What to Look for When Choosing a Prefabricated House Company
The prefabricated house sector in Turkey has grown rapidly in recent years, with dozens of companies entering the market. In this competitive environment, distinguishing quality from poor workmanship has become increasingly important for buyers.
The first step in choosing a reliable prefab company is to find out whether the company has its own production facility. Companies that only act as intermediaries often keep prices high while neglecting quality control. Manufacturers that produce in their own factory offer both cost advantages and direct process oversight.
At AYD Prefabrik, we manufacture light steel frame prefabricated homes entirely in-house at our modern production facility in Silivri. This allows us to directly monitor material quality and craftsmanship on every project.
- Check whether the company has its own factory.
- Research reference projects and customer reviews online.
- Ask to visit a completed project you can see in person.
- Request a written technical specification before signing any contract.
Certifications and Technical Standards
Although regulatory oversight in the prefabricated home sector has tightened in recent years, certified and uncertified companies still operate side by side. Documents proving compliance with TSE standards are the most basic indicator of a company's reliability.
The thickness of the steel profiles, coating type, and connection details used in light steel structures determine the lifespan and durability of the building. Structural calculations complying with earthquake regulations and soil survey reports are documents that reliable companies provide as standard.
Requesting that insulation, fire resistance, and waterproofing materials carry CE or TSE certification is the most effective way to prevent potential problems from the outset.
- Request TSE-certified profiles and materials with documentation.
- Obtain a structural calculation report compliant with earthquake regulations.
- Prefer CE-certified insulation and cladding materials.
- Ask whether the company provides support during the building permit process.
- A 10-year structural warranty should be standard.
Price Comparison: Don't Fall for the Cheap Quote Trap
Prefabricated house prices can vary significantly between companies. However, most buyers eventually learn the hard way that the lowest offer is not always the best choice. Differences such as aluminium instead of steel, thinner profiles, or uncertified insulation materials can add serious costs to a quote that initially looks attractive.
Reliable prefab companies offer turnkey pricing: every item — from foundation preparation to electrical and plumbing, interior cladding, and painting — is written into the contract. Low quotes with hidden cost items exceed the budget before the project is complete.
At AYD Prefabrik, every quote we provide includes a comprehensive technical specification and a full turnkey cost breakdown. Our clients know exactly what they are paying for from the first day of the project to the last.
- Request a turnkey quote and compare line items individually.
- Confirm that foundation, transport, and installation costs are included in the offer.
- Material brands and profile thicknesses must be stated in the quote.
- Payment plan and project timeline must be clearly defined in the contract.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many prefabricated house companies are there in Turkey?
There are more than 200 prefabricated house companies operating in Turkey. However, only a small fraction of these have their own production facilities — the rest act as intermediaries. Choosing a company that manufactures in its own factory provides advantages in both quality and price.
How can I compare prefabricated house companies?
Visit reference projects in person, compare technical specifications, request TSE and CE certificates, and obtain turnkey price quotes. Comparing based on price per square metre alone can be misleading.
Which provinces does AYD Prefabrik serve?
AYD Prefabrik provides transport and installation services to all provinces in Turkey from its production facility in Silivri. We have strong reference projects across the Marmara Region, particularly in Istanbul, Tekirdag, Kocaeli, and Bursa.
