RE: Leaking front door/0sb on floor rotting
Your new contractors approach sounds like he is preparing to try and take advantage of you too. STOP. Get the repair manual and educate yourself before you call anymore contractors.

RE: Leveling, floors, walls you name it
Rather than replace/lengthen the skirting is it possible to regrade and raise the ground around the home. More labour but possibly less cost. Would also have to grade under home or grade around in such a way as to allow water under home to escape.

RE: pellet stove
Pellets are scarce in my neck of the woods (eastern Ontario). Many suppliers tell me they will not likely be able to get any before January. This could push the price up this winter.

RE: Double Wide Rebuild
In my opinion the feasibility of what you are asking depends entirely on how cheap you can purchase the home. Do you know the value of a similar double wide in your area. If so I would be looking at paying maximum 50% and reduce that by the estimated repair costs. Repair costs should only include ne...

RE: Bail-Out the Auto Industry
Labour costs make up only 15% of the cost to manufacture a car. The two biggest cost factors are Material - 50% and corporate structure - 20%. Cutting wages and benefits is a short sited solution to the auto industries problems that will not have a significant enough impact. Cutting the wages of all...

RE: Bail-Out the Auto Industry
The auto industry is really just the tip of the iceberg. I doubt the bailout will prevent the underlying collapse of the economy and if provided will only be delaying the inevitable. Wide spread bankruptcies and nation wide layoffs in all sectors will likely see unemployment rates at levels we can n...

RE: Shock Hazard
Computer monitors. I use to repair the old style terminals and monitors from the 80s/90s and would often get set on my backside. The electrical charge was retained in components (transformer I think) supplying power to the screen. We had to remember to ground the unit to drain off power before worki...

RE: WINDOW QUESTION
In the winter you need to run a dehumidifier to reduce the moisture level in the air. The humidity level in your home is too high. This is common in the winter due to our homes being closed up not allowing the moisture from cooking, showers etc. to escape. The moisture laden air contacts the cold wi...

RE: Electrical switch in kitchen...
Not knowing what book you have it is difficult to ascertain how complex it may be but if you do not understand what it is saying you should not do it. What you want to do is very simple so I am confused as to why you are questioning what you are reading in the book. The home building stores have sim...

Up here the home owners insurance kicks in first which is why park rules state individual homeowners insurance is mandatory.

RE: Tree.....
Check your park rules. It your responsibility to contact the park owner in these matters as he owns the trees. Ask him to remove it as it is a safety issue. If he refuses to remove it ask if you can remove it at your expense. Contact your insurance company and make sure you are covered in case it fa...

RE: Energy use down
Our standard of living can't help but be impacted at least in the middle and lower classes. Even at a high price there is no alternate form of energy that is cheaper than oil. As an example hybrid vehicles are more expensive for what you get and the cost to maintain them (battery replacement etc.) w...

The main reason the major car makers are in the economic mess they are now is because they concentrated there manufacturing efforts on producing vehicles which were in high demand by the car buying public. They gave the customer what they wanted while at the same time producing a diversified product...

RE: Bail-Out the Auto Industry
If there is a bail out I think it will be because politicians fear the domino effect chapter 11 may cause.
The US is teetering on the brink of economic collapse and if pushed over the edge the rest of the world may chose to step away to avoid as much collateral damage as possible.
