Frequently asked questions
Answers to what people ask most before building a house.
Didn’t find your answer?
Write to us and we will reply quickly.
Can I have the same or a similar house built?
Yes. We can use this 50 m² 2+1 house as a starting point and adapt its size, room layout, facade and roof to your plot. The Get a Quote button on this page adds the project name to the form automatically, so you don’t have to describe which house you liked.
How well is a prefabricated house insulated against heat and noise?
The exterior wall panels of our prefabricated houses are 10 cm thick. The panels are filled with 16 kg/m³ EPS foam, and the roof is insulated with stone wool. Together they keep the house warm in winter, cool in summer and quieter inside.
Can you live in a prefabricated house in winter, or is it only for summer?
You can live in it all year round. The insulation system is designed for four-season use, and each house is produced with the climate of its site in mind. If you only need a summer house, a simpler specification is also possible.
What is included in a turnkey prefabricated house?
Our turnkey work usually includes:
- Wall panels, steel connection parts, ceiling boards and insulation, roofing materials
- A steel front door, panel interior doors, PVC balcony doors, and fitted windows and glazing
- Interior and exterior paint
- Electrical and plumbing installation inside the house, with fixtures
Extras such as the concrete base or kitchen cabinets are added to the quote depending on the project. Your quote lists exactly what is included.
How long does it take to build a prefabricated house?
Once the concrete base is ready, a single-story prefabricated house is usually completed in around 15 days and a two-story one in about 30 days. This covers production and assembly, and it can vary with the floor area, the materials chosen and the weather. The exact time is stated in your quote.
Are prefabricated houses earthquake resistant?
Prefabricated houses are lightweight: the walls are factory-made panels joined with steel connection parts. Because the building is light, the forces acting on it during an earthquake are much smaller than on a heavy structure. As with any building, a solid concrete base and correct assembly also matter, and our own team carries out both.
Can a prefabricated house be taken down and moved?
Yes. Thanks to its panel system, a prefabricated house can be dismantled and rebuilt somewhere else. Dismantling, transport and a new concrete base are planned as a separate job, and the permit rules of the new site apply as well.
How long does a prefabricated house last?
It would not be honest to give a single number: lifespan depends on the quality of the concrete base and roof, the materials used and maintenance. With simple upkeep, such as repainting the exterior and checking the roof and windows on time, a prefabricated house serves well for many years.
Why are your prices not listed on the website?
The price depends on the model and floor area, the number of stories, facade, roof and interior materials, whether a concrete base is needed and where the house will be built. A single list price would be misleading, so we don’t publish one. Fill in the Get a Quote form or message us on WhatsApp (+90 545 856 56 60) and we will prepare a quote for you.
Do I need a building permit for a prefabricated or steel house?
Yes. Being prefabricated or light steel does not exempt a house from permits. For a permanent home, the plot must be zoned for building, and a building permit is issued by the municipality (or the provincial special administration outside municipal limits). An occupancy permit follows once the house is finished. Rules differ from plot to plot, so we recommend checking your plot’s zoning status with the local authority before you start.
Can I build a house on agricultural land?
Building a home on agricultural land is not freely allowed, and a prefabricated or steel house is no exception. In some cases the provincial or district directorate of agriculture may permit an agricultural building such as a vineyard house; the conditions depend on the size and type of the land and have changed in recent years. Please check the current rules with the directorate before deciding.
Is a foundation (concrete base) needed, and do you build it?
Yes, the house is built on a level, solid concrete base. We can build the concrete base for you and add it to your quote. If you prefer your own builder, we share the dimensions and details with you.
Which regions do you work in?
We mainly work in the Black Sea region: most of our completed projects are in Samsun, Sinop and Ordu, and we have a showroom in Sinop. We also build in other provinces; tell us where the house will go and we will look at transport and assembly together.
What information do you need to prepare a quote?
The province and district where the house will be built, the approximate floor area and number of rooms, whether it will be single or two-story, and any model you liked. The Get a Quote form asks for these in a few short steps. Sending a photo of your plot or a plan you have over WhatsApp speeds things up.
