I searched and found Drews videos, as it pertains to my project. I'm renovating(saving) a mobile home for my daughter (priced out of her apartment down in the city). YOU CAN DO THIS. Just look for the wet spots on the floor, SET YOUR SAW for the depth of the flooring (NO MORE) and start cutting. Once you see what is beneath, you gain confidence. Cut a little more and look around underneath. Once you open up the effects of the problem (the floor), you understand it and realize you can replace it. KEEP READING... Fixing the effects is step 1. Make sure to fix the problem/what caused it (step 2). Our problem... the exterior sheathing/siding... being a mobile home, it was laid up in 4x8, 10 or 12 ft sheets of siding. These sheets are joined together every FOUR (4) feet. That seam's caulk had deteriorated. Water ran down and behind the siding and onto the floor. AND THAT WAS THE PRIMARY CAUSE. SECOND PROBLEM... The mobile home's A/C unit's condensation line became plugged (or there was a leak in the A/C pan. Regardless, we replaced it (all of it) and made sure the A/C could condensate/leak (which is normal) BENEATH the floor. Hope this helps. You can do this. God bless you and your husband. You can do this.

You should use Vantex flooring, not three-quarter inch plywood. It is a little bit more money but it will never go away. They have different brands of it. I’m not sure what they carry in Maine advent tech Vantex there’s different names. I’m not sure what years is like I said, but if you use it, you will never have to replace your floor again ever plywood. It could happen. If it gets wet down the road you’ll have to replace itVantex, you will not. Sounds like you have everything you need if you’re in Maine maybe you would consider our 30 in the attic but I think I 19 is fine for the floor. Thank you for watching and if there’s anything else I can help you with please let me know it sounds like you got it figured out. When you take up the floor if it’s put down with Staples and glue I have a video for that.

You said you saw two whatever the depth is obviously of the floor nine times out of 10 23/32 or 3/4 of an inch. I use a regular Skil saw blade for cutting wood. I don’t do just one spot in the floor never will get the floors bad the whole thing comes out.

It makes me feel good that you’re so proud of your dad. That means he brought you up proper. And I love your KZitem name unique honesty. Honesty is a virtue that some people just don’t have. I bet your dad is an amazing man. A KZitemr called me from Florida. He wanted to have a consultation with me about a property that he bought in Florida I’ll share his video link with you. We talked on the phone for a couple hours and by the time we were done talking I had decided that he needs help. And I felt like I could help him. So I told him that I would take myself and my friend left handed Paul and come to Florida the second week of November for two weeks and get as much done as we can on his place this is the KZitem channel he sent me and if you notice in the comments I told him we would be there November Second week to help him. I wish we could help your father to. Check out the comments where I told them we would come help. I love helping people when I can. I don’t have a full-time job anymore because of health issues I just can’t work full-time. But I’m still able to help kzitem.info/rock/HX23lCrsOq3HXHENKyyCGQ

How do you keep the walls supported after removing the rotted flooring? Also, I know you say to replace the whole floor, however the damage in my mobile home is a medium section. under the bathtub and into the closet of adjoining room, where the hot water heater leaked. I had planned to replace 1 or 2 feet beyond where the rot is and add support joists to keep the weight of bathtub, washer, dryer and hot water heater from causing sagging in the future. Oh, I will be using plywood to replace the flooring. Not trying to cut corners, honest, but I have come to the end of my limited budget. I should have said this first, I'm glad I came across your vid's. I am no longer have paralyzing fears that I won't be able to fix things in my mobile home. Wish I had the Money to bring you up to NH to do the repairs, with or without my fears of not being able to do the work correctly on my own.

I lived in and rebuilt a old manufactured home. The area I live was and still is Mobil homes. Slowly they're disappearing. The old homes can't be moved. They have to be demolished where they're located. home movers won't touch them. Lot built homes are replacing the old manufacture homes. The material/labor cost just don't work putting into a old manufactured home. Just the kitchen cabinets will cost as much as that old home. Maybe if you have access to used reclaimed lumber and are retired with no day job, I could see doing this. I was fascinated that anyone would do this.
