A Practical Explaination Why Modular Homes Are Stronger
Knowing that the modular home frames are built in a factory to exacting design specifications, then one's thought might logically turn to how those frames are transported to the building site. They of course are trucked and then erected on site via industrial cranes.
This stage of construction is the perfect time for you to conduct an "apples-to-apples" comparison of stick-built vs modular construction. Walk on to any stick-built construction site and watch the stick-builders use air guns to to nail the walls, floors, and ceilings. Now, walk on to a modular construction site and note that your new modular home's walls, floors, and ceilings are screwed and lag-bolted together. Maybe you'll notice the special adhesives that are also used to add yet another level of construction integrity and strength.
During the framing stage of home construction, even the casual observer will note the clear superior difference between the two building styles. Contact Us and we will be more than glad to give you a personal demonstration of the differences.
