Our Component Package

Sunlight Homes provides a component package of goods and services. Our services include custom residential design that results in a complete set of plans stamped by a structural engineer with a stamp from your state. We also supply the rough, exterior shell of your home—walls, roof, windows, doors and framing lumber.

Every Sunlight home comes as a Component Package that is assembled and completed by a local builder. Our clients choose their own builders and contract directly with them. Some have chosen to owner-build their homes. We assist our clients with this process as needed.

Our Component Package includes the most important components of a quality, sustainable home— the design and the structural shell. The following materials are included in our Component Package:
