Single- and Double-wide Mobile Home Decks

Single- and Double-wide Mobile Home Decks - America's largest home builder. Built with quality and innovation, these homes are designed, engineered, and constructed right here in America. Different from traditional home building, our homes are built in a highly controlled environment, under cover and away from the elements like rain and snow, which affect the speed and precision of the building process. The materials we use come from quality brands which have been tested and proven for decades. These materials, also produced in America, are kept on site to increase efficiency during the build. These and many more reasons are what makes Clayton Homes America's number one home builder. With so much going on, it's hard to believe this all takes place under one roof, and we're excited to show you our process which starts "from the ground up"! Our foundation begins with solid American steel! These I-beams are engineered to support the structure of your home. Cross members connect the two I-beams and add stability to your home's foundation. Next, outriggers are welded to the steel I-beam for extra strength and support.


Once the foundation is secured, double deck mobile home your home moves to the flooring experts. Before insulation is rolled out, we lay down a nylon reinforced vapor barrier which adds a layer of protection to keep moisture out of the home and serves as an extra barrier against pests and allergens. On top of the vapor barrier, a thick blanket of quality insulation from Johns Manville keeps the home comfortable and energy efficient. An engineered floor system provides a solid foundation for your flooring, ensuring a solid feel that doesn't give even after years of use. Because Clayton builds homes for families all across America, we design our homes to withstand frigid temperatures for peace of mind in cold climates. As the flooring comes together, the plumbing system is installed within the insulation blanket to help maintain consistent water temperatures. Pex plumbing is used in your home to ensure constant water pressure, as well as prevent leaks. Interlocking floor decking keeps the floors structurally sound, after which the decking is sanded to provide a smooth surface for installing floor covering.  To complete the flooring, water resiliant "no wax" floors from Congoleum or Beau are used in kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas. Our exterior walls are built to last! With studs framed on 16" centers. The door and window openings have structural headers for added strength and functionality. Electrical wiring is covered by steel plates where it passes through the wall studs to ensure safety and prevent damage.

Finally, buy mobile home deck the exterior walls are packed full of thick insulation for maximum energy efficiency. While the exterior walls are erected, factory workers have been piecing together the intricately engineered truss system that makes up the foundation of your roof. Within the truss system, insulation fills the roof cavity to reduce energy costs and keep your home comfortable. Once the truss system is completed, the roof is lowered into place over your home, where laminated ridge beams and structural lumber beams are used over all openings between the two sections to maintain the structural integrity of the entire home. After the truss system is covered with the roof decking, fiberglass shingles are laid out to protect your new roof. House wrap is installed as a second line of defense to protect your home against the elements and help reduce energy bills. After the house is wrapped, durable and low maintenance siding is installed by hand. Each home goes through an inspection process certified by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to ensure everything is working properly. Inspection includes: Pressure-tested plumbing lines, electrical outlets, exterior inspection for consistency and quality, quality walk-through to check walls, doors, trim, and flooring, plus much more... Do you know where the average household consumes energy? Almost half is spent on heating and cooling the rooms, while the other half is spent on appliances, electricity, and water heating. A house that uses energy efficiently is important to our customers, and it's important to us.

  1. We recently added a deck to our mobile home and wow, it really made a difference in how homey and cozy it looks. Now, entertaining can be wonderful and there's a lot more space to lounge outside our home. We've had a lot of compliments coming from friends and families whom we have hosted in our home. One tip, make a budget of all the things that have to be done, including professional services. If you can do some of the work to save on money, then do so.
