How are Tomah Lumber homes built?
FRAMING
We start by obtaining all the necessary permits. Then the proper setback requirements and elevations are staked out, and the basement is excavated. Next, the footings and the foundation walls are poured, and the mason installs both inside and outside drain tile. Plumbing is then installed in the basement floor, and the foundation is back filled.
At this time we coordinate utilities including electrical, gas, sewer, and water laterals. Next, the building is framed with the highest quality building materials: treated sill plates, Douglas fir floor joists, TJI joists, engineered floor trusses, OSB floor and wall sheeting, 2'x6' walls, house wrap, engineered roof trusses, and OSB roof sheeting.
Utilities, Insulation, Roofing, & Siding
When the framing is completed, subcontractors rough in the plumbing, heating, and electrical. We then insulate, foamseal, and poly the home to insure it is warm, tight, and energy-efficient.
Meanwhile, the shingles and siding are installed. Stone accents are optional.
Finishing and Move-in
The drywall contractor hangs the sheetrock and tapes, textures, primes, and paints the walls and ceiling of your home with a high quality off-white enamel paint. Experienced trim carpenters install the doors, casings, railings, cabinets, countertops, closets, bathrooms accessories, locksets, and all the finishing touches.
Next, the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC contractors complete the interior package. The floor coverings are installed, and each nail hole is filled. Finally, your home is cleaned by our professional cleaning crew. Your new home is now ready to move in!
