Re: Clayton doublewide - roof sagging/installed wrong

Yeah, its pretty bad. If I can figure out how to post photos from my phone, I will. The ceiling has always looked like something was wrong but every time we pointed it out we were told, "oh that is just from the house settling, its normal". Once the old shingles came off and work started o...

Re: Clayton doublewide - roof sagging/installed wrong

So it turns out my house is sitting perfectly level. The gentleman who came out to give me a quote looked at it and said it was indeed installed wrong and its the weight of the front porch alcove that is pulling my roof apart at the marriage line. I am beyond pissed at Clayton homes. The local manag...

Clayton doublewide - roof sagging/installed wrong

I bought my home new from Clayton in 2008. We are having a new roof put on right now due to constant problems with it. The roofer has informed us that there is a 6 inch gap along the midline that he thinks is from the ground shifting. My husband just called someone about re leveling the house and be...

Adjustable steel piers and relevelling

I have a doublewide Clayton that we bought new in 2008. We live in Texas just outside of Houston. The house is supported by stacked cinder blocks on concrete pads (footers?) I'm not terribly sure of the terminology. My roof has been leaking along the center line but no shingles are missing and I can...

Intertherm S5QD-D42KA condensor fan going out

The fan in our condensor unit keeps stopping. The AC continues to make noise and air flows but it does not get cold. We've shut it off overnight and then turned it back on the next day and it started up fine but then the fan stopped after a few hours. My husband spun it with a stick and it started s...

RE: My floor is floating!

I crawled all around under my house before calling and could not find any holes or obvious damage to the underbelly. I did find some of my missing skirting that Hurricane Ike blew off though so that was cool. The floor still floats with all the skirting on though. The repair guy just left and he sai...

My floor is floating!

A few days ago we turned off our air conditioner and opened the windows in our doublewide. This is something we do often but this time the vinyl floor in the kitchen/dining room area floated up from the floor. You could walk on it and it would go back down and rise again once you were no longer stan...

Toilet refill time after water line break

Hi, I have a new 2008 Clayton doublewide. Two days ago the we had to shut off the water at our well for about 6 or 7 hours in order to replace a broken section of water pipe. Now the toilet in the master bathroom takes an extremely long time to refill. The water pressure is normal in the rest of the...
