Container homes vs traditional homes: which one is better? Are container homes more worth it than traditional homes? Let’s find out!
With the Covid-19 happening, a lot of families have been looking for cheaper housing alternatives to conventional, stick-built houses. One of the more affordable ways to build a house is through shipping container homes.
But are houses built with containers worth it? Does it stand against the engineering aspects, strength, integrity, safety and cost of traditional homes built with concrete and wood?
While the main contender is usually the cost being cheaper, there are a lot of other aspects you should consider in houses built out of containers. We’re here to answer those important questions.

Magandang araw po. Magkano po ang presyo ng isang basic 20ft pre fab container home na itatayo sa Sagaba, Sto.Domingo, Nueva Ecija? Gaano po katagal ang assembly o construction time (Malinis at ready na po ang construction site) kung itatayo po sa February next year?
Hello Sir, let’s talk through email po. We will contact you. Thank you.
Planning to build a house by the beach. The house design to that area is colonial or Hampton Design
House. Can it be done Pre Fab? If so, how much should it cost for a 115
Sq.meters? Should be a 2 storey house with balcony.
Hi Lorlyn,
Yes, it is possible to make a Hapton-inspired design using prefab containers. I imagine it will be a box-type beach house with an exterior decking. As for the cost, it will depend on the scope of the package and the materials you want to use for the exterior and interior finish. We can communicate further through email.
