Building quality homes since 1975!
About Us
Our dream began in 1975 as a small company with a simple philosophy. We believe structural home elements engineered in a controlled environment provide maximum value and the most enduring results. We aim to exceed the highest standards for energy efficiency and provide superbly beautiful home designs.
Sustainability
We are happy to quote any project from a small cottage build to large-scale commercial projects. We only quote to the exact material needed for your project; we are partnered with Nova Scotia Building Supplies so you are not buying needless supply or “builder fluff”. We recycle all waste here at our plant so you only receive pre-cut or pre-engineered components. This raises our efficiency and saves you from purchasing any wasted material.
What is a Pre-Engineered Wall System?
Pre-Engineered Wall Systems, or Panelization, is a construction method that builds the structural elements of a home in a controlled environment and then ships them to a job site for assembly.
Why choose a Pre-Engineered Wall System?
Save Money: Pre-Engineered Wall Systems can reflect significant cost savings. According to the National Association of Home Builders, “Engineered building components (prefabricated wall systems) typically use 26% less wood products and require 37% less construction time, resulting in significant savings for builders.”
Reduce On-Site Labour: Using a pre-engineered wall system reduces the on-site time needed to construct your project and usually requires a smaller crew than conventional stick framing.
Reduce Waste: Using a pre-engineered wall system significantly reduces construction waste. By using carefully prepared shop drawings construction material is used much more efficiently, reducing site waste by as much as 60%.
Quality: Interhabs technical expertise ensures that you will have top quality pre-engineered wall systems built in a climate-controlled environment. Our panels are delivered on schedule and on budget.
Save Time: Panelization can reduce build time by as much as 60%. Build a typical new home in just 90 days, instead of the conventional 180 – 270 days.
