- Elegant hardwood molding packages
- Installed forced air heating systems
- Distinctive kitchen designs with staggered overhead cabinets and a bump-out at the kitchen sink
- Pre-installed plumbing and water lines

Every Cavco - Emlenton home is built in a controlled environment using advanced equipment, with daily quality checks and expert craftsmanship in every step. What you’ll get in your Cavco - Emlenton home is lasting value, comfort and style from the start.
By building homes 'inside' in a factory rather than 'outside' in the elements, Cavco - Emlenton eliminates climate problems that can affect home materials, an especially important issue in the Northeast. Cavco - Emlenton builds consistently, year-round, without weather delays. By reducing delays in construction, our homeowners can move into their homes faster.
Quality is a key reason why people choose Cavco - Emlenton manufactured and modular homes. Our homes are built to state and local building codes. Independent third-party inspection agencies provide another level of quality control, inspecting and approving our homes while they are being built.
Emlenton Wins 2025 “Biggest Reduction in TRIR” Safety Award
We are proud of our team members that helped us earn the 2025 national Safety Now award for the largest reduction in Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR). This was awarded celebrated cutting recordable injuries by an impressive 76.64%. That's the kind of accomplishment worth celebrating.
“I am very proud of the team for the success of the safety program,” said Scott Kennemuth, General Manager, Cavco - Emlenton. “The safety committee has done a tremendous job changing the safety culture. It's not one person or one leader that does it all – it's everybody taking responsibility and moving the ball forward. Going from last in the company to where we ended is a testament to the team here at Cavco - Emlenton.”
