Tiny house trailer foundations are insulated with 5 to 6 inches of Polyiso R-Max rigid insulation, to provide a floor insulated that is rated to R-32 or R-38. 3/4 inch tongue and groove subfloor are then secured directly to the trailer, to help provide a perfectly flat and strong subfloor to build on.

For that reason, Mitchcraft builds their tiny house structures using either wood frame construction with 2 by 4 walls, 2 by 6 roof rafters (standard), steel stud frame construction using TMFrame framing system from Trailer Made Trailers or SIPs (Structurally Insulated Panels) construction.
