Wherever you are in your home buying journey, it’s common to have a lot of questions. For example, you may want to know where you can look at homes online or in person, or what your local home consultant can help you with. We also know many of our home buyers have questions about what comes with our new homes and what are some potential options or upgrades.

Regardless of the floor plan or home construction type you choose; you can trust that your Clayton home was designed and built with quality and durability in mind. We also partner with some of the world’s leading home building brands to create homes that have stylish, long-lasting, and innovative features.

We are committed to helping you find the home that’s a perfect fit for your needs, and with that in mind, let’s break down some of those details and start answering all of your questions.

Whether you're shopping for a site-built, CrossMod®, or modern manufactured home, a new construction home from Clayton will always include a brand new roof and walls, electrical systems, HVAC systems, new materials, and fresh finishes.

In addition, some of the specific brands and materials we use in our homes include:

  • Honeywell Home® thermostats

  • Frigidaire® or Samsung® appliances

  • Shaw® carpeting in homes with carpet

  • Kwikset® door hardware

  • SmartComfort® by Carrier HVAC systems, electric heat pumps or gas furnaces
