Why Modular?

Modular housing offers many advantages over traditional building techniques. One of the most important advantages is the high level of quality assured by modular construction. The precision construction and effective process control during factory construction results in a better built home.

What Is Modular Construction?

Modular construction is the building of a home in separate sections, weather protected, within a controlled environment of a factory. Turn-Key modular homes are built in programmed stages from flooring to finished product. Floor treatments, framing, insulation, drywall, roofing, windows, siding, cabinetry, plumbing and lighting fixtures are all installed and completed by skilled craftsmen utilizing state-of-the-art production technology. The home is then shipped, 90% complete, to the building site and assembled on a foundation. Only minimal site construction is necessary, such as the foundation, modular set-up, securing the roof, and connection of various utilities.

Cost Savings

Overall building time is reduced by concurrent site work and home construction. This also allows for reduced interest on construction financing.

Our highly skilled work force has years of experience in the building industry and works year-round within our facilities.

Modular construction reduces the possibilities of cost over-runs.

The old saying "You get what you pay for" doesn't apply to Turn-Key modular homes because you get so much more.

Materials are bought in massive quantities, which bring costs way down.

Pennsylvania's labor costs are a third of that of Eastern Long Island.

The efficiency of the assembly line holds costs way down. Imagine what your car would cost if it was hand made.

Quality Assurance

There are many factors that contribute to the overall quality of a Turn-Key home.

Since construction takes place in a controlled environment, building materials are stored inside and are not exposed to the harmful effects of weather or vandalism.

Each home is built with quality brand name products from such reputable manufacturers as Armstrong, Andersen, Delta, Certainteed, Owens Corning, General Electric and more.

With construction performed in a factory, Turn-Key offers a greater potential for quality through standardized procedures and factory-based inspections.

All modular home construction including the installation of the floor, roof and wall sheathing is performed under the protective roof of the modular factory - Safe from inclement weather.

All our modular homes are built to meet nationally recognized standards and codes for home building.

Modular homes are built to withstand transporting and generally contain about 30% more lumber than traditional housing.

Modular homes must also pass rigorous third-party inspections during the building process, plus inspections from the manufacturer's own team of trained craftsmen, foremen and quality assurance inspectors.
