Pinecrest Modular Homes

A Modular Overview

Modular Construction

Modular Construction is multiple section units built inside a factory and assembled on a building site. It has many structural upgrades not found on site built stick construction.  Modular  construction offers fixed pricing and less risk and inconvenience for the home buyer. There are many custom designs and tremendous design flexibility. Modular construction is less expensive due to factory buying power and productivity levels. Factories are constantly improving quality, product selections, product materials (sustainable products),  efficiency, and waste.
