Please use this as a quick reference on how we build our homes! 1.) The frame is desgined to distribute weight evenly during delivery. 2.) Graded wood & structural ladder systems dramitcally 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.) All 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 Fortune 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 adequate 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!
