Need advice to prevent another disaster
This past January our water lines froze and shattered into tiny little slivers of cpvc pipe and it took forever to find someone to replace and repair our water lines, not to say it cost an arm and leg (the guy did not live up to what he told us he would do) plus he did not repair the under belly as ...

Re: Underbelly and insulation
He's the one that backed out after telling me he will take care of it all. It was my understanding when you hire someone for a job and especially what he did they he would be responsible for also closing replacing the insulation and closing the belly back up. He said he had some health issues but he...

Re: waterlines and heat ducts
Thank you for your responses. Yes I did insist on pexs pipes to replace the damaged ones. I was just concerned when he said he was not going to rehang them. I always heard they needed to be hug by the heat ducts and wanted to make sure he was doing things right.

Perimiter skirting/cinder blocks
Hi JD and Gregg I was wondering once a MH is in place and you have vinyl skirting on your home and you want to change it out to cinder blocks how involved do you think that's going to be, is it possible and can it be done without moving the home. Sorry have not been on here for a long while and thes...

Re: Should siding be sealed? Light shows all the way around.
This past tuesday I had an electrian come and move some outlets and install new GFI's on the studs as we are installing new cabinets and when he removed the thin drywall. The insulation that was in the walls did not fill the cavity and at the bottom of the wall where it meets the floor you can see a...

Re: Should siding be sealed? Light shows all the way around.
I have that same problem and you can see the outside light and in the winter you can feel a draft. I also am wondering if this can be sealed with some thing other then insulation. I noticed your wiring is on the outside of the studs is that normal for all mobel homes. For some reason i thought it wo...
