California Is Rebuilding. Could Modular Help Build It Faster?
As Los Angeles communities continue recovering from devastating wildfires, prefab and factory-built housing are becoming part of the rebuilding conversation.
A recent Los Angeles Times report highlighted builders using factory production to create homes for properties affected by the Palisades and Eaton fires—showing how modern prefab construction can combine speed, efficiency and thoughtful design.
This is exactly why the conversation around modular construction is changing.
At Roof and Realm, we see modular development as more than a faster way to build. It's an opportunity to rethink how California creates housing—from individual homes and ADUs to multifamily communities.
More work completed in controlled environments

The future of California housing won't be solved with one approach—but modular construction can be an important part of it.
