Order of renovating?
Hey everyone... Now that we've got it down to the studs and subflooring, we were curious as to what order we needed to proceed? Do we repair the floors and do the plumbing first? Or do we have an electrician come in before we do the walls? Do we do the walls before the floors? Very confusing. :shock...

Haha, thank you! I'm looking forward to the assortment of power tools I'll surely be opening Friday.

Re: Total Renovation Possible?
Quick question.. Can you use regular outside doorknobs and locks on a mobile home door, or is the door itself thinner?

Well pump?
Anyone here familiar with wells?
We're about to have the trailer we bought inspected, and we were wondering about the well pump.

Shouldn't the well pump be attached to the big pipe on the right? Are well pumps expensive to replace?

Re: Total Renovation Possible?
Thanks for the info about permits! We're still in the planning phase, so we have a while before we actually start anything.. So, I'm playing around on some home design software, and it made me think of something. Since the kitchen needs new cabinets and appliances, how hard is it to change the posit...

Re: Total Renovation Possible?
Thanks for the suggestions! Do you think columns would be a solution to taking the walls down? We actually went and walked through one of those model double wides, with top of the line everything, and their ceilings were slanted like ours, but the entire living/eating space was wide open, no walls. ...

Re: Total Renovation Possible?
When you mention weight being a concern, do you mean for the material that is used on the floors itself, or for the house in general? I know that probably doesn't sound right, but I mean like, is the concern something breaking through the subflooring from being too heavy? The trailer definitely has ...

Total Renovation Possible?
My BF and I have a double wide (28' x 66') that is in need of a complete interior renovation. Before we begin, we have a few questions.. We plan to rip out all the paneling, and put in sheetrock but we're unsure about what size we can use. We also were thinking of replacing all the windows, but wond...
