In such cases, modular walls allow you a lot of flexibility. “Our customers are constantly making changes in their facilities and going with an A-WALL system allows them to add on, reconfigure, and make those changes easily and as needed over time.” Carl says. Additionally, this flexibility saves you money as you don’t have to spend on constructing entirely new, permanent walls and structures every time you make a change to space.
Building system companies will tell you that these walls are also easy to manufacture and assemble. As a result, you can complete the job with minimal labor which translates to cost savings!
Additionally, the use of a modular system allows you to have more control over and understanding of your construction spend because the costs are clear upfront. “There’s not a lot of surprises when using modular and temporary wall systems. Because you’re purchasing a pre-engineered building, you know the cost when we quote the job. You have a clear materials cost and installation costs and those costs don’t change,” Carl tells us. Plus, when using A-WALL Building Systems, you aren’t dealing with multiple subcontractors, meaning yet another unknown (the reliability of an additional party) is eliminated because A-WALL installs the modular system, too.
It is worth mentioning that most modular walls come with an extended warranty. In the long term, if your building need maintenance or repair, you don’t have to shell out extra money out of pocket.
