Modular Homes

Have you ever driven by a new subdivision construction site on a rainy day and seen all those piles of lumber getting drenched? Did you know that wood will warp if it is not completely dry when it is used in construction?

All modular are manufactured in sections at climate controlled manufacturing facilities. They are also designed by computers so that each of their individual sections fits together with the utmost precision, and because builders who use modular house can order their materials in bulk and at a significant discount, modular are also less expensive than traditionally constructed ones.

Durability Of Modular Homes
If you don't believe that it can possibly be as solid as a traditional one, consider that when the sections of your homesleave the factory, they must be crane-loaded onto the shipping trailer. They'll also be crane-loaded into place on their foundation when they get to your building site. Have you ever wondered how well a traditional home would handle being crane-loaded onto anything?

Energy Efficiency Of Modular Homes
If you've ever been in a mobile home which sweltered in the summer and required everyone to huddle under blankets in the winter, don't think that a home is in any way similar. Each section of a Modular Homes is made of individual blocks engineered to join so precisely that the finished structure is virtually impervious to outside drafts.

Modular homes are also great for keeping warm or cool inside air from escaping, so their energy efficiency is unparalleled. And no matter where modular house are manufactured, they are required to meet the energy rating standards, as well as the zoning and building codes, of the municipalities in which they will be constructed.

If you're still not impressed, keep in mind that British Petroleum, during the construction of the Alaska oil pipeline, housed its workers in homes on Alaska's North Slope, where the average yearly temperature is 9.7F and wind gusts of 80 MPH frequently led to a wind chill of -50F.
