We are getting ready to give our older double wide a complete face lift.
Little background on our home.
Year 1972 Leisure Manor
20 X 54
3 bed - 2 bath upstairs and - downstairs is a large workshop, 1/2 bath, family room with rock fireplace, and I guess bedroom downstairs (we currently use for an office)
Mobile home sits on top full walkout basement
Has complete metal peaked snow roof cover and wrap around deck on 3 sides of house. Deck is under cover and is out about 8 foot on two sides - third side of deck is prob about 16 wide. Deck has log railing all the way around.
This is what we are wanting to do:
Remove Oak paneling (this stuff is so strong you can hardly pound a nail into it.) anyrate remove the paneling then sheetrock most walls will put up tongue & goove cedar on some walls to offset the plain sheetrock/painted wallls. Also at the time we remove paneling we will add insulation and upgrade recepticales etc.
All new trim and baseboards.
Laminate flooring (whole house) except bathroom and kitchen. May lay tile or Linoleum in these areas.
Have already replaced the kitchen sink with a full sized model and it fits nicely.
Removing one wall in the masterbed room (its not a support wall) this will give us a fairly big master suit about 20 X12. with bathroom and outside door that leads to deck. So then up stairs will a 2 bedroom instead of 3.
My qestions I guess are general:

We are aware about the joor james matching up etc.
Will we still get cracking in the walls or less because we are on permanate basement? (we are not going to sheetrock the ceilings)
