Built for Longevity: Durability and Material Excellence
When you look at a Morton home's exterior, you see everything finished to perfection. No wood is visible on the exterior; everything is trimmed and taken care of. Morton homes feature Morton High Rib steel, which is 0.019 inches thick—25% thicker than what other builders typically use. This commercial-grade steel is coated with FLUOROFLEX® paint that provides superior protection from fading, chalking, and color change. This ensures that your residential building investment is protected over the long haul.
Superior Fastening Techniques
Morton Buildings uses stainless steel internal drive screws for fastening the steel, which guarantees that these fasteners won't rust, thereby protecting your investment. These fasteners are accompanied by stainless steel washers and an EPDM (rubber) washer for a secure seal. This meticulous attention to detail in fastening techniques sets Morton apart from other builders and custom home contractors with a longer lasting and better-looking building.
Innovative Roofing Techniques
Morton’s roofing technique places fasteners on top of the high rib of the steel, away from the natural flow of water. This prevents water from running over the fasteners, reducing the risk of leaks and ensuring long-lasting protection of your home or barndominium. Many other builders place their roof fasteners in flat areas, directly in the path of water runoff, which can lead to problems over time. Morton’s approach is designed to safeguard your home for the future.
Elegant and Practical Design
The design of a Morton home can incorporate several aesthetic features such as cultured or Versetta Stone® wainscot, which not only adds a touch of elegance but also protects the lower portion of the steel siding from dents and damage, perfect for high-traffic family homes or barndominiums with outdoor equipment. This design choice ensures that your home or barndominium remains both beautiful and durable.
Morton windows feature wide trim that covers all exterior fasteners. This results in a cleaner look and better weather tightness, providing superior protection against the elements. Unlike other builders who use J channels that expose cut edges of steel and windows, Morton’s design ensures everything is encased and covered, offering a seamless and polished appearance.
