I have a 2001 Fleetwood Double Wide. I have a question concerning a recent releveing I had done. The major question is this: Do they need to come in the home to do a relevel? My floors inside are not close to being level (using a masons level). Also, my bathroom door closes on it’s own, a couple of my doors are cocked and not aligned with the frame and I have several dips in the floor near where the two sections are joined? Is this normal after a relevel? The workers never came in the home.
On top of my first question I can’t help but feel that I may have been “taken” and thought I would seek some input from this forum. Apparently, I needed more than just a relevel I needed major work. What also raises my concerns, on top of the home not appearing to be level, is the quality of work that was done. I think it was a tad shoddy:
- 1.T hey replaced my back door but have yet to come back and put the deadbolt back on. Asked several times, no one ever comes.
2. They said I need fill dirt under my home because I had a lot of water that was building up under there. They charged me $1000.00 for fill dirt since it was “man hour” intensive. They would have to move the dirt by hand. They used a bobcat instead. This of course wrecked my front yard. No price reduction though.
3. They put some of my skirting on backwards. Not a big deal but shows the quality of work. It looks like I will have to redo it, now it's all crooked looking.
4. They took down my fence to get the bobcat in and put it back up all crooked. They did a horrific job. They did come back and fix this. Although my fence is loose.
5. Plus, as I stated above, nothing in inside the home appears level.
6. You will see a “repair vapor barrier”. Is this the black cover right under the floor? If so, some of that is hanging.
