    We’re transforming the site-built homebuilding process through off-site construction and supply for Clayton Properties Group®, our site-built home division.

    Precise construction through advanced drafting and robotic assembly delivers consistent materials, every time. The result? Quality homes with decreased build times that are completed when promised.
