Prefabrication is an umbrella term referring to the practice of assembling a variety of structural components at a manufacturing site and transporting those sub-assemblies to the construction jobsite upon completion.
The general thinking is that prefab garage construction is less expensive when compared to a stick-built construction approach. The savings is typically on the 10 to 25 percent range. The cost of labor is also less because you don’t have to send carpenters, and electricians to individual construction sites.

Although prefab construction can be more cost efficient than on-site construction, this does not automatically mean it will result in a reduction in overall project cost. However, the costs are often more predictable than with traditional construction methods.
Prefab construction can also contribute significantly to the environmental sustainability of a project. For example, the off-site production of building components allows for optimal control of material use, resulting in both reduced material input and waste compared to traditional on-site
construction.
