Are you interested in extending the life of your manufactured home??

An engineered perimeter foundation will provide you with a more stable and secure foundation for your manufactured home.

Improve and protect the investment you have made in a manufactured home and land combination. This combination has definite advantages when an engineered perimeter foundation is installed to better tie the home to the land and support the home at the outside walls. Having the engineered perimeter foundation installed under the outside walls of the manufactured home will take the load off of the roof and outside walls down to ground level and extend the life of the home. The installation of an engineered perimeter foundation has the following construction and lender advantages:

In summary, the increasing construction costs of site built homes and the costs of transportation help to the job site is just too great for most home buyers to pay. Therefore, manufactured home communities need a quality construction option. Manufactured homes can give today’s home buyer the best of both worlds with an engineered perimeter foundation. 

At PermaRock Foundation, LLC., we have devised a solution that is affordable, economic, and has relatively simple installation techniques with a system that is patented, legally protected, and takes only two days to install. The system also meets all of the current lender’s standards that would comply with requirements to obtain full and complete standard financing at current mortgage interest rates with a standard LTV (loan to value) percentage as given when financing permanent site built housing. As the homeowner you must still qualify and meet the lender’s approved credit standards.
