Top Modular Home Companies To Keep An Eye On.

  • I want to highlight 5 top modular home companies that are worth keeping an eye on this year. One of the top players in the industry, in my opinion, is known for its wide range of customizable floor plans and energy-efficient options. Another company that I think is worth checking out is a German company known for its eco-friendly and sustainable building practices. Finally, a modular prefabrication company that also specializes in high-end, modern designs, is also a great option if that's your style. These are just a few of the top modular home companies that I think are worth looking into as you watch this video, each offering unique and cutting-edge solutions for those looking to build their dream home.

    I built a Westchester Modular home in 1996 and it was a fabulous experience. They were great to work with and everything about the build was timely, on budget, and expertly done. The home was great looking, energy efficient and appreciated very well. I lived in it for many years before I moved to another state. I'd use them again in a heartbeat if I was still in their area.

    We looked at Blu, Method, and a couple of other modular companies when we started our project. Here in California they were outrageously expensive for what was being offered. It would have actually been more affordable to do a traditional stick-built home. In the end, since it was for a second home, we went with a cross-mod from Clayton and saved ourselves a little over $500,000.

    • @Diagonalforward79

    • @Greg_Knight
      @Greg_Knight Рік тому +6

      @@Diagonalforward79 An additional note. We also considered SilverCrest out of Corona, CA. I really, really, really recommend that you visit several dealers and actually walk through the models and take detailed notes and pictures. Many lot models show mostly upgrades and look fantastic. You need to pin the rep down on what is actually included in the base model. We learned adding or moving windows, doors, etc., was not that expensive. But upgrading to stone counters was expensive so that will be an after-purchase upgrade. The Coronado series, although not many exterior options, is well-built with larger windows and standard 9' ceilings, soft-close cabinets, and actual drywall.

    I really like the HWS Global's "resistant to mold" materials and concept because my mom has super high allergies and I think it's an amazing option.

    I've researched a number of "modular" style and kit options and would appreciate your input on some I've found. First, from a traditional standpoint, I've discovered Landmark Homes and Land Co., which manufactures "panelized" shells that offer more than traditional shell homes, because they include the framing inside and out, walls (OSB), subroofing, 2x6 studs,16" apart, so that you're left with more of a structure on which you'd add the rest (most DIY). Next, I have researched quonset homes for their wind resistance and cost efficiency (my property is on the coast of NC). Third, I'd looked at steel structures. The challenges with quonset hut and steel structures is framing the inside. Otherwise, from a cost standpoint, these are clearly the most cost efficient options. Your thoughts?
