The homesite you chose is inspected for quality at a very early stage. Before your home is released, our permitting department "sites" the footprint of the house on the lot. The superintendent reviews the site plan and places small pins in the soil to mark the precise location of the home's footprint. This gives a general outline of where the footing – the concrete "platform" that the foundation sits on and where the weight of the house is distributed into the soil - should be poured. Once the footings are placed, pending weather, the foundation can be poured. |
