SUPERIOR STRENGTH AND QUALITY
System-built homes utilize CAD (Computer Aided Design) technology to calculate design measurements used in framing jigs. This computer-to-factory floor process ensures quality precision when building floors, walls, ceilings and other framing tasks. A third party inspector then checks each stage of the building process to ensure your home meets all applicable state building codes for its destination site. Because our home modules are transported to the job site and lifted into place by a crane, they are engineered and built stronger than a typical stick-built home.
Typically system-built homes contain 20% - 30% more material than site-built homes. According to a FEMA study in the wake of Hurricane Andrew, system-built homes outperformed site-built

WHY SYSTEM-BUILT CO
System-built and site-built homes are governed by the same building codes. However, the system built construction process has distinct advantages. The main difference between the two building methods is that site built homes are built piece-by-piece on location, while system-built homes are built as large modules inside a manufacturing facility and then transported to location.
Due to site-built construction’s exposure to weather, their process has a greater opportunity for delay and product damage. In contrast, Wisconsin Homes protects the construction process from the elements because work is done in the controlled environment inside our factory. Our workforce has advantages as well. All our workers are supervised and properly trained to perform their duties. Ideal building conditions in the factory every day make implementing quality control measures reliable and keep the building process on schedule. Finally, when your home modules are completed in the factory, they are transported to your job site, assembled on your foundation and finished.
