What are prefab walls?
Prefab walls are factory assembled based on your building plans, and enable your construction project to begin regardless of the weather. A prefab wall can be up to10’ (3 m) tall by 40’ (12.2 m) long. Once delivered to the construction site, the prefab walls are installed with a crane. Each prefab wall is ready to receive interior and exterior finishes as well as the floors and the roof, based on specifications. We can create your prefab walls with any of our ICF products.
