Oak Creek Homes Builds 50% of All Modular Homes in Texas in 2003

HOUSTON, TEXAS ( December 16, 2003 ) -- 59% of Fort Worth plant home production in last 6 weeks has been modular homes says Ronnie Richards.

What exactly is a modular home?
A modular home is constructed to meet local building codes and offers a combination of the best features of a factory-built home and a traditional site-built home.

Modular homes are built in a controlled environment.
Like a manufactured home, the indoor construction of an Oak Creek modular home has a number of benefits that result in unsurpassed quality. Every home is monitored on a daily basis to ensure that each phase of construction meets the high standards established by Oak Creek Homes. All building materials are protected from the elements during the construction process. This means that your home is built with materials that are clean and undamaged by moisture, wind or even insects.

A modular home shares the same construction features as those you expect in a site-built home.
Whether you’re looking for cottage comfort or wide-open spaces for a large family, an Oak Creek modular home can be built for you. Every home features taped and textured sheet rock walls over 2” x 4” studs on 16” centers, optional residential 6/12 roof systems and some models even include porches. Plus, Oak Creek modular homes are certified to meet the Texas Building Energy Code – the same energy-efficient code as met by new site-built homes. Not only does this mean a more comfortable environment for you and your family, it also means that you will save thousands of dollars in energy bills over the years.

Most importantly, modular homes are placed on a foundation just like a site-built home. The homesite is prepared, an engineered concrete pier and beam foundation is poured and the home is bolted to the foundation. A modular home exhibits the same strength as a traditional site built home and is rated to withstand winds of 120 mph. Basically, the only difference between a modular home and a traditional site-built home is where the homes are built – not how they are constructed.

Modular homes meet all local codes.
Modular homes can be built for any homesite – city or country. This is because Oak Creek modular homes meet the 2000 International Residential Code – the same general building code municipalities follow.
