lazy man way is to stay inside watch tv and don't look at the skirting. really though if you don't have any plants around the house or animals or kids. bleach and water if it's green then theres no way your getting out of it without a little sweat. spray cleaners that degrease or kill mold ,but i li...

i would agree with greg, my kids m/h is on a corner lot at the base of the mountain. we have a water fall in the back when it rainsand you can watch the river go under the shed through the door and then run under the house. we did drainage 3 inch where it pools under the house and cut the mountain b...

i agree replace and you have the chance to look for any problems under the sideing. rotted frames or sheathing,and repair it ,plus aluminum is high for recycleing here in pa. if you recycle it you can recoup some of the cost of the vinle sideing, make sure you use a weather wrap over the sheathing t...

i think you're talking about a crown in the floor. the roof is supported by the side walls witch are supported by the rim jiost of the floor.because there are only 2 metal beams under the trailer and some out riggers to support the floor.the floor joists bow over time under the weight of the roof. i...

i agree with jd . aside from rebuilding the deck or raiseing the trailer that's about theeasiest and cheapest way out. you really don't want to have the roof of the deck and the sofet attached permanetly . seen many problems with that. frost heave and wall stress from the added weight of deck roof ....

what year is your home? if it's 94 or older it may have quest tubeing . there was a recall on that brand because of leaks and pruduct failer. i had quest in my 94 astro, but don't anymore. pex red and blue. not sure of the legality of any claims because i didn't know at the time i replumbed.

conventional ? these are no diffrent .just think of a stick home with no foundation put on a flat bed built with tooth picks and staples, heh heh just my 2 cents, yeah coffee's workin.

hello , the water supply lines may be a plastic type supply with plastic fitting. for all the sinks and supllies for the toilet i would up grade with a shut off valve on both hot and cold this way you can use convetional supply lines to the sink and other supllies. you can crimp the fitting or use s...

i hate the projects where you go full steam and then you run out of time or money ,but you always have plenty of both to start some other project.

hello i used behr premium plus, and zingglers primer, on vinle sideing with aluminum softit. been a year and it's still like new. prep is everything.

there's always a way to make it fit.heh heh, but i would remeasure the door and then remeasure the opening. possible it's the wrong size
