Grandeur's modular homes are manufactured in a 200,000-square-
foot facility. Warms says the factory-built units have a number of
advantages over site-built homes. For one thing, materials aren't
exposed to the elements during construction.
"We don't ever have to worry about the weather outside and
whether it's raining or snowing. They're always in a dry location.
We never have an issue of working with wet lumber," he says.
Otherwise, there is very little difference between how modular
homes and on-site dwellings are built. Both have to be built to the
same codes, but Grandeur's homes must be slightly sturdier to
withstand any forces they may encounter during transportation.
