Prefab Homes
Prefab homes are constructed in a factory and then transported in pre-built sections to your home building site. Nelson's prefab homes consist of panelized wall, roof, and floor components to expedite and simplify the building process of your new home.
What's Included
Prefab homes include pre-cut floor trusses, panelized walls (pre-built and ready to stand up), engineered roof trusses, windows, exterior finish, shingles, insulation, and drywall. Delivery is included in the prefab home price.
Efficient On-site Assembly
Prefabricated homes require 60% less framing time than an on-site built home. Clients do not have to be a small or large-scale builder to purchase a prefab home. However, residential clients will need to find a local contractor to assemble the prefab home or build the package yourself.

Prefab Home Advantages
What are some specific benefits of building a prefab home with Nelson Homes?
Save Money
Prefab homes are more affordable than site-built homes. The primary reason is that prefab homes are constructed in one place allowing for controlled production costs. Plus pre-built panelized systems produce less waste on-site, reduce on-site theft, and minimize on-site damage.
Move In Faster
Prefab homes are built inside a factory and therefore are also typically built in a fraction of the time a site-built home is. There are fewer delays and unforeseen costs. The savings on construction costs are passed on to the consumer.
Skilled Trades
Prefab homes are built by skilled industry professionals in specialized factories across northwestern and central USA.
Top Quality
Because prefab homes are built in a factory, they aren’t exposed to the elements and are not compromised by changes in weather (ex. less warping and twisting).
