So you have surely seen the commercials suggesting a car for the holidays; how about a home for the holidays. Ok, that is a little extreme, and it won’t be built by the holidays, but you can build a new home in New England in the winter.

The best advantage to building a new home in the winter around here is the lack of lead time. If you have wanted to build a new home, this may be the perfect time. Many people are discouraged about building in the winter because of the weather. Inevitably, snow and wind will affect the supplies and cause labor delays.

Here is the good news; weather is irrelevant in modular construction. The individual modules are constructed indoors in a factory, and are then transported to your building site. The home is assembled that day, and within a few days, the home is sided and “buttoned up”. When you build modular, your home  is protected from the elements from start to finish.
