Building Your Home
You may already have an idea of the benefits of building a new home or addition the Modular way versus the conventional “stick-built” way. Aside from the climate and weather issues that impair the Stick-Built home process, some of the benefits of building a Modular Home versus a Stick-Built home include: Cost factor, quality assurance, design options and flexibility, technology, warranty and structural integrity. These benefits can be further defined as follows:
- Modular Homes offer more value for the dollar. The cost is controlled by the factories who purchase materials in volume and waste is minimized by re-utilizing materials in other sections of your home or in another home built in that same factory - this would be impossible on a stick-built home construction site - Could you imagine saving a piece of 2x4 lumber and trucking it to a storage unit until you find the use for it (for a cabinet frame in another home for example). Factory workers are employed year-round and therefore cost less than a contractor for a given home. The cost savings is passed on to you.
- Modular homes are built to the highest building code standards. As each unit of a Modular Home needs to be transported and/or craned into place, each unit must have separate structural integrity. These units are therefore built with 30% more lumber than Stick-Built homes and provide better insulation.
- A finished Modular Home is more resistant to North East extreme weather conditions. Factories also maintain a climate-controlled environment where work can continue in any season and weather condition. This is an advantage as far as controlling mold for example; no material is damaged due to weather conditions during the construction process. Accidents and the loss of materials due to on-site theft are minimized.
- Factories utilize the most updated equipment. This assures that all corners are square and walls are plumb. Both the inside and the outside of a Modular Home are built simultaneously and are therefore tighter with regards to air flow. This makes a Modular Home 80% ENERGY STAR® qualified from the factory, translating in lesser costs to make it 100% ENERGY STAR® qualified upon request.
- Every Next Generation Modular Home comes with a 10 yr. structural warranty!

Next Generation Products
To earn the ENERGY STAR®, a home must meet guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These homes are at least 15% more energy efficient than homes built to the 2004 International Residential Code (IRC), and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20–30% more efficient than standard homes.
With home buyers increasingly interested in "Green Building", energy efficiency is the place to start. That's because the energy used in homes often comes from the burning of fossil fuels at power plants, which contributes to smog, acid rain, and risks of global warming. So, the less energy used, the less air pollution generated. And the easy way to make sure a new home is energy efficient is to look for the blue ENERGY STAR® mark, the government-backed symbol for energy efficiency. Learn more about how Green Begins with ENERGY STAR® Blue.
Any home three stories or less can earn the ENERGY STAR® label if it has been verified to meet EPA's guidelines, including: single family, attached, and low-rise multi-family homes; manufactured homes; systems-built homes (e.g., SIP, ICF, or modular construction); log homes, concrete homes; and even existing retrofitted homes.
ENERGY STAR® qualified homes can include a variety of 'tried-and-true' energy-efficient features that contribute to improved home quality and homeowner comfort, and to lower energy demand and reduced air pollution:
- Effective Insulation
Properly installed and inspected insulation in floors, walls, and attics ensures even temperatures throughout the house, reduced energy use, and increased comfort. Learn more about Properly Installed Insulation. - High-Performance Windows
Energy-efficient windows employ advanced technologies, such as protective coatings and improved frames, to help keep heat in during winter and out during summer. These windows also block damaging ultraviolet sunlight that can discolor carpets and furnishings. Learn more about Qualified Windows. - Tight Construction and Ducts
Sealing holes and cracks in the home's "envelope" and in heating and cooling duct systems helps reduce drafts, moisture, dust, pollen, and noise. A tightly sealed home improves comfort and indoor air quality while reducing utility and maintenance. Learn more about Efficient Duct Systems. - Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment
In addition to using less energy to operate, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems can be quieter, reduce indoor humidity, and improve the overall comfort of the home. When properly installed into a tightly sealed home, this equipment won't have to work so hard to heat and cool the home. Learn more about:
- Qualified Heating Equipment
- Qualified Cooling Equipment
- Mechanical Ventilation - Efficient Products
ENERGY STAR® qualified homes may also be equipped with ENERGY STAR® qualified products — lighting fixtures, compact fluorescent bulbs, ventilation fans, and appliances, such as refrigerators, dishwashers, and washing machines. Learn more about ENERGY STAR® qualified products:
- Qualified Appliances
- Qualified Lighting
- Advanced Lighting Package
- High Efficiency Water Heaters - Third-Party Verification
With the help of independent Home Energy Raters, ENERGY STAR® builder partners choose the most appropriate energy-saving features for their homes. Additionally, raters conduct onsite testing and inspections to verify the energy efficiency measures, as well as insulation, air tightness, and duct sealing details.
