Modular Home Designs from Signature Modular Home Manufacturer
Modular homes offer consumers quality construction methods that take advantage of technology. Contrary to a conventionally built home, which is assembled on the home site, piece by piece, and exposed throughout the entire construction process, modular homes are constructed in segments (called “modules”) in a climate-controlled factory.
Modular House Construction and Factory Built Homes
Before a modular home leaves a factory, it is inspected by an independent third-party agency to ensure it meets your state building codes. Built to withstand the rigors of ground transportation and being lifted into place by a crane, many modular homes are typically built to stronger standards than conventional homes. For example, contemporary modular home manufacturers often construct their modular buildings with more framing materials, and utilize multiple engineering methods to fasten their materials.
Once the main modules of your home are constructed in the factory, complete with attached walls, floor, ceiling, wiring, plumbing, and interior fixtures, they are transported to your home site and placed on a permanent foundation by a crane. Most modular buildings can be fully set on-site and weather-tight in as little as one day, depending on the size of the structure.
