How long will it take before I can move in?
The planning process sets the pace. We can move as swiftly or as slowly as you wish. Once the planning is done and the house is ready for construction, it generally takes about five months to a year until you can move in.

Do your houses have basements? Can they be built on a slab or pilings?
We will design your house to suit the site, regional construction norms, and, of course, your lifestyle. Our products pose no limitations on foundation type.

Do Acorn Home, Deck House, and dwell homes by Empyrean meet local building codes?
Our homes meet national building codes. In some areas of the country, local codes pose other restrictions for specific reasons (seismic or snow load requirements), and we will work with your builder to design and engineer your house properly in order to meet those local variances.

Do I have a choice of builder? Is there a builder in my area?
The choice of builder is entirely yours. Your Empyrean representative can recommend a local builder who has experience building our houses successfully, if there is one in your area. If not, or if you prefer to use another contractor, we offer special orientation and consulting programs, which will train them on our unique system and ensure that your home is constructed to our exacting standards.

What services and training are available for builders?
Once you’ve completed the Builder Orientation and have successfully completed an Empyrean home, you will be listed among the trained builders who specialize in Empyrean brand homes. This designation will position you for both new construction jobs and home maintenance projects on existing Empyrean homes.
Empyrean Builder Services include:
Builder Orientation seminars
Estimating and specification guidance
Fully-documented detail and construction manuals
Toll-free Builder Services hotlines
Prompt attention to construction questions

Who is responsible if there is a problem during construction?
Empyrean’s thorough builder orientation process and quality control systems are designed to prevent on-site construction problems. If your builder is new, we will pay for a day of training at our Massachusetts facility on how to assemble your house. In the event that a problem does arise on-site, your Empyrean Builder Services Manager will work directly with your builder to achieve a satisfactory resolution.
