedrooms upstairs
Heating	On one level, spreads evenly	Warm air rises, the upper floor warms up faster

In budget terms, the price per m² falls as the house gets bigger in both types. Every house has a kitchen, a bathroom and installations; the larger the house, the more square metres these fixed costs are spread over.

How many m² of prefab house do I need?

A practical rule: 20–25 m² per person gives a comfortable living space. The table below shows which size suits whom; current prices are in the list above.

Size	Rooms	Suits
40–60 m²	1+1, 2+1	Single person, couple, weekend or garden house
60–90 m²	2+1, 3+1	Family of 3–4, permanent home for retirees
90–120 m²	3+1	Family of 4–5, those who want a guest room
Over 120 m²	3+1, 4+1	Large family, a study, the need for two bathrooms

How is a prefab house made?

Load-bearing structure

The frame of the house is built from galvanised steel profiles. The galvanised coating protects the steel against rust. The profiles are cut to size and joined in the factory; only bolted connections are made on the plot.

Walls and insulation

The outer walls are sandwich panels clad on both faces: a weather-resistant facade board outside, thermal insulation in the middle and a paintable inner surface inside. Interior partition walls are thinner. You can see the wall thicknesses and cladding materials in the technical table of each model.

Roof

The roof is built on steel trusses and covered with painted trapezoidal sheet as standard, or with metal tile or shingle on request. Insulation laid in the roof space reduces heat in summer and heat loss in winter.

Installations

Electrical and water lines run inside the walls, concealed. Socket, switch and light fitting positions are set in advance according to the plan. Wet areas (bathroom, kitchen) are handed over waterproofed.

NextWhat should I check on the plot?

What should I check on the plot?

• Zoning status: Get a zoning status certificate from the municipality. It states whether a house may be built, how many storeys are allowed and the setback distances from the road and the neighbours.
• Ground: The house sits on a flat, solid concrete slab. Sloping land may need a retaining wall or fill; these are not included in the price.
• Access: The house parts arrive by truck and are lifted off by crane. A truck and a crane must be able to reach the plot; on narrow village roads, transfer to a smaller vehicle may be needed.
• Utilities: Find out in advance where the electricity, water and sewer connection points are. Grid connection and subscription procedures are not included in the price.

NextBuilding permit and occupancy permit

Building permit and occupancy permit

Under zoning law, a permanently installed prefab house is no different from a reinforced concrete house. The steps are:

1. A zoning status certificate is obtained from the municipality.
2. Architectural, structural, electrical and mechanical projects are drawn and submitted to the municipality.
3. Once the building permit is issued, the concrete slab is poured and the house is assembled.
4. When the building is finished, the occupancy permit (iskân) is obtained with the building inspection report.

We also provide the project and permit service separately for customers who want it; its fee is not included in the house price.

NextMaintaining a prefab house

Maintaining a prefab house

A prefab house needs little maintenance, but regular maintenance. The exterior paint and silicone joints should be checked and renewed every few years. Clearing leaves and mud from the roof gutters stops water spilling onto the facade. The most important point is that the ground under the house does not collect water; rainwater should drain away from the house.

NextPrefab or reinforced concrete?

Prefab or reinforced concrete?

Topic	Prefab house	Reinforced concrete house
Build time	Production + a few days of assembly	Takes months
Price	Known from the start, written in the list	May change as construction progresses
Weight	Light, low load on the ground	Heavy, high foundation cost
Portability	Can be taken down and rebuilt elsewhere	Cannot be moved
Changes	The plan is fixed in the factory	Changes on site are easier

The biggest advantage of a prefab house is that the price and the time are known from the start. Reinforced concrete comes forward for multi-storey and custom-designed buildings.
