What Is Panelization?


     Panelization is the process of building wall and floor panels and roof trusses off site, in a environmentally controlled factory, where skilled craftsman, with more than enough experience, are accurately assembling panel quickly and efficiently. 
     The time period to frame a panelized home, is significantly shorter than that of traditional, stick-framed houses. This means that your brand new home is weather tight sooner, lengthening the life of your home, and ultimately shortening the entire building process.
     With panel construction is happening on in a factory, rather than on site, this means less material waste on site. This is another cost savings benefit that also results in a cleaner job site.
     Even though the panels and trusses are built in a factory, doesn't mean that you're sacrificing the customization of your new home. We design all of our panels and trusses in house, to match the floor plan completely down to the last detail that you want in your new home. This makes the process completely custom!
     If you have a contractor selected that you trust, but they've never assembled a panelized home, we make it easy. We provide a complete set of shipping documents along with the panels and trusses so that assembly is a piece of cake. With details showing where each bundle of panels go, relative to the floor deck, and nicely labeled panels, your builder can grab a panel and put it in place without having to move too far.
     With panelization, there's nothing you can't do in your beautiful custom home. With quick, accurate assembly of pre-constructed panels and trusses, you can have a beautiful new home in no-time. If you've been thinking of building a house in the future, there's no better time. Give us a call for a free estimate, we'd love to talk!

Light Up Your Kitchen

You can have the most beautiful kitchen in the world, but if it's poorly lit, you'd never know - what a shame! Avoid this common problem by installing appropriate lighting in your kitchen and dining area. There are two questions to ask yourself when you're adding lighting in to your kitchen: what kind of lighting will I choose, and where will I decide the lighting should be? Get some inspiration for your lights, below. Image via www.bestofdiyideas.com Image via www.homebunch.com Image via www.doctorkish.com Image via www.wayfair.com

Things are looking up!

When it comes to different types of ceilings, there is a lot to choose from. If you're like most people, you think of the standard drop ceiling that we're used to seeing in many homes is the only option. That kind of thinking couldn't be further from the truth! If you're considering switching things up with your new home, check out this post to brainstorm some ideas for a new ceiling.
