For a lot of house hunters, the idea of shipping container homes is nothing short of distasteful. Container homes are often thought of as shoddy, primitive, and ugly. But the industry is changing. Contain Homes, with their cutting-edge design and sustainable functionality, are here to stay.
But as innovative as the concept is, at its heart, a Contain Home is just that: a home. It is built for you just as a standard sticks-and-bricks house is built. What’s special about Contain Homes is not how they are made, but what they are made of.
In our builds, we only use Intermodal Steel Building Units (ISBU), which are designed for a life of adventure. These shipping containers are made of a unique, non-corrosive Corten steel, which is cleaned and coated with a durable enamel paint to match your ideal design aesthetic.
The sheer strength of the containers themselves provides a nearly impenetrable barrier against extreme weather conditions. Occasionally you’ll even see these containers used as storm shelters. So regardless of the climate or weather patterns that may hammer at your new home, you can rest assured that you will be protected.
Of course, while some modern designs incorporate the containers’ inherent industrial look, oftentimes our builds are made to look like traditional houses. We can cover your container with wood, stucco, vinyl siding, and all of the other options available to those building a more traditional house. You won’t even be able to tell the house is made from containers.
And that’s just the outside.
The interior finishes of Contain Homes are comparable to any modern, sustainable home on the market. We finish each home with basic appliances, HVAC systems, full bathrooms and kitchens, and whatever other features you decide to add. And of course, you are able to personalize and customize the home to fit your ideal design.
Contain Homes are tough. The mods we build are made for those who are looking to live their lives to the fullest. Looking to be protected against the rain, wind, and snow while still having a home with advanced technology and a stunning design.
