Q: What are component homes? A: They are constructed both in a factory and on the site. They conform to all state, local or regional codes where the house is located. Individual roof sections, floor sections and wall sections are delivered to the site and erected by an experienced crew. Component homes offer the flexibility of stick built houses and still incorporate the efficiencies of system built homes. A well-built, well cared for component home generally increases in value over time.
