Louisiana Modular Homes

Modular homes in New Orleans are built in sections inside a factory, delivered to the building site, placed on a foundation, and assembled; manufactured homes are all-in-one units built on a steel frame, and can be moved from one location to another. Modular homes must conform to all state, regional and local codes for the site at which they’ll be located and their completion is overseen by local building inspectors, while manufactured homes are only required to conform to the national HUD code. Modular homes are pre-fabricated in a factory and assembled onsite. Modular homes, unlike log homes, are made with steel frames and all the aluminum siding you can dream of. Modular homes follow the same regional housing codes that on-site homes must abide by.

Modular homes are every bit as attractive and comfortable as traditionally built homes, and may even cost less. Most consumers order a modular house and let the manufacturer complete it on their property. Modular homes require minimal construction after delivery to the homeowner’s property and can be finished in as little as two weeks. The houses are highly energy efficient, built to withstand winds of up to 140 miles per hour, and elevated to protect against future storm damage.
