Manufactured (or prefab) homes use components that have been constructed elsewhere in large numbers. While some wood homes may be considered partially prefabricated, other homes make much heavier use of manufactured components using plastics, fiberboard and fiberglass. Mobile homes are one example of house construction that uses entirely prefabricated parts. Manufactured homes, which buyers can have delivered to a lot anywhere and placed with or without a permanent foundation, also use prefabricated components. Wall finishes are determined at the factory and are completed prior to delivery.
