Panelized Building Shells for Contractors in WNC
Deltec Homes is excited to announce that it is now offering its exceptional quality panelized product to the Western North Carolina market for homes of ANY design. Deltec has been building round, panelized homes for 40 years to customers seeking extraordinary strength and excellent energy efficiency. Local builders are now able to take advantage of this product in the homes they build.
Panelized homes involves pre-building the walls into large sections and using pre-engineering floors and roofs to provide the shell of a home that can be dried-in in a matter of 1 to 2 weeks. While panelization is not a new concept, Deltec is taking the guesswork out of building faster, better, and more energy efficient.
The benefits of building with a panelized system are many:
- Faster Installation A typical home may take 5-6 weeks to stick build, but with a panelized system the home can be dried-in in 2 weeks. This means your customers are happy because they move into their home more quickly, and the builder gets paid earlier and faster to help cash flow. When windows and siding are factory installed, the time savings are even more dramatic.
- Exceptional Quality Building in a controlled environment allows for tighter tolerances and walls that are straight and true. We buy lumber direct from the mill and are able deliver outstanding quality lumber.
- Increased Durability A home that prefabricated and then dried-in in two weeks has much less exposure to the elements which promotes the longer life of the building.
- Green from the Start All building components made by Deltec are built with 100% renewable energy. In addition, our extensive reuse and recycling operations mean that we produce 78% less waste than a typical stick built home. Deltec has many options for improving the energy efficiency of building envelope for builders looking to take green to the next level. Practices such as advanced framing, continuous rigid foam, tuning windows and overhangs for passive solar design allow us to help you build at the level of green you want.
- Added Value Panelizing a home with Deltec delivers a superior product without a superior price tag. In most cases, the additional cost of the panelized shell is offset by labor savings in the installation process. The bottom line is you're getting a better product for the same price. In addition, you can save on interest expenses and tipping fees.
- Simplified Process Imagine - we do all the work to plan your home's structure utilizing our in-house engineering department. All you do is schedule your framing crews and two weeks later, the shell is complete. This makes your job easier.
- Locally Made Deltec has been building panelized homes in Asheville for over 40 years. We want to partner with you to continue to grow our local economy.
- Ideal for Steep Sites On many sites in North Carolina, stick building is made much more challenging by the steep hills on which we build. Panelizing the walls means that framing crews do not need to work on challenging sites to install the sheathing.
