What is
a modular house? A modular house is one that is built
in sections and is built in factories utilizing technology
that is cutting edge. The modular house is then transported
to the job site by trucks and set on the foundation by a
crane. The modular house comes 80 to 90 percent complete.
A modular house is stronger than a conventionally
built house. Why? Because more materials are used in the
building process so that it can withstand the rigors of
the moving process. A special adhesive is also used to strengthen
the modular house.
Modular
houses are growing in popularity all over the United
States and Canada. They are especially popular in the Northeast
where the building season is much shorter due to bad weather.
Because the modular house is built indoors in a quality
controlled environment, the inclement weather conditions
do not effect the building process.
Many building contractors are switching
to building their houses the modular way. Contractors know
that they can build a modular house much quick than the
old fashioned way. This is a better way
for them to make their living because they can build more
houses in a year this way.

house floorplans available now. YOu can find just about
