Precast insulated panels: has anybody used them for one-off houses?

[MariaD]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has experience building their houses with HiTherm precast insulated panels.

I know they're commonly used in large building projects and not typically for one-off house projects. However, I recently came across a post in a Facebook group where someone shared their experience. According to this person, the cost is comparable to using bricks.

The advantages seem to strongly favor this construction method.

Nope, don’t go there unless you are the type that just likes to do stuff just to prove it can be done. 
there are many proven ways to build a house, looking for something new is just silly, you will struggle to get trades to do it, you will struggle to get a mortgage, and also to insure it, as well as structural engineer to design other bits around it. 
 

im aware of the product as it’s used extensively to build commercial buildings, and I did a bit of that previously.

Says company selling it.

No, it's for a different scale of building, and had plenty of cons.
