How Much Does a Prefab Home REALLY Cost?

Dreaming of a new home but overwhelmed by traditional construction costs? Prefabricated homes are gaining popularity as a potentially more affordable and faster alternative. But just how much do they cost?

This guide will break down the various factors that influence the cost of prefab homes, helping you understand what to expect and plan your budget accordingly.

Typically prefabricated homes are made of mild steel while some companies are also using LGSF Technology. While mild steel is a commodity LGSF structures need specific machinery for manufacturing. LGSG raw material is cheaper than mild steel however the capital cost makes the prices equal or higher to mild steel. Typically the cost per sft for LGSF or mild steel structure will be ₹600 to ₹800 per sft.

The roof and wall materials are typically Galvalume sheets that can be corrogated, standing seam being the most expensive is widely used in europe and usa. All the sidings typically cost around ₹200 per sft.

That brings your bare structure of prefab home to a cost of ₹1000 per sft .

Walls are the most expensive part of a prefab home and typically range between ₹300 to ₹600 per sft depending on the finishes, insulation levels and claddings.

That gets the total price of a prefabricated home to roughly ₹2000 per sft to ₹3000 per sft with interiors.
