My brother was in the mobile home manufacturing business. There’s so much that goes into actually building one. He designed & built so many homes & was excellent at his job. He made sure only the best quality of materials were used, as well as the building of them had to be perfectly constructed. He was out on the lot helping direct a mobile home to be backed up closer to another one & the driver wasn’t watching what he was doing & backed over my brother & he ended up with a crushed spine. Unable to work afterwards, the company went out of business. It was Skyline Mobile Homes. He really loved his job & it’s very sad that happened to him. 😢
Wow brought back a lot of memories. I worked in a mobile home plant for 20yrs. Our homes were built totally inside from start to finish with one jog in the line. It's not an easy job. At our prime, we were building 8 floors a day. Whew.
It is very impressive to think that not only was the house built in seven days, but it was designed and built to survive traveling on roads and highways that shake a lot of site-built houses to pieces!
I started out at a mobilehome factory in 1972 building homes. At that time, before HUD standards we built about 4 to 7 homes A DAY. Since HUD standards were implemented in 1976 the process has slowed. Better materials, better building standards and codes, better quality all enters into it now. I retired from the mobile/manufactured industry in 2003.
This was awesome! Thank you. When I was a kid, Mr. Rogers would do these episodes where he showed how things were made. They were always my favorite. This reminded me of that. So satisfying.
@@conureron3792 I work for that company and build these homes and it's 1 day to build these homes sometimes less from start to finish we r building 10 homes a day
This is really awesome to see, my ex husband worked for a builder in Michigan and the home we had me and the kids got to go in several different times to see it in the different stages was very neat to watch and we loved it even more when it was done 😊
This is NOT how I thought this happened!!! I have no idea exactly how I thought mobile homes were made, this just isn't it. I do have to say that the final product was beautiful & so clean looking! And thank you Winston Homes! ❤️
This was fun and it really let's everyone see the actual nuts and bolts (and electric and HVAC, etc.) of what goes into making these homes a reality for the people who buy them. I think you should make a video on the differences between a modular and manufactured home. A lot of times folks use those term interchangeably and I'm not altogether sure I understand all the differences myself. Thank you for this very cool "Field Trip"!
Modular is built to your local codes like a stick built, but it’s built in a factory and comes in panels. Now there is something called “off frame modular” and “on frame modular,” and I’m not sure what the differences there mean specifically. Manufactured is built to HUD (federal) code.
you all prolly dont care but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my login password. I love any help you can give me!
I have to say that was pretty neat watching one being built like that. There is a lot of work and people to actually build one of these homes. Thanks for sharing with us !!!!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend Chance !!!!! ❤️❤️🥰
Interesting quick tour. I would like to see more detail from naked frame to the insulation, before they put the subflooring on. What is under the insulation?
Interesting and so nice that the house for the most part isn't being exposed to rain, and snow and other weather elements during construction which is much better for the house.
I would love to see a modular home built and also them trimming it out on a sight. Like how they merry the carpeting and the flooring in the kitchen and stuff. Kinda cool process. Thanks Chance!
I'm very familiar with how RVs and park models are made in the factories. I really enjoyed seeing how these homes are made. Please continue showing us these unique videos.
Thanks Chance for showing what's involved in putting these homes together. I love seeing things like this. If you get an opportunity in the future, it'd be great to show what's involved in transporting these homes to the owner's lot, to joining a double-wide together, putting on the roofing and skirting, to the final finished touches ready for the owners to move in.
Very helpful. I’d love to see you do a series focusing on each part of the home - how it’s built, and how the new owner should maintain or repair things as their home ages. Stuff like “all about your home’s windows: how they are built and how to keep them like new” or “how your roof was made and how to make it last”. I’m sure that I’m not the only one who would like a clear guide on how to keep a new mobile home in top notch shape, and you and your factory contacts could give valuable expert advice and info.
Thanks, Chance! That was interesting.I'd love to see more about the type of materials used in the house. 2x6s vs 2x4s, types of floors, how tiles are installed and stuff like that. In other words, more details. 😁
I worked for Champion Homes in Weiser, ID in 1990-92. It was about the time when trailer houses became manufactured homes. Depending on the house, we typically used 2x6 in floors and walls. Interior walls were typically 2x4, sometimes 2x2 for small walls. 2x2 roof rafters, unless it required heavier for snow loads. Black iron for gas lines, 14/2 Romex wiring, fiberglass bat insulating for walls and floor, rock wool for ceiling. I worked in the “tie down” area where we fitted one exterior wall and the roof system. I had to walk the rafters tying in all interior walls to every rafter they crossed with 3” wood screws. We typically could build a complete house in two days (16 hours). In the two years I worked there, I learned every job in the plant. I really liked that job.
We actually have been trying to arrange a tour of Winston... we recently bought a Helicon3.0... the home has been set up for 5 months now and the Winston team just finished up our "punch list" and I couldn't be happier. In a previous video you named Winston your #1 home builder. Now, I completely agree.
@Lucinda Mobley Pounders I'm sure many of these things can be discussed with the dealer when you're ordering the home. I know, if I was to choose a manufactured home, I would work with the dealer and discuss my needs and wants. Better subflooring -- plywood, not cheap stuff, better quality insulation and more of it (saves on the heating and cooling costs in addition to cutting down on the noise), add insulation in the interior walls, flooring choices, customizing the kitchen cabinets, redesigning the bathroom to suit my needs, etc. So many things are up for negotiation; maybe not everything I want but certainly a lot of it. Another option is modular homes that many dealers/manufacturers offer custom-built homes.
We bought our last home, a single wide wind zone 2 Cavalier 16x80 in 1995. It's still standing. We put a metal roof on it after hurricane Michael, although the original roof stayed intact only losing shingles which was expected in 150mph winds. Our new Winston is wind zone 3... it has 2x6 outer walls, 2x4 inner walls, floated drywall throughout, floor joists are 2x6 every 12 inches, which is stronger than the normal 2x8 every 16 or 24 inches... Our metal roof is standard.. For all the bang for our buck that we got from winston, 2280 Sq feet, we would have got half that in a stick built home, and it would have been bare minimum, plain as hell... no fireplace, live edge shelving, can lighting, more cabinets than the law should allow, a shower bigger than most people's entire bathroom,a walk in closet that is so large it has built in dressers.... My job driving a truck puts me going in to some high end neighborhoods that are still expanding... those homes that START at 300k are all 2x4 construction, and all outside walls are osb... so I wouldn't be so quick to discredit manufactured homes for using osb, cuz most stick built are doing the same thing. And, those stick built homes are being rained on constantly... now mold becomes an issue. My home was built in that facility in a controlled environment. Checkmate.
@@chayastaub-krell6601 all of those things are options. You can upgrade most everything. But it also raises the cost.... so if you can afford it, go for it! We upgraded several things on ours.
@Lucinda Mobley Pounders that's your choice. You don't have to like them or live in one. Yes, upgrades cost money. But, if it makes the home more livable for you, then it's worth it. Options and upgrades also cost you in site-built homes. Depending on where you live, you could pay $200K or even $300K or more. I live in Florida and, if I have a choice, it would be a manufactured home from one of the better builders. They are built, not to meet the state housing codes like site-built homes, but to exceed them. For example, site-built homes are built to withstand sustained winds up to 120 mph; manufactured homes up to 160 mph. That's a Cat 5 hurricane. There are so many stories about "regular" homes being destroyed and "tin can trailers" surviving with little to no damage. Any damage was usually awnings, porches, carports -- things attached to the home or adjacent to it. So, again, it's your choice. I was just saying that the things you said weren't in manufactured homes are available.
Kudos to Winston Homes for letting you tour and video their operation. Very very interesting to see the process. 7 days was impressive. Yes, a lot of planning to obtain this time frame along with skills and talents to achieve. It would be fun to hear in more detail each step of the process thus having people understand how these homes are put together. Nice job Chance! Really enjoyed this video.
Chance, Thank you for sharing your tour of the manufacturing plant for Winston homes. It was fascinating to see how large a work area they cover in their construction and how many people are involved in the process of putting a home together. It was interesting to see what is involved in the underneath area including wiring, plumbing, walls cabinets, flooring, windows, doors. I was fascinated at watching how they lift and construct the roof and put the outside finishing on the house, like outside lighting, doors etc. Also was amazed how when they finished cabinets and tubs and floors they sparkled. Thank you again Chance for such a well done tour and explanation of the various aspects of completing a home. You are a master at this. Have a wonderful weekend. Kathy
This video was interesting and informative. You did a great job! Let me suggest that if you decide to do a similar video, perhaps a more in-depth focus on various aspects of construction would provide an interesting show.
Great video it's always nice to see exactly how they make these. If you do another one be sure to show how the CNC machines cut out the windows and doors and all the other things they do when making the walls.
I loved this video!! I love to see how things are made. This video reminds me of when Mr. Rogers would go see how things are made lol. Mr. Chance's Neighborhood y'all!
Hey Chance! Great video! For future videos, I'd like to see a few more things: 1) more in-depth looks at how the subflooring, flooring, walls, roof are built 2) insulation - this is a must to see. A lot of people don't think about this when buying a home but it's so important! Better insulation means lower heating and cooling costs and less (or even no) outside noise. 3) how the interior walls are put together and how they are attached 4) watching appliances, tubes, toilets, sinks, cabinets, etc. being installed 5) seeing how the exterior finishes are done 6) then, later, maybe the process of ordering the home showing different options flooring, cabinets, colors, etc. are chosen, transportation to the buyers property and set up of the home 7) how a modular home is different from a manufactured home and any differences in the process of set up Wow, I'm sorry, I didn't realize how long that list was. I was only brainstorming haha. This video is great as an introduction/overview of the process. Hoping for more!
I'd want to be onsite when my home would be built.... that way I can make sure its done right, to my specs! when people buy these, they need to know exactly what they want... and people need to think about future proofing the home.... what will we need tomorrow!??
Amazing video Chance, really liked it and they even built up one of my fav models ever, the gorgeous Helicon! Thank you, I hope you will post other videos like this from other manufacturers!
That was very interesting to see the process that a manufactured home goes through in its build. It is amazing how large they can be now and how they have developed over the years. They have come a long way from the Ventoura and Smoker two story models and the New Moon used in the movie with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Was also amazed at how clean and orderly the plant was. Thank you Chance for once again bringing something really interesting in the mobile home line and of course a really good presentation as usual.
Since my Father used to sell the wood to these places, we were invited to see them made. My biggest complaint was they do everything the cheapest way possible from wood to finish, unless "Custom" ordered. Still would like to see Tri-wides and T models.
That was so cool to watch the process of these homes being built. I've always wondered what it looks like and how it all comes together. One thing you missed- you should have done the pantry dance while they were building the pantry! Great job as usual Chance!
Chance..Thank u for taking us to see how they are made...all the craftsmanship of their work goes unnoticed ....wow it was awesome....Thats right we need each other..God Bless
Oh wow, to think it’s possible to build an entire house in a week. I can’t believe how small it looks before the walls are put up and how huge it looks once it’s done
I just wish they would insulate the Inside walls, I hate when the walls are so hallow and you can hear every thing from one end of the home to the other. Other than that amazing I love it!
Joseph Hebert, We bought our double wide 20 years ago & we have the plywood flooring & insulated walls. It’s an Indies & I’m not sure if they even make this kind anymore. Are you by any chance from the Louisiana area? We used to know a Paul Hebert from the Abbeville, Lafayette area in Louisiana. By the way, when you order a mobile home, you can request insulation in the walls, plywood flooring, solid wooden doors etc.
Thank you for education us, I learn something how they build mobile home! 7 days, that's real fast , wow! How about two story mobile home and triple mobile home more than 7 days to build to finish? 🤔
The next video of this nature should be the actual instalation of the home on a site. I always wonder how they match both sides to each other in such a perfect way.
What a great video! It was so interesting to see how everything comes together for the finished product. Thanks for taking the time to show us all how great this is. It also was fabulous that it was Winston homes that you got to tour and share with us. Keep them coming. to you and your family....Have a blessed day!!
Thank you chance! I really enjoyed this video. I love to see the process of how the homes are built. Maybe one day, you could do a video on how one is set up. Thanks again, great job!

Oh my! So sorry about your brother's accident. Will be praying for him.
This is a very sad story, unfortunately what happened to your brother in this particular case....
sorry to hear that bro
I’d love to see a single wide being made, freedom homes made ours and it had some flaws once we got it, but they came back and fixed it!!!
Im in process now on my single wide. Hoping for the best
It’s normal for the retailer to have to go out and make some fixes.
Thank goodness they made the repairs.
My husband says every day that it feels like we live in a swanky hotel room 😂

Tour a modular home plant, if you get the chance, Chance. I'd love to see how they build those kinds of houses!
This was incredible, the sheer size of the operation is amazing. Those buildings must be massive.
Thank you!! I’ve never seen inside a mobile home factory, and how the homes are assembled!! Very educational
Been waiting for this one! 7 days is impressive😎🙌🏼
I would love to see them doing more of the inside and also see how you put a modular or double wide together
Really interesting. The process reminds me of how they build planes.
I’ll have to check out a plane video.
I love seeing the homes from start to finish!!! It really makes you appreciate the men that build the homes!!! Thank you so much!!!☺️
Wow, I'm impressed 7 days. Requires excellent team work to get it done. The home was beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us!😊
That really is fast! I wonder if that is for a standard floor plan? If there is a lot of customization- does that slow the process down?
Some factories can build even faster! It’s crazy to think about.
It's really build in 1 hour from start to finish we are building 10 house a day
@@conureron3792 I work for that company and build these homes and it's 1 day to build these homes sometimes less from start to finish we r building 10 homes a day
They build 7/daily
My wife is a project manager for a major home builder. And I can tell you these manufactured homes are built way better than the average track house
That was awesome. Takes so many people to put one of these homes together and everybody has a curtain job to do cool thank you !!
This is really awesome to see, my ex husband worked for a builder in Michigan and the home we had me and the kids got to go in several different times to see it in the different stages was very neat to watch and we loved it even more when it was done 😊
Its amazing how they build these types of houses so fast and last longer than a stick built if taken care of the right way like anything else
Last longer than site built?? No they don't. Find me a 60, 40 hell even 30 year old trailer you want to live in. Not going to happen
This is NOT how I thought this happened!!! I have no idea exactly how I thought mobile homes were made, this just isn't it. I do have to say that the final product was beautiful & so clean looking! And thank you Winston Homes! ❤️
The process that they’re using insures cleanliness…Tge process I imagined them using wasn’t anything like this…😎
I've been wondering how they put these together... Winston is my favorite they make Beautiful homes! Good video ty chance for the information!
Thanks, that was very interesting. I would like to see more about selecting options, buying/financing, and setting up the homes too.
Thanks for the tour and thanks to Winston Homes for letting you do it!
Would love to see how they do those fancy big tiled showers. Great job Chance!
This was fun and it really let's everyone see the actual nuts and bolts (and electric and HVAC, etc.) of what goes into making these homes a reality for the people who buy them.
I think you should make a video on the differences between a modular and manufactured home. A lot of times folks use those term interchangeably and I'm not altogether sure I understand all the differences myself.
Thank you for this very cool "Field Trip"!
Darn you didn't get to open up any cabinets. Ha ha
Modular is built to your local codes like a stick built, but it’s built in a factory and comes in panels. Now there is something called “off frame modular” and “on frame modular,” and I’m not sure what the differences there mean specifically. Manufactured is built to HUD (federal) code.

That’s one of many benefits to purchasing a manufactured home. The building materials are not exposed to the weather.
The insulation in the walls looks like been outside to me!
@@jhondoe4655 Its just not spray painted pink, the pink is a dye.
A house being build outside is not a problem. That is just something the salesmen like to say.

@@chayastaub-krell6601 all of those things are options. You can upgrade most everything. But it also raises the cost.... so if you can afford it, go for it! We upgraded several things on ours.
@Lucinda Mobley Pounders that's your choice. You don't have to like them or live in one.
Yes, upgrades cost money. But, if it makes the home more livable for you, then it's worth it. Options and upgrades also cost you in site-built homes. Depending on where you live, you could pay $200K or even $300K or more.
I live in Florida and, if I have a choice, it would be a manufactured home from one of the better builders. They are built, not to meet the state housing codes like site-built homes, but to exceed them. For example, site-built homes are built to withstand sustained winds up to 120 mph; manufactured homes up to 160 mph. That's a Cat 5 hurricane. There are so many stories about "regular" homes being destroyed and "tin can trailers" surviving with little to no damage. Any damage was usually awnings, porches, carports -- things attached to the home or adjacent to it.
So, again, it's your choice. I was just saying that the things you said weren't in manufactured homes are available.

1) more in-depth looks at how the subflooring, flooring, walls, roof are built
2) insulation - this is a must to see. A lot of people don't think about this when buying a home but it's so important! Better insulation means lower heating and cooling costs and less (or even no) outside noise.
3) how the interior walls are put together and how they are attached
4) watching appliances, tubes, toilets, sinks, cabinets, etc. being installed
5) seeing how the exterior finishes are done
6) then, later, maybe the process of ordering the home showing different options flooring, cabinets, colors, etc. are chosen, transportation to the buyers property and set up of the home
7) how a modular home is different from a manufactured home and any differences in the process of set up
Wow, I'm sorry, I didn't realize how long that list was. I was only brainstorming haha.

Since my Father used to sell the wood to these places, we were invited to see them made. My biggest complaint was they do everything the cheapest way possible from wood to finish, unless "Custom" ordered. Still would like to see Tri-wides and T models.
Basically lipstick on a pig.. The finish looks nice, but you can see from this video they are built like shit..
Thank you Winston Homes! And Chance! Another great video!
Wow that was fascinating! I really am amazed at how fast they can build a home for someone, great team work!
Artisans at work!! That was awesome to see. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this!
Very cool! I really enjoyed this tour, its amazing that it can all be done in just a few days, too! Thanks, Chance, you have a blessed day!
So cool to watch. I have lived in 2 single wides and 2 double wides all my life so far maybe one day I’ll live in a house. Thanks for doing this.
It was very interesting to see how these homes are built!
Very interesting.
Wow that's awesome to see how a mobile home is built from start to finish, so amazing. Love watching your videos Chance.
Factory tours are great. Thanks for sharing Chance
WOW !!!
That’s some operation.
Thank you so much Chance for sharing this video. Amazing !
A shout out to the workers also.
👍👍👍👍👍
That was so cool to watch the process of these homes being built. I've always wondered what it looks like and how it all comes together.
One thing you missed- you should have done the pantry dance while they were building the pantry!
Great job as usual Chance!
This whas really amazing to se how the homes are bildt
It's a big proces
Thank you that you showed us this
Thanks Chance for what you do!
God bless you and your family!
YOU THE MAN!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for showing how the house is put together. That was interesting. What a clean plant, well organized.
Thank you for sharing this. Brings back memories. I used to do the trim for Palm Harbor mobile homes in their plant.
Chance..Thank u for taking us to see how they are made...all the craftsmanship of their work goes unnoticed ....wow it was awesome....Thats right we need each other..God Bless
Wow that was amazing! I can't believe they can put out that many homes in a week! Amazing!
Oh wow, to think it’s possible to build an entire house in a week. I can’t believe how small it looks before the walls are put up and how huge it looks once it’s done
I just wish they would insulate the Inside walls, I hate when the walls are so hallow and you can hear every thing from one end of the home to the other. Other than that amazing I love it!
I bet you can order that
@@4BWVan That's a great idea!
Unfortunately that’s standard in site built homes as well.
I always think the same thing.
Joseph Hebert, We bought our double wide 20 years ago & we have the plywood flooring & insulated walls. It’s an Indies & I’m not sure if they even make this kind anymore. Are you by any chance from the Louisiana area? We used to know a Paul Hebert from the Abbeville, Lafayette area in Louisiana.
By the way, when you order a mobile home, you can request insulation in the walls, plywood flooring, solid wooden doors etc.
Thank you for education us, I learn something how they build mobile home! 7 days, that's real fast , wow! How about two story mobile home and triple mobile home more than 7 days to build to finish? 🤔
The next video of this nature should be the actual instalation of the home on a site. I always wonder how they match both sides to each other in such a perfect way.
Awesome. I love seeing how things are made. Thank you for the tour, Chance! 🙂
Interesting. Glad I watched.
YOU DID A WONDERFUL JOB OF SHOWING US THE HOME FROM START TO FINISH. IT IS SO AMAZING HOW THEY MAKE A HOME. . IT WAS A GOURGOUS HOME . THANK YOU ..
Like poetry in motion, so neat to watch. Thanks for your hard work.
What a great video! It was so interesting to see how everything comes together for the finished product. Thanks for taking the time to show us all how great this is. It also was fabulous that it was Winston homes that you got to tour and share with us. Keep them coming.
to you and your family....Have a blessed day!!
Thanks Chance for sharing this. I always wondered how they were built 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
YES! Been waiting for this video 👍 Thanks Chance!

Thanks! Great video Chance. I enjoyed seeing the process. Never knew how long it took , 7 days! Incredible! ♡
That was fun. Nice job on your first go around. I've toured the Palm Harbor plant in Alabama, it was amazing. Thanks again, Chance. 👍👍👍😎
This is sooooooo cool! It's amazing how they make these beautiful homes! So much technology in use. I wonder what it was like "back in the day". 💜
That was really cool. I had no idea what went into it.
Would like to see the set up a double wide. Particularly how they merge the 2 halves together.
Absolutely amazing! They are very fast and thorough for building such a beautiful home. This was a very informative video, thanks Chance!
My family and I really enjoyed this video. It's fascinating all that goes into building these beautiful homes
Never Seen This Process!!! I really Liked It!!!! Looking Forward To Mines Being built!!! Now I Got A Look Into How It's Done Thanks Chance!!!
Great job! Very cool to see this!!!
Thank you chance! I really enjoyed this video. I love to see the process of how the homes are built.
Maybe one day, you could do a video on how one is set up. Thanks again, great job!
So cool to see a manufacturer home being built love seeing them from start to finish
Love the video
Great video, it crazy how they can make them so nice now. The building process is very cool to see, there are so many steps to get it done.
Very interesting! I can't believe they can get it all done in 7 days, that's crazy.
