Building the Ridgeline III in Lake Tahoe: Modular Efficiency at Its Best

When people think of building a new home, they often imagine months of construction delays, unpredictable weather, and endless coordination. But with modular building, the process looks entirely different—and our latest project, the Ridgeline III in Lake Tahoe, is a perfect example of why.

A Home That Arrives in Pieces—And Comes Together in Hours

The Ridgeline III is a spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit that was designed and built in our Salt Lake City facility. Rather than waiting for every element to be constructed on-site, the home was built in five individual modules. Once complete, each module was carefully transported by truck across state lines, all the way to Lake Tahoe.

Here’s where modular construction shines: in a matter of hours, those five modules were craned into place and joined together, creating the full structure of the home. The only on-site preparation required before delivery? Pouring and setting the foundation.

Why Modular Means More Efficient

Traditional builds often face delays—whether from snow, rain, or even supply chain bottlenecks. With modular construction, 90% of the work happens off-site in a controlled environment. That means no weather delays, more predictable timelines, and higher efficiency.

For the Ridgeline III, while the modules were being built in Salt Lake City, crews were simultaneously preparing the Lake Tahoe foundation. This overlap cut weeks off the timeline, ensuring that as soon as the modules arrived, installation was nearly immediate.

What’s Next for the Ridgeline III?

Right now, a dedicated finishing crew is on-site in Lake Tahoe. Over the next month, they’ll complete the interior and exterior finishes, ensuring every detail reflects the quality and craftsmanship our clients expect. From siding and roofing to flooring and fixtures, this is where the Ridgeline III transforms from a structure into a fully realized home.

And the best part? We’re just getting started. Stay tuned for more updates as the finishing touches bring this Lake Tahoe Ridgeline III to life.
