IMS offers a one-year warranty for all workmanship on our builds. In addition, we will provide you with the manufacturers’ warranties for any components installed (air conditioner, refrigerator, etc.).
Will my container rust?
NO! Containers now are made of non-corrosive Corten steel and painted accordingly. This gives the overall structure a very high rust resistance.
Is my container considered mobile?
No, however single container homes can be moved easily off of their foundation to another location. Once you start getting into multiple container design, it becomes much more difficult.
