HOME. FAQs: Can you custom-build my home? Yes. We can build to your specific blueprint specifications. If you would like us to design it and build it, we definitely can. However, final drawings and approval will be the result of your local city officials. Our plans will be the unconfirmed design to your general contractor/engineer who will be able to approve it and /or design it. Will you come and install your container home at my property? Unfortunately, due to the low price and all our buildings are shipped from China, we cannot complete the import to the USA at this time or any part of the world, except Canada.
So, we need you, the buyer to clear customs and have the building(s) delivered to your location. We will help you throughout the process on how to properly and safely deliver your building(s) to your location. We will provide support until your new home is safely placed on your location. I’ve never imported a home from overseas, what’s the process like? First, we need to complete the order through eBay checkout or our website on a mutual price we both can agree on. we also accept T/T bank transfers. Once the payment is confirmed, we will begin the process of designing your unconfirmed floor-plans of the building to you. You can keep the copies for reference as well as when it comes time for the inspection of your new home at your location, you will need to provide additional documents to your local building authorities for total approval for living in the container home.
Duties, local state taxes, terminal fees, brokerage fees and any other fees associated in importing our container homes are the responsibility of the buyer. There is no duty charges on our container homes to the USA or Canada. Only your state tax will be added to the brokerage fees as well as any terminal and transfer fees by the seaport will be charged to you. The buyer is responsible in contacting a local freight/boom truck company to deliver each container from the seaport to the buyer’s location. Please make sure the company is bond-able/insured in case of damage during the short delivery trip.
That should be the extent of the process to import our home to your new or existing location. For more pertinent information, you can go here if you are in the United States of America: Import Guidelines for Internet Purchases Do I need a foundation for your container homes? Yes, a foundation is considered the heart of our container homes due to shifting, moving of dirt/soil and making sure our homes will stand solid for years to come when you have designed a strong foundation.
Some examples we recommend for a foundation are simple 8-12″ wooden square logs on the ground or round wooden 8-12″ long logs on the ground, concrete pier blocks, measured and placed at each corner and/or in the middle, concrete pier blocks with a wooden structure placed in between each pier, a patio deck structure partially with top-board for the deck and no top-board (only wooden deck foundation) for each container to stand on, or a 30’x50′ or longer driveway of concrete slab with a recessed 6″-9″ for the container home to be fitted perfectly within the slab concrete, flat concrete basement measured to size for the containers to stand on or a concrete garage housing below measured to fit the container home on top of it, filling, squaring and sealing it perfectly to size and concealing it to make it a suitable place to live and park your favorite vehicles underneath
Additional steps will be required with a concrete foundation to complete the home to building code specifications. ***These are some of the examples you can plan for with your GC or Engineer.**Examples above are ideas that may or may not be suitable in your area due to codes and violations of the IRC, CEC or any other standard that is governed by the state or province in North America. *Consult with your local building authorities to verify the requirements of building your home properly and fully to the extent of the law. Does your container home come with plumbing and heating? Our container home can be customized to be a RV style plumbing hook up or a professional home plumbing system to connect to your city lines. The sewage system will also be designed to your floor plans or our default system that will be installed.
So please let us know if you want to specify exactly how you would like your plumbing and sewage to be designed in your home. We will ask you after we start our planning of the building to make sure your plans match your layout. We can install a wall-mounted Air Conditioner for each room and for the living room. Each unit covers approximately 10-15K BTU and it is also equipped with a heater. All plumbing and sewage pipes are PVC or ABS and are standard size, 1/2″ for water and up to 4″ for main sewage drain pipes.
Any changes or requirements must be discussed before the planning phase. Additional charges may be added due to the difficulty, material, and labor of the changes that are not discussed before the building of your home. Is your electrical installed by a professional electrician? Yes, our qualified installers will make sure everything is properly installed. 14/3/15A or 12/2/2/15A wires will be used for 110V outlets, lights and switches. 12/3/20A for refrigerator, 10/3 for 240V appliances such as washer/dryer/oven if required. Special requests must be made before the purchase. Any changes to the electrical grid must be calculated properly to avoid problems later in the construction phase. Are your materials Eco-friendly?
Most of our items are ISO standards to the construction industry. That means, our items will not affect your health due to micro contamination of the material we use. For some items that may not be suitable for your living comfort, we can completely change them to your special requirements. For example, we use glass wool, fiberglass, or polystyrene for insulation, if that is not a choice for your arrangement, we can offer hemp-insulated panels or another alternative you would like to recommend. How long will it take to receive my home? Once the full payment clears and the time we prepare for planning, building, and previous buyers who have ordered our homes, the lead time can vary from 30 to 120 days.
Once the construction is completed, the delivery time between Mainland China and North America, specifically the Pacific west coast delivery time is between 25 to 35 days and if you’re in the Atlantic east coast, shipping varies from 30 to 45 days. In Canada such as Vancouver, BC, lead time is also between 25 and 35 days. For other countries, please message us and we will find out the delivery time for your country. Will I have to do anything else after I receive my home? Some preparation work will be required for a fully installed container home. You will be required to assist your freight/boom truck company in moving each container home from the trailer to the foundation. You will be required to check for all damages and defective parts/workmanship of the house during the first 10 days of assembly to make sure everything was delivered properly to your location.
You will be required to fully waterproof the home if purchasing more than 1 container to assemble using backer rod and insulation to fill the gaps in the assembly of the 2 or more containers. You will be required to have your power, water, and sewage connected to your city lines or your off-grid setup. You will be required to complete the partial installation if you purchased one of our solar systems as we cannot install the solar panels and the roof mount rack on the roof during transport. You will be required to build your foundation for the property as we have no control over the planning and surveying of the foundation. You will be required to test and inspect the living space for any problems within the 365 days we offer our warranty on any workmanship and defective parts that may be deemed unusable, unsafe, or broken due to defects.
