Modular Home 101: The Basis of Home Construction Superiority
Modular homes offer the new home buyer a path to the best overall value for your home building dollar. Modular home constructs are built with premium grade materials, computer-assisted crafting, and with unmatched craftsmanship. This means these homes are guaranteed to be strong and sturdy. Here are several applications as to why modular-constructed homes are far superior when compared to traditional-built houses:
- Window and door casings of our modular homes in Williamsburg, VA are fortified with metal splines in the corners
- A strong adhesive is used to fix the drywall against the wall studs and the ceiling joists
- Larger drywall sheets are applied to walls and ceilings
- In two-story structures, the ceiling of the first-floor level and the flooring of the second level are detached.
- To secure floor sheathing, they are both glued and nailed.
- Flush beams are installed into the floor system
- Double or triple perimeter joists are applied at the mating walls
- Modules are connected at the mating wall using bolts in the basement and attic
- Strapping technique is applied to the corners of the perimeter floor joists
