Quartz Transport & Install offers turn-key manufactured home installation for homeowners and private investors across the Southeast. Whether this is your first manufactured home or your tenth investment property, the installation process can be complicated to navigate on your own. We manage the full installation so you do not have to figure out who to call, what to schedule, or what comes next.

As a turn-key specialist, QTI handles all steps of the manufactured home installation process in-house, and with one point of contact, including:

• Demolition of damaged or condemned homes when a site requires it
• Site preparation
• Footers
• Transport of single-wide and double-wide homes
• Home set and installation, including placement, leveling, anchoring, and structural securing
• Skirting
• Interior trim
• Exterior trim and siding completion
• Decking, porches, steps, and ramps

Whether you are placing your first manufactured home or your tenth investment property, QTI handles the full installation with one team, one dedicated project manager, and clear communication throughout the process, from the first site walk through the final inspection.

What homeowners and investors are solving for

Most homeowners and private investors have not installed a manufactured home before. There are permits, site work, inspections, utility hookups, and a specific order everything has to happen in. A typical installation involves grading contractors, transporters, plumbers, electricians, and more, all on separate schedules and all needing coordination. Without an experienced install partner, the homeowner ends up as the one making sure everyone shows up in the right order and no scope is left out at the end.

The right install partner takes that coordination burden off entirely. That is what we are built to do.

How turn-key installation helps

Turn-key installation brings every part of the on-site work under one company: demolition, site preparation, foundation, transport, set, finish work, skirting, and decking. For a homeowner or investor, that means one contract instead of six, one dedicated project manager coordinating the entire project, one pricing scope defined before the work starts, and one team responsible for delivering a finished, move-in ready home.

Communication is proactive. You will hear what is happening now, what is coming next, and when. If something changes, you hear about it from us before you have to ask. Scope and pricing are defined up front, so the goal is no phone calls that begin with “so we ran into something.”

Common project types

Manufactured home installations we regularly complete for homeowners and investors include:

• First-time home installation. You have purchased a home from a dealer or manufacturer and need it installed on your property. We handle permits, site prep, delivery, set, and finish work through final inspection and Certificate of Occupancy.
• Home replacement. Your existing manufactured home needs to come out and a new one goes in. We manage demolition, site prep, and the full installation of the replacement under one project.
• Placing a home on private land. For owners putting a manufactured home on land for the first time, there is more involved than most people expect: grading, well and septic, utility runs, driveway access, and permitting. We help you understand the full scope early so there are no surprises down the road.
• Investment and rental properties. For investors placing homes to rent or resell, speed and cost predictability matter. We deliver a professional installation on a defined timeline so the asset starts generating income sooner.
• Relocation. Moving an existing manufactured home from one site to another involves transport, site prep at the new location, and a full re-installation. We coordinate the entire move.

Why homeowners and investors work with QTI

For homeowners and investors, a few things matter when selecting an installation partner:

• We make a complicated process simple. You do not need to become an expert in manufactured home installation. We explain what is happening, why, and what to expect — and then we handle it.
• We treat every project with care. We work with large operators and institutional clients, but we bring the same professionalism, communication, and project management to a single home on a family’s property. Every project gets a dedicated project manager and the same level of attention.
• We are licensed, insured, and qualified. Quartz is fully licensed and insured in NC, SC, TN, and GA, and we are a FEMA and NCORR qualified contractor. You are working with a professional team, not a patchwork of Craigslist subcontractors.
• We have done this before. We install manufactured homes every week, across multiple states, for clients ranging from first-time homeowners to national operators. That experience means fewer surprises, better planning, and a smoother project for you.
• We are upfront about cost and scope. Before any work starts, you understand what is included, what it costs, and what the timeline looks like. We do not lowball to win the job and make it up in change orders.

How the work moves

Homeowner and investor projects with QTI follow a four-step process:

1. Site evaluation. We visit your property and assess the site: access, grading, utilities, permits needed, and any conditions that could affect the install. This is where we figure out the real scope, not just the easy version.
2. Scope and planning. Based on the evaluation, we put together a clear scope of work and pricing. You will know exactly what is included before you sign anything.
3. Project execution. Your project manager coordinates every phase: site prep, delivery, setting, utilities, trim, skirting, and inspections. You do not have to manage any of it, and you get proactive updates throughout.
4. Final inspection and handoff. We manage the inspection process and hand you a completed, move-in ready home with a Certificate of Occupancy.

Disaster recovery

QTI is an authorized FEMA and NCORR contractor and partners with disaster recovery agencies and nonprofits on housing replacement work across the Carolinas.

About QTI

Quartz Transport & Install is a licensed set contractor and an authorized manufactured home dealer with offices in Asheville, NC and Hartsville, SC. With a full-time, in-house team and vetted subcontractors, we install single and double wide manufactured homes across the Southeast. If needed, as an authorized dealer, we can also help clients procure a home. Our involvement in a project can begin at any point, including before a home has been purchased.

We built our business around the turn-key model because the alternative left customers coordinating a string of separate vendors, navigating handoffs between them, and managing a disjointed schedule. A single team working under one schedule and one point of contact makes the installation process more efficient and less stressful for the client.

QTI is a Quartz Properties company. Together, the Quartz Properties companies deliver innovative housing solutions across the Southeast. Alongside QTI, the Quartz Properties companies include Quartz Modular, which provides modular set work and modular general contracting for builders, developers, and housing organizations; Quartz Communities, a residential community developer; and Quartz Rebuild, an agency and non-profit partner for repair and retrofit solutions.
