[wilburton911]

I...hate....partical floors.....i am having to tear out ALOT of my floors that got wet....



[baseballgrader]

@wilburton911 I hate them to but it makes me work. Some of the newer trailors are made better now. It is an easy fix. Just watch my videos it will help I have lots of them on floors

. Judging by the space between the support beams in your video either the beams in my trailer are further apart or they are no longer attached near the door. I plan on moving out of this place within the year either moving into a new trailer on the same lot or buying a house. I figure worse case scenario I could always get a couple floor jacks and prop it back up.

[baseballgrader]

@bryanjturner21 could be but can be fixed im sure

[bryanjturner21]

What happens if your weak spot is near the wall. The floor in front of my front door is partially detached and I have to step over it onto the stable section to get into my trailer. Do the same principles apply or might the cross beams the floor screws into might be detached from the wall near the door. I can literally see the siding peeking out from where the floors dropped down near my front door.

@bryanjturner21 remove the plywood and reframe the area. it is easy to do

[OneOfTenVirgins]

You guys move your camera way too fast and about make me sea sick just to watch your vid!!! Please slow down!

how much did all that cost?

[KNOCKEMout]

How much does a job like that cost include labor and materials average too?

[baseballgrader]

@KNOCKEMout about 4000.00

[Usernameinvalid16]

@baseballgrader I would charge about 1000, You get more costumers. Be cheaper then everyone else. YOu get more Jobs and then you aslo get paid better. You may think 4000 is alot but There are more people out there looking and asking for price thats cheap and not expensive for just a small single wide.

While insulation in flooring is nice, most houses don't have it, nor do most houses have soft spots in their flooring and insulation in the floor is inviting for insects and mammals as well, most lieky the floor is soft from the roof leaking down into the walls and under the flooring, over the years it can eat out the wall studs as well, all while the owner is clueless it's going on.

[TheBossPenguin]

Reminded me of my POS trailer. I had to tear the sub floor out in it and it looked like the nightmare before Christmas popped out of there. I had never seen so many spiders, rats, bugs, and shit in my life, and I have been in thousands of crawl spaces; so that says something.

[kennethlawson]

From what I could tell, it looked like a good video, However, The camera work needs to be worked on. Most of the time your camera is moving so fast it doesn't have time to focus, much less give the viewer a chance to see what your trying to show them, So slow don with the camera, make nice slow movements,and let the camera do the work. You can shoot longer scenes and edit them together and possibly do a voice over in editing if you want to ty something like that

Just some ideas,

Ken

@kennethlawson will do

[yankeegurl62]

nice job!! Singlewide right? What year? I have a house that my friend and I will be redoing the floors in the master bedroom...it's an 83--there is also a big spot in the living room which we'll replace too...again, excellent job!! Like your choice in carpet too...

[baseballgrader]

@yankeegurl62 thanks

[Knep115]

I feel your pain on this one! I have been replacing the floor in my brothers Double Wide, the people that lived there before let the washer leak or overflow for a long time...I was showing him how soft the foor was....I ended up in the Crawl Space!

[baseballgrader]

water from anything in the house. or in this case racoons were living under the house and cleared out the insulation under the place causing it to condinsate under the house

[baseballgrader]

I here ya been there

[baseballgrader]

@Knep115 LOL I bet

[IGGLTU]

what will cause the floor in a mobile home to get soft spots in it?

[baseballgrader]

In this case the insulation is gone due to Raccons here. and then the condinsation caused to floor to get moist from the bottom up. the older mobil homes are very known for that.

[baseballgrader]

@IGGLTU moisture from under the house Coons tore the underpinning

[marshlandstudios]
