Over the last 60 years we've done more than build homes, we've transformed how they're built in the first place.

Building A Better Tomorrow

Sustainable practices help us minimize our impact on the plant.

• We commit to plant two trees for every one used in the construction of our homes, restoring over 2 million trees to the environment this year.*
• Exact measurements reduce production waste and we further improve efficiency by diverting over 10,000 tons of waste from landfills every year through recycling and material re-use efforts.

*Based on two trees planted by the Arbor Day Foundation for every estimated tree used in our home building process in the previous year; assuming estimated board feet used at 754 board feet per tree and average square footage of our homes built by type.

Quality Brands and Products

A building process is only as good as what goes into it. For us, that means quality products from the industry's most trusted brands, so your home is built to last.

A Strong Foundation

Our pier and beam foundations use massive anchors driven deep into the ground to secure your home against the elements, and we have crawl space, slab or basement options to suit any need.

2” x 6” floor joists on 16” centers means we use 48% more joists in our average home*, which combined with our interlocking floor decking ensures a solid sub-floor.

*Compared to 24” center floor joists in a 56’ multi-section home.

Exterior Walls

Keep your world cozy, comfortable & secure with 2” x 4” studs on 16” centers that are packed with R11 insulation to help with energy efficiency while ThermoPly structural sheathing provides durability, moisture resistance and a best in class air barrier.

The construction of your home is important, but it's the finishing touches that take your house to a dream home. Visit us today to explore ways to personalize your new home!
