the handy man is correct, along with the hot air there is moisture and with that mold issues over time . you want to keep the underside as dry as you can. make sure the vent pipe is going through the underbelly tarp as wellif not the moist air will flow between the floor and the insulation causeing ...

depending on theextent of the affected area and how long it's been wet, you could dry it out ,and try some capet fresh or some thing of that sort, i would pay close atention to the floor it's self for damage. partical board or osb doen't like to get wet much it does funny things like fall apart, if ...

you said it kept leaking ? the refrigerant? if that is leaking out the unit would stop cooling when the pressure got too low . or a pressure swicth might be faulty, robert where are you ?? robert knows for sure he'll help' even still i would try to find a more reputable guy to do repairs. sorry abou...

just a thought , i know it's not a good or perm reapir ,but it could buy some time or help isolate the leak. the seal around the drain in the tube may have been broken, the fact that it gets worse when the tub is holding water. makes me think that . dry out the tub around the drain and a apply water...

i've learned quickly when building anything in my m/h or my daughter's square is relative. that's hard for me being the son of a machinist engineer, everything exact close tolerances , yeah right dad. :wink: i was doing my bath and because of lack of tub options i went with a shower enclosure. and g...

would check all the seams again and the lower track, may have to simulate the condition with a hose so you can see the water intrusion , if possble.water could come in at the top and run down the inside of a beam and puddle on the floor . may not even be the door , could be roof. had leak in my bed ...

well this week has been horrid, people we all must remember to check up on our neighbors, not to the point of being intrusive but just to be friendly, i've suffered 2 losses this week to the summer heat and the inability to have the common sense. on monday family member found my wife's grand father ...

got the same prob here too, but my dog is smaller than most of the cats. my wife tried pins in a piece card board, like they used for pigons , that worked only once, heard that sucker step on them too that night, but the next day there was a pile neatly placed right between the 2 pieces of pin taint...

i tried both also and the self stick mesh works better than the paper. but like greg i had issues with the mesh being exsposed after sanding,mostly if you are butting a new edge to a existing edge that isn't beveled. it's great for inside corners

i found a toilet at home depot no sweat design made by glacier bay , it has a bucket in the tank and tips when you push the handel, thus the only time water is in the tank is when you flush. it cost me about 100 bucks. but no more puddles under the tank.

only 4 feet of dry wall? that from the floor up right? heck the wall is only about 7 feet, i'd just do the all the way up less seams that way and with the walls opened up you may find some other issue that can be resolved, and yeah i've got a indoor main shut off right next to my water heater . goin...

hello, been thinking about that stuff too, not sure how it would work in a m/h though, it's glued to the floor and these things move a bit,witch seems to be common. although being vynle type it's plyable and may not be a prob. i've got same issue, kitchen and pallor open and a hall and bath., i put ...

hello, the wall sag, or floor bowing. can be corrected by perimiter blocking under the ridge joist. see my post under floor bowing in this section , sounds like alotof stuff to do,but don't be discouragred, it's worth it in the end, just almost kinda finished mine 14x60 single ,now i'm starting on m...

he sat right down beside me and said," KID,what ya get?" . i looked at him and said ,i didn't get nothing, i have to pay 50.00 and pick up the garbage. he said what ya do? i said, litterin. and they all moved away from me on that bench, then i said , and creatin a neusance, and they came b...

yeah, dean thought about that but he just might start droolin and stutterin too , lil light on the feet you knowwhat i mean? the cloths line idea is a good idea between the homes , but i'd perfer a 30 foot electrified fence better . get up in the mornin and see a pile of ashes , you know something a...
