How do Modular Homes compare to site-built homes?
Modular Homes are built to the exact same NC building codes as site-built homes. Modular Homes generally use 20% more lumber than comparable site-built homes. The controlled factory setting protects the material from the weather, allows closer management supervision, reduces material waste and allows the introduction of modern construction technology. Modular Homes are also manufactured by full-time housing professionals, not subcontractors.
