- In this video the house is set on the foundation by the crane. I have a feeling this is the video most people think of when they consider a modular home. It was very fascinating to see the house fly through the air.

What a great video! I am amazed how sturdy it was considering the length it could have easily broken it's back either during delivery or when it was lifted. I have never seen anything like this before, is it common where you live? Most houses here are brick and concrete with more and more timber framed that are assembled piece by piece on site
+Michael Collinson these houses have been around several years here in the states. Homecrafters was telling me they are becoming very popular with young people who cannot afford to stick build traditionally. Everybody on the setup crew says these houses are stronger than traditional houses because they have to be picked up by the crane. After seeing all our house went through I would have to agree.
It's hard to believe that traditional stick built is that much more expensive. I would think that stick built would actually be cheaper in all but the most expensive building areas of the country. I think the main benefit always touted for prefab is that the house can be built faster by having a factory vs built onsite. Even then a typical house around here would only take 2-4 months from start to moving in not counting permitting time. I would guess you still have a month or more of finish up work before you can move in. All in all, it is impressive just how much effort it takes to land the pieces exactly where they need to be and begin to button everything up. The speed of the operation makes it feel like a lot was accomplished in a very short amount of time.
+kuhrd I feel like one of the biggest advantages especially in this area is that the house is built inside. We probably had 3 to 4 inches of rain during the time the home would have been built. This way the inside of our house never saw that moisture. As far as build time goes if we had not gotten so much snow I would say two months and we would have been done. The finishing up work took about 2 to 3 weeks so pretty close to a month.
I actually work for Three Stone Realty and you would be surprised how nice and well built these newer mobiles are, I would say they are just as good if not a little stronger than stick built homes.
I agree. Our home had to travel a long way and I can tell it's well built.
I was wondering how they would get the lift cables out from between the sections, until I saw their clever little rigging trick. Sweet! And now we know why they needed all the piers in the middle. Great series so far.
+indoorherbivore it took a while for them to drill the cable holes. When done they just pull right out. Thank you.
Also makes it have a better foundation
“As long as you have a penny under it you will never be broke” 😂😂😂
That's what the old-timers say. I guess it's not wrong.
I need a beer break after watching the video. Thanks.
Haha some of my videos you should start the beer and then watch.
at first I thought it was a manufactured home, but going by the roof its a prefab. where I am the prefabs or modualars are hauled on flat beds and only the manufactured ones have the frame under it as the trailer/foundation.
This one is a modular. The frame is made from 2x12's but is not attached to the wheels.
What a great video! I am amazed how sturdy it was.
what happened on mine was the OSB buckled just a little bit, and it made an opening. also mice like to run up the corners of the siding to the attic, and they make a home in your new home.
+Nate B Eww that sounds bad. I will have to keep looking for anything like that.
Where is this company from.
Shootout to the moving crew , AMAZING JOB .
Yes they really did a good job. There were only a few issues with the move and they were taken care of quickly.
I've heard using the crane service can be VERY expensive.
The house factored in $4k for the crane. ... so yes very expensive!
Is it just me or is that trailer look long as hell..🤔
We maxed out the modular home at 76 feet.
@@LandtoHouse Wow that's pretty big..It was awesome watching it be done
It was quite the process watching them get all the equipment and the house down these roads.
Yes it’s big and long
Watch NEVER BUY A CLAYTON MANUFACTURED HOME on You Tube
I will have to check it out. This was not a Clayton.
I thought it was interesting the way they raised the roof up like that. I thought the house had multiple slopes to it until the part showing the crew raising it. I guess the home is transported with the roof dropped down to keep the total height low enough to travel safely.
*the house roof had
+tallman11282 that is exactly right. There is a second dormer that is added later.
That was cool to watch.
+Xsiner thank you. It was even better in person.
Oh lordy, I have no room for a crane to do a modular I wanted. ?The road is inclined and tree line to lift over... learn someone everyday! Any thought people.
"Go on over there and put you a penny under it, and that way, as long as you have it, you'll never be broke."
Awww, thank you! Imma gonna remember that. ;D
Now that was impressive! Bet it was even more spectacular in person .
+KC it really was nice!
That was fascinating and nerve wracking at the same time. It was something we never see in South Africa, as all houses are Brick and Mortar.
+Charl Joubert this style of house has been around for a few years here in the states. And apparently it is becoming more popular with young people who can't afford to stick build
born and raised in Zimbabwe but living in USA now and really considering modular/manufactured option. And yes almost all houses in Zimbabwe are just bricks and mortar and then timber for roofing only
We've been very pleased with our modular home. It has done everything we need it to.
Do these type of houses usually get anchored to the foundation in anyway?
This one has J bolts sunk into the blocks and the house is bolted to those J bolts.
Cost of foundation and crane? Do you like your home?
how do they attached it to the foundation?
+Sebastian Hanhausen sadly that is one of the steps I missed. There was a fellow under the house with a loud drill. I assume he was setting anchors.
on the second lift...guy walks under suspended load
It's just a ... house.... wouldn't hurt that bad... lol
@@LandtoHouse Tell that to the Wicked Witch of the East 😂😂
HA yes she did have some (multi-ton) issues on her shoulders.
What was thr cost of delivery and marriage with a crane?
X, Y, Z plus A, B, C, all with variable measurements. So simple.
no tie down between home and sill? how does it get attached?
The video is only 18:42 minutes. I really hope that it takes longer than 18 minutes 42 seconds to install this home.
This is actually part of a 50 part series. The series shows from bare Woods all the way up until an installed home
the one thing to make sure of is that the joint between the basement wall and the framed wall is sealed well. I did not watch closely when mine was installed 11 years ago, and that is where the critters like to sneak in.
+Nate B that is an interesting thought. I did not watch that either. It seems like the base of the house had a layer of black plastic. I don't know if that will help. But so far no critters.
This stuff is pretty cool
What size of crane is that?
How’s that house anchored?
What was the cost on this crane?
it's was the first video I noticed your tiny house and where it was in relation to the new one.
+nintendolunchbox yes it is just across the road. :) I hope to paint it the same as the big house
How far did they have to haul your house to your land?
It was a long way. Apparently the distance has a lot to do with the cracked sheetrock.
Wauw that was fantastic to look at great job guys and what a lovely home.
Thank you. We have enjoyed it very much. The process of moving the home in was interesting.
bet lifting that house with the crane was nerve racking
+Mason Moberg it was indeed. And watching one guy spin it around :)
WOW absolutely amazing. I never have seen how they do this. Look what you can do if you have the right tools and knowledge.
They do this almost every day! I was shocked to learn how fast they can get a house set.
I found these videos so helpful, thank you! I'm a new subscriber and I'm currently starting a project to buy an acre of land from family and having a modular ranch built for it in New Hampshire. Thank you for sharing this information! Glad to see your build was successful!
Thank you for watching! Is 1 acre of land enough for the septic system and backup drain field in your area? This build went well.
@@LandtoHouse I live on 1/2 an acre and have an actual well house as well as two septic tanks on it, but I also live in Florida in an unincorporated area, and this was done back in the 40's.....
Wow
One of the coolest things I've seen in a while. Nice to know that your house is strong/rigid enough to be picked up by four support wires. Almost wish I had found this series a month from now so I could binge watch them all at once. Great work!
+redamaleki it was very fascinating to see them pick this house up with those four wires. Rather scary at the same time. I think it went rather smoothly though. It's nice to hear you say that you would bend watch this series haha. Makes me feel like I have filmed well enough to be interesting.
I watched most of the tiny house videos. Very well done, kept me very engaged. I really appreciate the time you put in to share what you've learned. I keep seeing the tiny house in the background, hopefully it will still get some good use now that your house is up!
+redamaleki I do hoe to return to work on it but first I need to get a Ton of house things done :) ..... I did get the ants out of the tiny house
What's the pitch of the roof?
I don't remember the exact pitch. We went with steeper to make it look more house like and less trailer.
Haha so how exactly to they join the two houses
+Mason Moberg they used a large pulley system that bolted to both halves of the house and then they just tightened down.
Hi Seth how are you, I just subscribed to your channel a few days a ago, I understand you don't have/know much about the construction field and your still learning the building process of being more knowledgeable.. which is a good thing... learn as much as you can... knowledge is everything... your bound to make mistakes along your long journey of building. I have to say since I have been in the construction field for a very long time I am concerned of what I saw, the the first half of the house which would be the back part.... definitely is (NOT) siting in the good part of the middle half of the pillars, I would be very concerned about that and I'm really shocked to see that and the fact that the people who placed it on there didn't say anything, I'm sure they work for Home Crafters where you purchased your home, i would have and still say something about the inappropriate placement of the pillars and they need to do something about that.Those middle pillars should have split the difference between (BOTH) half's of the modular home....there is tons of weight that is being forced down on the pillars and I would be concerned about that in the long run.
I still would questioned that, especially you and your wife are spending your hard earned money to get something build right for you and your family.
The other thing I would be concerned about is the transportation of the modular home and the structural aspect of it, while the turns and uphills of transporting your home to your property, I was wondering if you had any cracks to your drywall and other problems the would be concerning and need to be addressed.
Maybe you should had the house build instead, you probably saved some money with the modular home, but it would have been better to have it build on site.
I also saw the video building your work shop, not a very well thought out plan, lot's of mistakes and not executed right, just concerned about the structural phase of it and the fact that you have children, oh yeah gun shots on the background from your neighbors, just be careful.
What is the area called that you reside, if you don't mind me asking?
Hi I am well. Thank you for asking. Oh yes I am very new to construction! I tend to make a mistake or two in every project that I undertake. I went under the house to have a look at the pillar placement. My guess is when the house was pulled together with the cables it was moved in the correct place. The seem of the house seems to be right in the middle of the pillars.
There were a few cracks in the Sheetrock. The house seems to have come through the move with minimal damage. There was a fellow that patches up those cracks and did an amazing job.
Haha our neighbors are great people. I also go out and fire some I just dont show that because youtube is anti shooting. (I also dont talk about it in comments for the same reason) Yes there are a few roocky mistakes in the shop build. But considering its a shed its not bad for my first build. We are in the appalachian mountains.
Land to House Thanks for responding back, beautiful place you live,, what kind of work do you do, if you don't mind me asking Seth?
We have enjoyed it very much. I make youtube videos, Sell hydraulic ram pumps, and work with adults with developmental disabilities.
cool
No hard hats??
Well logic will tell you, if a house falls on you, a hard hat would be worthless JS, it's still most likly going to kill you. safety things often only calm the belief that it will help but in reality many safety things will actually cause more harm than good, not always but many of times.
Even I'm nervous.
+mini696 haha it all turns out. . . Spoiler.
Only plastic ? No wood on the sides over the insulation?? That must be a cheap Clayton home.
What part? The inner walls don't have wood. The outer walls do have osb.
