What if we could build affordable homes in days, not months—with minimal waste and maximum sustainability? Affordable housing is one of the most pressing issues in cities worldwide, and 3D printed homes may be the innovative solution we’ve been waiting for.

On this Holmes on Homes Podcast episode, Mike Holmes sits down with Randy Janes from Wave of the Future 3D and Murray Pound, Owner and President of Generations Master Builder to discuss how 3D printing can be used to create tiny homes, how does 3D printing help build homes faster, and what are the benefits of 3D printing for affordable housing. 3D printing offers a sustainable solution, to address the affordable housing crisis, especially in Canada, that not only is more efficient and reduces waste but also lowers carbon emissions compared to traditional construction methods.

But what challenges lie ahead? We’ll dive into how zoning laws, public perception, and building codes may impact the widespread adoption of this technology. We’ll also talk about the reliability and sturdiness of 3D-printed materials, and how builders can incorporate this cutting-edge technology into their projects moving forward.

Could this new way of building be the answer to the affordable housing crisis? Tune in to find out.
