We can manufacture homes, chalets, duplexes, additions, garages and barns, or any building with 2 X 4 or 2 X 6 walls.
Whether you choose from one of our many standard floor plans, or design your own plan, we can help you save 20% to 50% on your new home by using the PMHI building system through CPH. Let us show you how! If you do not see a floor plan you like among our standard floor plans, please use our catalog or other floor plans as a springboard for designing your Dream Home. Almost 90% of the structures we deliver are not from our planned design. They are custom to your lot or your needs. If you are interested in a plan that is not in our catalog, please ask about our custom design service. The success of our business is designing and building your “New Dream Building”.
It has been our pleasure to be in this industry since 1976. We look forward to helping you and your family, just like the thousands of families we have helped throughout California and the Western United States. We were able to help them build their “New Dream Home, Addition, Garage, Barn, Chalet, or Multiple dwelling” with CALIF. PRE-CUT HOMES & Pacific Modern Homes, custom stick home building system.
California Pre-Cut Homes is a very unique building system specializing in the “Owner Builder Buildings”, by panelizing almost any building. We can deliver from California to as far as Canada, Mississippi River, Mexico & over to Hawaii. California Pre-Cut delivers a wall system with or without windows in the walls. Sizes vary from 400 to 40,000 sf residential to commercial buildings. Either modify one of our standard plans or will create a custom plan. We are a “kit home” NOT a modular system the closest system to stick building, thus no disclosure or lower resale compared to the modular systems.
PreCut Homes is can custom panelize almost any design you have in mind. We cater to the Owner Builder but have had many traditional stick builders who have chosen to build using our system. In fact we have had many first time builders use the system and then become general contractors building using our system.
Below you will see the general examples of the shell price using our system to the complete “turn Key price” that is virtually everything included to move in. It is not uncommon to have new customers challenge and ask why the prices are so low. Reason is that there are many unknown parts that could be higher or even lower.
We provide a building system that allows you, the owner, to construct your own project called (sweat equity) or to manage your sub contractors (owner / contractor). We manufacture a quality panelized package, consisting of exterior and interior wall panels, roof trusses, and the necessary lumber, nails and hardware to construct a lockable building. We are not just limited to homes. We do additions, garages, chalets, barns, & multiple dwellings, any structure with 2 X 4 or 2 X 6 walls. The lumber is Dry Douglas Fir studded walls with 19/32″ T1-11 OSB or 3/8″ OSB siding on which you can apply a stucco siding or lap siding. Then we will set your vinyl dual-pane windows with low E glass into the wall with flashing around the window frame. The windows will come directly from Milgard window manufacture, which are custom made to your order. The panels are assembled in the factory for precision fit and then shipped to your job site for construction by you or your contractor.
You are not limited to just our plans. We can work from your plans to create a plan for you. We can also help you with design, drafting, engineering, site plans and Title 24, and anything you need to get a building permit. We can also help you with financing though four different leading institutions.
Over 90% of the projects produced by Calif. Pre-Cut Homes are custom design packages. We have delivered over 1,200 packages consisting of California PreCut Homes, addition, garages, chalets, barns, & multiple dwellings all throughout the Bay Area. Our smallest package was a 10′ x 12′ shed that was up in one day and one of our largest packages was a 22,000 sq. ft. apartment building in downtown Oakland, framed up in 55 days. A 7,000 sq. ft. one-story bed and breakfast retreat on the big island of Hawaii was framed in 5 weeks, as well as a 7,000 sq. ft. two-story house in the Oakland / Piedmont area framed in 4 weeks.
We will be more than happy to work with you in developing a truly custom and affordable plan. You could choose one of our standard plans and run with it, or modify it to fit your needs. If you already have a completed set of plans with a building permit, we will be able to work with them. We take your plans, look them over and tell you if our product will work for your project. We have a one-time charge of $50.00 and need two sets of plans with engineering. We prefer to bid your plans when you have a building permit or about to get a building permit.
California Pre Cut Homes has been the top dealer for Pacific Modern Homes over the past 15 years.
