Scherer Brothers Lumber Company is a family-owned business that has been furnishing building materials to the Twin City construction community since 1930. For more than 40 years, Scherer Brothers has manufactured their own engineered floor and roof trusses.
AVA is one of the largest modular manufacturing facilities in North America. They can produce up to two million square feet of finished commercial grade buildings per year. They design, engineer, and manufacture in a state-of-the-art building. They can reduce the construction timeline by as much as 50%.
Utilizing a hybrid construction approach, the AVA team uses a combination of modular, panelized, SIPs, and site-built construction methods to produce innovative designs. As a result, our projects are beautiful, energy-efficient, and well-built in a time-sensitive process that exceeds the high expectations of today's demanding commercial stakeholders.
