Has anyone installed them in your mh? We are thinking about it--we have done many homes w hardwood and have all the equipment--we are looking at unfinished--my dd has favorite stain she found--a brown/red combo--we have done her trim and kitchen cabinets and the custom cabinets in mh and she would l...

I was just wondering if that was common---I think they are just making sure work is being done in timely order---and they have been great--we have asked ?'s about things and they give great advice--I think they run into people that do not know what they are doing and try to keep a look out on all th...

When you have a permit--does the code enforcement inspectors do drive bys and do drop in visits,unscheduled--is this how it works in other cities---I am not complaining and they are very nice and we explained that we live 3 hours away and work on the mh every weekend and 3 weeks of vacation so far a...

Susan I would love to see the exterior photos--this is our current project next week we are doing the final work on the exterior and would love to get some ideas--I looked at your deck project photos that were still in progress and can not wait to see the the end result---I know the roof on our deck...

Confused about the floor raised 6 inches--you are sure there was no water--like a flood,or the roof leaking and running down wall and getting under the floor--I use and love odor-x it http://odorxit.com/--I took a chance when I ordered it thinking--yea right this will work--when we got our current p...

We are not done--that is not dry wall in the ceiling--we have many rentals and we use trim where the seams are--much easier to repair if damaged--plus in a mh where the seams meet is usually a problem area--you will see how nice it will look when we are done--this one will be more custom due to it i...

Not done yet but getting closer--ceiling,inside painting but not the trim--all new electric from pole to all new inside--all up to code--replaced all the siding with smart siding--made huge difference in the temp inside home as soon as on side was done you could tell a difference--we were working in...

Welcome to the group and MH ownership--you have got some wonderful advice--we are in the end staged of a total gutting of a 1973 MH for our dd--we had to deal with many bad smells--lol--the mh had been empty for a long time but a tom cat moved in--bad smell does not discribe--I found an answer to ou...

We just got done installing a metal roof---very easy and fast---our first time doing a metal roof- we did 2 roofs in less than 4 hours,including trim--in our area metal is going at 2.19 a liner foot---that is 3 ft wide---there are many colors to choose from--we got a tan and light gray--look for the...

I have a gas dryer--love it,saves me $ 100 a month in electric---do not vent it under your home--it has to be directly vented---take the metal venting for the dryer directly up and out the roof--I think it has to go 2 ft above your ridge vent on the house--do this ASAP--you are getting CO2 directly ...

it is easier to take photos to explain--this is what we are doing next week--but I do not have internet there--we are using masonite--is @ $ 6 for 4x8 sheet, it is like 1/4 thick and very light weight we will prime/paint it,screw it up and cover seams w trim--usually 1 x4 this way we can access it--...

The furnace was removed before we bought the mh--we removed the vents--worthless--when we replaced the floor---we heated w a vent less stove,wo insulation in 5 degree weather this winter--600 sq ft to heat--we were toasty---since then we replaced all windows,insulated all,drywall so it will not take...

Not using drywall on ceilings--cause problems in our other mh--same type/yr--the way we finish the walls/ceilings the end product you will see we know what were doing
