Frequently Asked Questions

Are Prefabricated houses guaranteed?: Yes,
Prefabricated houses are under our company’s warranty for 2 years.
Are these structures resistant to hot and cold weather?: Yes, they are. And given that there are a lot of non-insulated concrete buildings, if a ranking of insulation was made for the building stock of our country,
Prefabricated structures would be at the very top of that list.
Are the Prefabricated houses only for summer?: The
Prefabricated houses of Metot Prefabrik are equipped with an insulation system that allows for 4 seasons usage in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd climate regions of Turkey. Climatic characteristics are taken into consideration in the production where the structures will be constructed.
Is a construction license necessary for the Prefabricated structures?: The license is under the initiative of the Municipality, where the building will be established. In our country, there exists no uniform policy on these buildings, it is, therefore, necessary to consult the relevant municipality. The license and all other legal permissions are under the responsibility of the customer, if required.
What is the life-span of the buildings?: The life-span of our buildings is identical to that of the concrete structures, which is between 30-50 years at average. If the outer surfaces of the buildings are coated, then the life-span of the buildings may be extended.
How a Prefabricated building is installed on the ground?: Prefabricated light houses of Metot Prefabrik are installed on priorly prepared concrete ground. The installation of
Prefabricated houses on the concrete ground is made by anchorages or steel dowels.
Can we think that a Prefabricated building provides a higher indoor use area even though the Prefabricated building and a concrete building have the same plan, and why?: Yes, we may think so. Because, due to the thickness of the inner walls, the
Prefabricated building provides a higher net area compared to a concrete building having an identical overall dimension. The wall thickness of the
Prefabricated buildings is 6 cm whereas that of the concrete buildings is usually around 9 cm, 8 cm brick plus plaster. This means that a wall would be thicker by up to 50%, resulting in a reduction in the inner space.
Isn’t it a problem that the walls of the Prefabricated houses are thin in terms of heat and noise insulation, resistance to earthquake, load-bearing capacity and hanging wall panels etc.? Doesn’t it allow the thieves to gain easy access to the buildings?: Prefabricated buildings are produced to be suitable for climate conditions of the first-degree seismic zone and third-degree seismic zone, which are resistant to a snow load of 80 kg/m2 and a wind speed of 90 km/h. There is no obstacle to hang a wall panel, but the use of nails is not advised, instead screws should be used. We may say that
Prefabricated houses are as safe as concrete buildings against thieves.
How many floors can a Prefabricated building be?: Prefabricated buildings can be made as two- or three-floored while it is possible to produce a four-floored building using some special construction techniques.
Does the intermediate floor swing in two-storey buildings?: The static calculations of these buildings are made according to the relevant standards and regulations. This is why there is a tolerable amount of seam in intermediate floors. But, if the client does not want it at all, it is possible to improve comfort conditions, in which case swing is minimized.
What else do you want if the installation is done outside the city?: In the case of out-of-city assemblies of
Prefabricated buildings, the client is responsible for covering accommodation and food expenses of the assembly team.
What is the reason that you don’t perform these works?: First of all, some of these works are actually performed by us; you just pay the price of what is done. For example, it is quite common that transportation is organized by us and the only thing the client should do is to pay the cost of the transportation. If, however, all of the works are performed by us, it will be impossible for us to give a standard price for the customers. For instance, when the client asks the price of a 100 m2 building, we give a net price in response. If all of the above works are performed by us, we should direct various questions to the client such as where the building is to be installed, whether there are suitable places for accommodation in the region and what is the price thereof, what licences are required by the municipalities, and so on. Besides, the clients usually find more reasonable accommodation places for our assembly team in the region, where the building will be installed; this also has a significant effect in this respect.
Is it possible to obtain a mortgage loan for a Prefabricated house?: It is not possible to obtain a mortgage loan, but a consumer loan may be obtained.
Can we have a building constructed in the plan we want?: They can be constructed in the plan you want. For this, you should provide us with the plan you drew, even if manually. In this case, it would provide convenience if a value of 125 cm or the multiples thereof is used for the length of the walls.
Can the Prefabricated buildings be dismantled and re-assembled in another place?: Yes, they can be re-assembled.
What is the average production and installation period of the Prefabricated buildings?: The average production period of the buildings is 2-5 days, and the installation period is 4-8 days as of the shipment of the materials and delivery of the ground concrete. These periods may vary depending on the production and installation workload of the factory.
Can you build Prefabricated houses anywhere?: We are able to perform installation anywhere.
