Factory Direct

Our factory direct process allows us to build and erect the modules on your foundation.  We’ll work closely with you to ensure that the modules are custom built at the factory to your spec.  You’ll complete the foundation and we’ll come and erect your home!  Typical lead time on this type of project is 2 to 4 months, depending on the complexity of the project and factory backlog.  Normally it takes us 1 to 2 days to set the modules on your foundation and our customers normally take 6 weeks to complete the site work and move into their new home.  

HOW COMPLETED DO THE MODULES COME FROM THE FACTORY?

After we set the modular home on your foundation, your home will be completed as follows:

• Roof: shingling is completed
• Siding, Soffit, Fascia: depending on the design of your home, this will be mostly done, with some completion work required
• Windows: all windows are installed 
• Doors: all doors are installed. Interior door units located on the marriage wall connection are shipped loose to be installed on-site 
• Electrical: all interior wiring is completed.  The electrical panel will be installed in the utility room or ready to be mounted in the basement on-site
• Plumbing: all rough plumbing is completed
• Flooring: depending on the flooring type, the flooring can be fully completed with only seaming required 
• Drywall: all drywall is installed and finished with only the marriage seam to be installed onsite
• Insulation: completed

OK YOU HAVE MY ATTENTION.. BUT CAN I CUSTOMIZE THE HOME?

Our modular homes are fully customizable with many different styles and designs, including: modern, craftsman, farmhouse, victorian, and traditional.. To name a few!  Modular homes are simply wood frame structures that can have the same options and appointments as site built wood frame homes, such as: vaulted ceilings, high end cabinetry, granite and quartz countertops, crown molding, hardwood flooring, and ceramic tiling.  

HOW DO I GET STARTED.. WHAT’S THE PROCESS? 

The first step is a sales consultation. We can meet with you in person, over the phone, or on a video meet.  We want to help understand your project better so we can provide you with an estimate.  If you’re happy with our proposal we can move into our design phase!
