Q. What are systems-built homes?   Top

A. Systems-built homes are built in a manufacturing facility in sections then transported to a job site 90-95% complete. Once the home reaches the job site, the sections are lifted onto the home's foundation by crane. A finish crew will then complete the home by tying in the roof sections, siding, and interior finish. Once the home is set, we can complete additional features such as garages, porches, and decks.

Q. Why should I choose a systems-built home over a conventionally built home?   Top

A. The systems-built construction process provides for a superior home. Because we build our homes indoors, in a controlled environment, we are able to maintain a steady and constant work force throughout the year that helps ensure quality measures are maintained. We are able to deliver a home to your site in 8-10 weeks resulting in faster completion time and less interest on your construction loan. Finally, every home is third party inspected in our facility prior to the standard on site inspections.
