Thank you for
visiting our site.
Affordable Homes An affordable home is home who's sales price does not exceed the median home price within its area. An affordable home is also one that the average family can comfortably afford to live in. Affordable homes meet all the stringent Florida building code requirements and contain everything your family will need at an affordable price. We can build an affordable home in either traditional frame construction or with concrete block construction. We have plenty of floor plans for you to choose from.
Custom Homes A custom home is for those interested in personalizing their home beyond the basics. Building a custom home allows you to have more influence about the style of your home than is available with an affordable home. Have special requirements or special needs? Custom homes afford consumers the opportunity to control layout, sizes, colors, textures, trim, accessibility, and much more. As with an affordable home a custom home can be build with frame or block construction methods. It's up to you to choose which you prefer, after all its your Custom Home.
Panelized Homes A panelized home is a great way to build either an affordable or a custom home. They combine time-tested building methods with modern technology to deliver customizable, energy-efficient, beautiful new homes. The interior and exterior walls of a panelized home are built in a climate-controlled facility which helps with speed and savings. The walls are then erected on you slab in a matter of days. Panelized is a great options for those interested in building a frame construction house!
Modular Homes A modular home is also constructed in a climate controlled facility like a panelized home. The difference is not only are the walls built at the facility, nearly the whole home (approximately 90%) is built at the factory. Once built the pieces of the home are transported by truck and lifted into place on site with a crane. Depending on the floor plan this can save time and money over traditional construction methods. As with panelized, these homes are built to all the latest building codes with frame construction. The modular homes we install are factory certified with Energy Star rated energy efficiency standards. A modular homes biggest advantage is that it can be built and ready to live in within about a 6 week time-frame!
Roofing - Shingle & Metal A good roof in one of the most important parts of your house. What's the old saying "you need a roof over your head". The most common type of roofing is a Shingle roof. Shingles come in many shapes and sizes, so we will have to talk about what's right for you. In our central Florida climate you can expect an inexpensive shingle roof to last anywhere from 10 to 15 years. With a higher grade shingle you can expect it to last about 20 years. Even though you buy a "30 year shingle" with Florida's tough climate you will most likely never get 30 years from a shingled roof.
When you looking for longevity you have to think Metal. A good steel roof is designed to last 50 years, and with some maintenance can last much longer. Metal roofs also come in many shapes and sizes so we would have to go over your options. You can expect to pay about 2 to 3 times more for a metal roof than a shingled roof. Steel roofs, depending on the color and style, come with tax credits and some are Energy Star rated to help with the energy efficiency of your home.
