All UTR-built homes include the four basic requirements for secure coastal living as well as attractive standard amenities:

1. Elevated on steel reinforced concrete piers & floors
2. Steel reinforced concrete exterior walls (ICF) for maximum safety and strength
3. Hurricane-rated roof with 120 mph, 50 year warranty steel shingles
4. 120 mph hurricane-tested double pane windows and doors.

What features make our Upon the Rock Construction homes as good as possible for coastal living?

....well....Let's look at the combination of piers, ICF exterior, faux stucco finishes, trim, hurricane windows and doors, and superior roof....and superb curb appeal with this array of desirable features!!!!

Take a look at this great combination and you will be pleasantly surprised. Check out this slide show of the building process at one of our homes in Long Beach, Mississippi. Click on the photo above.

But once you move into the home and live in the home for a while....then you will really KNOW how good it is. UTR combines a combination of higher, stronger, cooler, quieter, more attractive, and better code compliance than any other home under $500K on the coast of Mississippi. We believe a UTR built home is exactly what's required for safe, comfortable amd economical coastal living.
