One of the greatest advantages of Gradat hybrid prefabricated houses is complete flexibility – not only in the design and the layout of the space, but also in the level of completion of the building. Every investor can choose the specification that best suits their wishes, their budget and their moving-in plans, so that the building process is fully tailored to individual needs.
Gradat can deliver the house as a fully completed home ready to move into, known as the “turnkey” option. In this case all works are entirely finished, including final finishes, floors, walls and every other element of the interior, allowing owners to move into their new home simply and quickly, without having to organise or carry out any further works.
Alternatively, you can opt for a higher shell-and-core (roh-bau) specification, in which the house is entirely finished on the outside, with the structure and the external envelope complete, while the interior fit-out is left to the owner. This option offers greater freedom in the choice of materials and design and in the pace of the interior fit-out, which is particularly appealing to those who wish to shape their space gradually or to take part in the finishing works themselves.
Whichever level of completion is chosen, every Gradat project rests on the same idea: providing a high-quality, durable and functional house that meets the owner’s real needs. The only difference lies in how far the owner is involved in the final stages of construction, while the building standard, the structural quality and the quality of assembly remain equally high in every option. In this way Gradat makes it possible to tailor the route to a home of your own to every client.
Other steps in the building process:
What does the level of completion of a house mean?
The level of completion defines how far the house has been finished at the point of handover. Depending on the option chosen, the house may be entirely finished and ready to move into, or completed up to a certain stage, after which the owner arranges the finishing works.
What does the “turnkey” option include?
The turnkey option means a fully completed house ready to move into. It includes the interior finishing works such as laying floors, finishing walls, installations, fitting sanitary ware and the other elements needed for everyday use of the space.
What is a high shell-and-core (roh-bau) specification?
A high shell-and-core specification means that the structure of the house and the external envelope of the building are complete, while interior finishing works such as floors, tiling or internal linings are arranged later in line with the owner’s wishes.
Can I complete the interior works later according to my own wishes?
Yes. With the high shell-and-core level of completion, the owner can arrange the finishing works independently and adapt the interior to their own design, budget and timetable.
How do I choose the right level of completion?
The choice depends on your budget, on the time you wish to invest in the finishing works and on how involved you want to be in fitting out the interior. The turnkey option offers simplicity, while the high shell-and-core specification gives you greater flexibility in creating your home.
