Modular Home Construction
A modular home is built to the same codes as a site built home. And because they must be transported to the home site, modular homes are much stronger than site built homes.
Since 1977, Palm Harbor Homes has led the factory-built home industry with a focus on complete customer satisfaction and superior homes. Palm Harbor builds in environmentally protected building centers featuring strict quality controls, minimal material waste and unbelievable efficiency. As a result, our customers receive strong, energy-efficient homes delivered in less time and for less money than comparable site built homes.
What is a Modular Home?
Modular homes are the fastest-growing segment of the home building industry. A modular home is simply a home built to local building codes in a controlled, environmentally protected building center using precise and efficient construction technology. A modular home is built to the same codes as a site built home. And because they must be transported to the home site, modular homes are much stronger than site built homes.Click here to see a 2-minute video of a Palm Harbor modular home setup.

Other Important Considerations.
- Is Modular Right For You?
When shopping for a new home, make sure to consider the advantages of modular construction. Modular homes are built in environmentally protected building centers and transported to the home site. As a result, they are much stronger than comparable site built homes. Palm Harbor's efficient building process provides strict quality control, faster building cycles and less material waste during the building process. The result is a 15-20% savings over comparable site-built homes. Not only do you own a stronger, more energy efficient home. You also save money. - Modular or Manufactured Home Construction
When deciding between a modular or manufactured home, it is important to understand the differences between the two. Modular homes allow for more architectural design freedom. Because they are built to local codes, modular home placement is typically less restricted. Modular homes can also provide the opportunity for higher appraisals.
