Please use this as a quick reference on how we build our homes! 1.) The frame is designed to distribute weight evenly during delivery. 2.) Graded wood & structural ladder systems dramatically reduce floor bowing/crowning 3.) Floor adhesive is liberally applied to fuse the floor decking to the joists. This virtually eliminates floor squeaks. 4.) Floor sanders ensure a smooth finish every time! |
5.)Most exterior walls are 2"x6" and accomodate an R-19 rolled insulation. 6.) The exterior walls are constructed on pre-fabricated jigs to ensure a perfect fit. 7.) All Dutch Homes are constructed entirely together. This will help make a tight fit and finish when the home is set on a permanent foundation. 8.) Exterior Walls are constructed while lying down, thus ensuring secure joints and an tight fit every time! |
9.) Double 2"x6" Window and Door headers keep windows and doors in square. 10.) Vinyl Windows with Energy-Efficient Insulated Glass keep the elements out! 11.) An optional elevated roof pitch can give a residential exterior appeal to the roof-line of any home. 12.) 2x6" Fascia Boards are directly attached to the rafters. This allows you to attach your on-site gutters and downspouts. |
13.) Pre-Engineered and stress tested roof rafters exceed the minimum 30lbs per sq. ft. roof load ratings. 14.) The batted insulation and foam roof baffles help eliminate ice damns. 15.) Self-sealing underlayment paper is designed to never become brittle and remain less prone to leakage than traditional papers. 16.) 25/30 Year Shingles cap the roof and make it ready for the elements! |
