Inside the Factory
HOW IT'S BUILT
From steel frame to front door.
Every Stackwell home follows the same precise production process. Here's what happens between your order and your move-in date.
STAGE 01
THE FACILITY
Built for scale. Built for precision.
Our factory operates a dedicated production line for every home we build. With the space, equipment, and team to run multiple builds simultaneously, we don't cut corners to meet deadlines. We build the capacity to meet them properly.
STAGE 02
FLOOR FRAME PRODUCTION
Every home starts from the ground up.
Steel floor frames are engineered, cut, and assembled to exact specifications before a single wall is raised. The foundation of your home is precision-built before it ever reaches your property.
STAGE 03
STRUCTURAL FRAMING
Strength built into every wall.
Wall frames are fabricated in sequence, inspected, and staged along the production line. Each panel is designed to interlock with the next, creating a structural system that is both resilient and consistent across every build.
STAGE 04
MODULE ASSEMBLY
Your home taking shape.
Frames become modules. Modules become rooms. At this stage your home transitions from components to a recognisable structure, moving through the line until the shell is complete and ready for fit-out.
STAGE 05
CONTAINERIZATION
Packed. Protected. Ready to move.
Completed homes are carefully packed into shipping containers and prepared for transit to your site. Every container is loaded to our own standards, not a freight carrier's. Your home travels the way it was built — with intention.
STAGE 06
THE FINISH
The details that make it a home.
Inside every Stackwell home you'll find considered finishes, not afterthoughts. From the wet room to the hardware, every material and fixture is selected for longevity and everyday livability. This is what the production line is working toward.
STAGE 07
THE RESULT
Your home. On your land. Ready to live in.
This is what the factory floor, the steel frames, and the 12 weeks of work add up to. A home that is architecturally resolved, structurally sound, and ready the moment it arrives. Built somewhere else. Built for you.

DESIGN YOUR HOME
Build your aesthetic.
Choose your colours and finishes. See your selections update in real time.
We design and deliver architecturally considered homes that bring clarity, efficiency, and permanence to a category often defined by compromise. Our focus is simple: create spaces that feel as intentional as they are intelligent—homes that elevate everyday life without unnecessary complexity.
Beginning with Accessory Dwelling Units, Stackwell offers a refined approach to modern housing. Each home is designed as a complete system—spatially efficient, aesthetically resolved, and built to integrate seamlessly into its environment. The result is housing that feels both elevated and effortless.

THE CHALLENGE
America needs more homes. We're here to help provide them.
The United States is short by an estimated 3.8 million homes. With mortgage rates at their highest levels in over two decades, the path to homeownership has moved further out of reach for millions of families. Not because they don't want a home — but because the homes available don't meet their needs or their budget.
Stackwell exists to change that. We build homes that are architecturally considered and priced for the real world — because access to quality housing shouldn't depend on circumstance.
OUR PURPOSE
Beyond how our homes are built is why they exist.
Our process rethinks how homes are made. Through modular construction, we achieve a level of precision, speed, and consistency that traditional building cannot match. This allows us to deliver with confidence—reducing timelines, minimising waste, and maintaining uncompromising quality.
Stackwell is designed for a new way of living—one that values flexibility, independence, and long-term thinking. Whether creating additional space, generating income, or reshaping how land is used, our homes are built to adapt alongside the people who live in them.
OUR COMMITMENT
Built by people who've seen what happens when companies get it wrong.
Stackwell was founded by a team who spent years working inside the modular and prefab housing industry. We've watched promising companies take deposits from hopeful customers and collapse before those homes were ever delivered. The disappointment, the financial loss, the broken trust — we've seen it firsthand.
That experience shaped a commitment we don't take lightly: your deposit goes directly and exclusively toward the production and delivery of your home. Nothing else. From the moment your order is placed, your home is funded and committed. If anything were ever to happen to Stackwell as a business, your home wouldn't be caught up in it. It's already taken care of.
We've seen what happens when companies don't operate this way. We made sure we never would.
We are not simply building structures. We are creating a more considered way to live.

The Product
Stackwell homes are architect-designed modular homes built to US electrical and plumbing codes, manufactured off-site and delivered as a complete kit to your location. Every component arrives pre-fabricated and numbered, ready for your licensed builder to assemble. The result is a high-quality, permanent home built faster and with more precision than traditional construction.
We currently offer three models: The Rise (studio, 420 sq ft, from $80,000), The Ridge (1 bedroom, 532 sq ft, from $90,000), and The Crest (2 bedroom, 749 sq ft, from $100,000). All three are available now. Full floor plans and specifications are available to download on each model page.
The kit includes everything needed to build and finish your home — structural components, wall and roof panels, windows, doors, insulation, flooring, bathroom fixtures, kitchen joinery, ceilings, linings, guttering, and all electrical and plumbing components configured to US code. Appliances are not included.
Bathroom and kitchen fixtures are included as standard. Appliances (such as oven, cooktop, refrigerator, and dishwasher) are not included and are to be sourced and installed by yourself or your contractor.
ICC stands for International Code Council — the body that sets the residential building standards used across the United States. ICC certification means our homes have been independently assessed against the International Residential Code (IRC), the same standard that governs site-built homes. For you as a buyer, this means the home arrives with recognised third-party verification of its quality and safety. It gives permit authorities greater confidence in the product, and it means lenders and insurers can treat it as equivalent to a traditionally built home.
Floor plan layouts are fixed. Each model is engineered as a complete system, and structural changes are not available. You can personalise the exterior aesthetic by choosing from a range of cladding colours and finishes — currently available in both black and white tones. These selections are made during the ordering process and have no impact on pricing.
This is not something we currently offer. Each Stackwell model is designed as a self-contained dwelling. If you have specific requirements around size or future expansion, get in touch and we can discuss your options.
Pricing & What's Included
Every Stackwell price includes the full home kit and international shipping to your nearest US port. Nothing more is added to that figure. What you pay is what you get: a complete, fully specified home delivered to port.
Beyond the kit price, you will need to budget for the following (arranged and paid for by you directly):
Delivery from your nearest US port to your site (arranged by Stackwell Homes, paid by you)
Site preparation, levelling, and earthworks
Concrete foundation and footings
Licensed builder engagement and assembly labour
Local permit fees and inspections
Utility connections (power, water, sewer)
Appliances
Port-to-site delivery can be estimated before you commit to anything.
Payments are split across four stages: 30% deposit to begin your permit plans, 20% due when plans are approved and production begins, 25% due when the home is on its way to the US, and 25% final payment when the home reaches your site.
We don't have lending partners at this stage. Financing is arranged independently by the buyer. Because Stackwell homes are ICC certified and built to the same code standards as site-built homes, they are treated as permanent structures for lending purposes. We recommend speaking to your lender about a construction loan or HELOC, and mentioning that the home holds ICC certification.
The Process
The process has four phases. First, you choose your model, provide your site details, and pay your 30% deposit — we then prepare site-specific, permit-ready engineering plans for your location. Second, you receive your plans within approximately 4 weeks and submit them to your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for approval. Once approved, you pay the 20% production deposit and your home enters manufacturing. Third, while your home is being built (approximately 12–16 weeks), you engage your builder and complete all site preparation. Finally, once the home arrives at your site, your builder assembles it using our detailed videos and manuals.
From your initial deposit, allow approximately 4 weeks for permit plans, then 12–16 weeks from permit approval to delivery at your site. This 12–16 week timeline applies to our 26 primary delivery states. If your site is outside those 26 states, please allow an additional 4–6 weeks on top of the standard timeline for extended shipping logistics. Assembly typically takes a further 10–14 days for a team of 3–5 contractors. The total timeline from deposit to move-in is typically 5–6 months for primary states and 6–8 months for extended delivery states, depending on your local permit approval speed.
You'll need to have a site identified and be able to provide its details (location, dimensions, and any relevant site conditions). It's also worth confirming the zoning of your land supports the intended use before committing. You don't need a builder engaged at this stage — that can happen during the permit and production phase.
If your permit application is rejected, we will review the feedback from your AHJ and make any required amendments to the plans at no additional cost. If the home ultimately cannot proceed due to permit failure, your deposit is refunded in full minus $3,000 to cover engineering costs incurred.
Once your deposit is paid and plans are underway, cancellation is not available beyond the permit rejection scenario described above. We recommend thoroughly reviewing your site, zoning, and local requirements before placing a deposit. Our team is happy to help you assess these before you commit — just get in touch.
Permits & Zoning
Yes. A permit is required to legally install and occupy a Stackwell Home. We provide you with a complete, permit-ready engineering plan set tailored specifically to your site, which you submit to your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). If your AHJ requests changes, we make amendments to the plans at no extra cost.
You, or your contractor, lodge the permit application yourself with your local authority. We do all the technical heavy lifting — our engineering team produces a site-specific, fully compliant plan set ready for submission. If amendments are required, we handle those too.
Before placing a deposit, we recommend confirming the following for your site:
Whether your property is subject to HOA (Homeowners Association) restrictions, which may affect design or placement
Whether there are any size or setback restrictions on your lot
Whether the property is heritage listed, which can affect what can be built on it
If a primary dwelling already exists on the lot, your local ADU rules may specify the maximum allowable size of a secondary dwelling — check this against the model you're considering
Your local planning department can confirm these details for your specific site.
We deliver to all 50 US states. Our 26 primary delivery states benefit from our standard 12–16 week production-to-delivery timeline. If your site is outside those 26 primary states, delivery is still available — just allow an additional 4–6 weeks for extended shipping logistics. Get in touch and we'll confirm the timeline for your location.
Delivery & Installation
Your site needs to be levelled and cleared before the kit arrives. A concrete footing/foundation must be poured per the engineering drawings we provide. Utility trenching and connections should also be planned in advance. Your builder will guide you on the precise site readiness requirements based on your specific location and model.
You need a licensed general contractor experienced in construction or modular assembly. We don't have a preferred installer network at this stage — your builder will be sourced independently. We provide full assembly videos, manuals, and technical documentation to support them, and our team is available throughout the build phase to answer any questions.
Yes. A crane is required to lift and position the wall panels and structural components during assembly. Your contractor will arrange this as part of the build process.
We take full responsibility for any components damaged in transit. If anything arrives damaged, we will replace it and ship the replacement at our cost, with no charge to you.
Warranty & Support
All Stackwell home components are covered by a 1-year warranty from the date of delivery. If a covered component fails or is found to be defective within that period, we will replace it and ship the replacement to you at our cost. The warranty covers the components that come with your home. Installation and labour is the responsibility of your builder, and any workmanship warranty will be between you and your contractor.
Yes. Our team is available throughout your warranty period for any component-related questions or claims. You can reach us at contact@stackwellhomes.com or +1 (302) 256-3702.
Use Cases
Yes, subject to your local zoning and permit approval. Stackwell homes are built to full US residential code standards and are designed to function as permanent dwellings.
Yes — this is one of the most common use cases for Stackwell homes. Regulations around ADUs vary by state and municipality, so confirm the allowable size and setback requirements for your specific lot before ordering.
Whether you can operate a short-term rental depends on your local council or municipal rules, any applicable HOA restrictions, and state-level regulations — these vary significantly across the US. Stackwell doesn't impose restrictions on how you use your home, but we recommend checking your local rules before purchasing with this intent.
A Stackwell Home can be adapted for off-grid use — solar power, battery storage, rainwater collection, and alternative wastewater systems are all compatible with the structure. These modifications are not something we supply or configure at the moment; they would be arranged and installed by your contractor as part of the build. Check local regulations on off-grid systems before proceeding.
HOW IT WORKS
