Our Uncompromising Commitment to
Quality & Integrity is in Concrete!
As manufactured housing turns the corner and becomes the new affordable housing of the future, it is the structural performance of these homes that will separate the winners from the losers.
It has been estimated that as many as 90% of all manufactured homes will experience some type of costly structural failure that can be directly traced to the installation of the home. In fact, a properly installed manufactured home is so important that new laws have been passed that will require all manufactured homes to be installed on site, soil and model specific engineered foundations.
Sure Safe® EFS engineered foundation systems are site, soil and model specific . .
The site and model specificity of Sure Safe® EFS foundations means that all engineering is geared towards meeting live and dead loads of the home along with the specific site conditions such as soil, earthquake, hurricane, frost heave, snow load, etc. Sure Safe® is also the only foundation that can be retrofitted on existing manufactured homes in compliance with IBC and HUD building codes without moving or lifting the home. AND, due to the superior structural performance of manufactured homes installed on Sure Safe® EFS foundations, special financing is now in the offing that will allow homes that are installed only on Sure Safe® EFS foundations to be appraised just like site built homes!
Sure Safe® EFS foundations can be installed in under 4-hours at 1/3 the cost of any IBC/HUD compliant foundation today!
Since its introduction, the Sure Safe® EFS Steel Buttress ™ System has raised considerable excitement with engineers, architects, developers and building officials. This is because the natural forces of gravity govern the installation of the Steel Buttress™ foundation system. When completed each structural pier column carries precisely the same load, no more, no less. The Sure Safe® EFS Steel Buttress™ is the logical choice for permanent foundations in the manufactured home industry today. Sure Safe’s superior strength, performance, and simplicity of installation can be fully installed on existing homes and new sets in less than four hours.
