Thank you, our water is so hard it had to be dilluted to show up on the water tester. we bought a softner but just never installed it because it would take alot to clean it up. As far as switching to gas, his mom has hot water heat and they installed their water heater in the seventies when the hous...

Thanks everyone for your help. Jeff, how did you do yours? through the skirting. Do I just cut a hole and attach one of those vents to it?

Has anyone ever did this. How big of a job would it be to do this. Our water is so hard that they would have to dillute it to get it to show on the test kit. We have to replace our heating element once to twice a year. It has so much lime that you can't hardly get the element out and you sure can't ...

Hi, we live in a mobile home too. I do have to cats in the house and plenty outside. I also bought some poison called boot hill. I get it at the local fertilizing company. The company that sprays and fertilizes the fields. It's really good stuff. You can buy it buy individual packets or by the bucke...

Can anyone tell me why anybody would cut a whole in the floor and run the vent down under the trailer? This one was like that when we bought it. There is a plate on the wall already behind the dryer it looks like it is about a ft. off the floor. The vent would go up hill. Wouldn't that cause the lin...

Wow!!!! Your remodeling job looks great!!!. Wished mine looked like that. Were having wh problems too. Ours are from the water being to hard. At least once a year we have to replace the heating element. It's not fun when you can't get it to drain because there's so much lime in the bottom. Were thin...

The tile that I'm using is not ceramic. It's 12x12 squares of heavy lanoleum. Very flexable. They come 20 to a box. Just peel and stick.

This tile is just flexable squares.They are alot heavier than regular stick downs. You can still cut it with scissors or carpenters knife. The edges are more rounded off than just straight cut. I'll send some pics. when I start. My mom's floors is not completely level and it really looks good. My br...

Thanks so much Arlo. I'm just going to clean my floor really good (it's lanoleum) and stick the tile down over it. I'm really nearvous about doing it and the thought of taking up that small trim around the floor without breaking it and what to do when I come to the next room because it all hooks tog...

I was wondering if anybody has ever used Designer's Image flooring. They are square stick down tile with rounded edges? My mom put it over her old floor in her house and it looks great. So far not one problem. I went and bought some but didn't get quite enough. I got it at Menard's. I haven't starte...

Yanita, If you really like cats, I've got around twenty some and they are all fed good. No mice either. Ha ha. Thought mabey you might like a few more. I'd love to have a shrub rose but buy the time i got done with everything else, it might have to wait till next spring. I really want to add flowers...

Along our lane there's a curve up into the drive and I planted a red bud, a lynwood gold forsythia, some ornamental grass, and lined the curve with the rocks, added an old crock we found in the creek and some landscaping lights. I want to add some lights along the trailer also. Don't know if I can g...

I became a member back in the winter. I spent the whole winter looking at what would be the best plants for my landscape. I am a total beginner at this. It really didn't turn out to bad. I did add some trees for shade also. I'm still not done but got a good start. With the rain this year the plants ...

The subject of the grey trailer. I was looking for what plant that would be fast growing and preferrably some everygreens, some type of shrub under windows and mabey something that would grow pretty tall where there are no windows. Something to fill the big corner space of the porch on the left hand...
