Expandify homes include engineering suitable for H1-class soil as standard — the most common soil classification for stable, flat residential lots.
Engineering upgrades are required for:
- H2, P, or E class soils (expansive, reactive, or poor-bearing)
- Highly sloped land that exceeds the standard footing tolerances
- Alternative footings like screw piles or piers
These engineering changes:
- Are assessed and priced during your $5,000 Site Assessment
- Require modified structural drawings, footing layouts, and builder coordination
- May affect installation cost and certifier submission requirements
All changes are reflected in your engineering pack and final quote. Expandify cannot proceed to contract without footing confirmation for your site.
