You guys are a blessing, in a world with all the chaos and stress its a breath of fresh air watching you guys rebuild your lives and having a great sense of humor to bring joy to my day..Im a DIYer myself and your content is right up my alley. Thank you for sharing👍
My mom and dad had a mobile home many years ago. One day during lunch my dad noticed that one of the wall plugs was smoking. He jumped up from the table and grabbed the fire extinguisher and sprayed the outlet putting the fire out. Thank God my dad was home. He took the outlet out and discovered aluminum wire was used. My dad rewired the whole mobile home and found other wiring burnt.
I used to have repeating nightmares about fires in the walls. So when I see you taking such care in doing your wiring RIGHT, I take a lot of comfort in that - for you and your family!
Such a blessing to see a husband and wife team that genuinely like each other - it makes your journey much sweeter when there are the "times that try men's souls".
You might want to cut and install a piece of blocking between the two studs and remove that butterfly anchor and then you have a more secure mounting for the kitchen cabinet!!
@@sam-and-angela Great job!, yeah, you might as well fix all the whoopdi-doos in the walls while you're at the renovations, same goes for the laundry room, maybe move the wall back about a foot or two, beef up the 2x3's and any other micky mouse work that the factory did, or didn't do!, also you might want to completely redo the spice rack. As for the master bedroom closet, it looks like you have at least 2 1/2 feet depth to play with to make it roomy enough for your clothes! Thanks again for your videos!
They make those wire staples with plastic insulators, so they won't damage the wire. Those staples are not suppose of be hammered hard against the romex. Just enough to lightly hold the wire in place.
So the metal staples aren’t supposed to be hammered down all the way. Just hammered past the silver tip. Same with plastic staples. Compression = fire. That’s why a lot of new construction uses zip ties to tack wires up.
You two are doing great on you renovation. My husband and I have a 1988 mobile home. My husband was sick over 10 year's we lost every thing we had. He needed a liver transplant and we lived in his parents camper for three years. We almost lost him and he told his mama and daddy he was hoping to have me in a home before he died. So they bought this for us and bought everything we needed to make it fit to live in. Seven years ago on May 16th he received his liver and is doing great. I know everything is going to be beautiful when you get it finished.
God Bless you Deloris. I hope you don’t mind me putting you and your husband and parents In my prayers. I wish I lived near you I’d love to help you fix up your mobile home. I hope ti slowly make the one I’m living more livable/tolerable. I wish this wonderful couple would provide a video on how to seal up the belly of our mobile home to keep out the mice and keep my heat in my home and not heat the underneath area. 🫢😉🙏🙏🙏🙏✝️🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have a double-wide that needs a huge overhaul! New roof, subfloor, underbelly, siding and needs rewired. You guys are an inspiration! Your hard work paid off and your home is so beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing it all!
Are those 2 butter fly screws holding your Microwave up , maybe you need too beef that up . Love your videos,Blessings to you all . Is Sam back to work in his business!
Thank you for putting tape on those holes. I was just so concerned about you and the work you just did. Love seeing you and your handy work you are so kind to share with us. God bless.
When you open the walls during a renovation you never know what you will find. It is amazing that this mobile home lasted that long prior to your purchase. I can say that you guys have more than just beefed up the walls but then entire structure. The wiring job is really neat and at least you know it was done right. Angela and her favorite tool! You can see her face light up when she has to use it..LOL Great job!
I love to see such a strong couple working together ❤ on their common goals with such good humor. Once read lots of marriage s don't make it through the remodel process. Love to see this family going for the long haul. ❤
Older mobile homes use to catch 🔥 fire all the time, and it's plain to see why. That spaghetti ball of wires looks a whole lot better. I agree with Sam, I like the wiring to look near & organized. And I like it if the wiring makes sense. Good job Angela getting all those p.i.t.a. little brads, nails & protrusions cut off so that it's easier to hang the drywall.
I watch the channel but a year ago people do this for a living fixing old mobile homes they had a lot of special tools love watching a channel keep it up
Hi Sam & Angela Another great video. Sometimes it takes doing one little thing at a time to reach the final goal. Glad you are taking the time to correct everything behind the drywall, instead of just throwing up drywall to make it look good in appearance only. I've had the occasion to demolished several mobile homes and as you show the skelton isn't made like a house would be Thanks for keeping the bloopers in at the end. I laugh at some of the things that are said during the video. I laugh like crazy at the bloopers Can't wait for what's next
You guys are very lucky you never had a fire from that wiring. Glad you guys caught that. God had a reason for you guys doing all this work yourself. It is going to be nice when you are done. That is so true that when people work on things together their home means much, much more to them. You not only have equity in your home you have blood, sweat, and tears. So proud of you guys.
I highly recommend insulating any interior wall to help with sound deadening while you have access, especially since you have feral children. It greatly improves quality of life, in my opinion, and the cost is very minor, especially as it relates to that quality of life improvement. Just my opinion!
Y'all are so close to having a brand new master bedroom with onsuite! Lol! Watching too much Escape to the Country!😂 Can't wait to use your knowledge when building a wall separating master bedroom from bath with wiring going to top for lights over sinks and 4 foot up for plug ins at the sink. Is it ok if I say plug ins?😄 Great job!! Have a blessed week!!
It's a beautiful thing. It is such a pleasure to see something fixed perfectly and not slipshod. It looks so nice and neat. I am sure you will feel better about everything now that you know it's done correctly. There's a lot to be said for having the correct tool for the job. (And the right person to use the tool) Congratulations on another job well done! Have a good night's sleep, Angela & Sam
You guys have rebuilt your home 🏡 ❤ almost 💯% from the start of the renovation! And you have done great 👌 explanations of everything you have done, it's so informative and entertaining! Thanks for sharing many great videos 📹, I'm looking forward to seeing the next one ! 😊👍💕💕💕
A lot of people turn their noses up when you say mobile home, but the two of you have made yours WAY better than a lot of stick built homes. Love it. 💗💗💗
I for one will never knock a mobile home. I lived in one for about 10 years. Like Sam and Angela, mine was well used before I got it for a song. I paid $1,500 for mine. I did a lot of renovations and it was very comfortable for the time we lived in it. Better still, it was only costing us $80 per month to rent the lot we were on. Unfortunately, the park was closed and we had to move. We got a very good price for it when we sold... much more than what we invested in it.
so a way to strengthen any wall or framed area is to put plywood over it and if you have a week area that's already sheeted with thin plywood you can overlap and strengthen it relatively easy and fast. it just boils down to cost verse need and how much you want to engineer a project.👍
I had the same thing in my house, no electrical boxes just attached by the face plate. Your doing such a great job with your wiring and beefing up the studs.
Septic is to be installed this week. After that, we can rent equipment and trench for our power lines for installing. We don't want to risk digging in the septic drain fields and mess that up at all. Hopefully next week we will be digging the power line trench.
Don't forget to put metal plates over where ever you have wires going through the studs in the wall so that when you fasten the drywall onto the wall you do not accidently screw through an electrical wire.
You guys are hitting my mark. The conduit is in my old mobile as well. And my plan was to reuse it, and then wall plates. But I'm not sure if that would pass code. And it's gotta be inspected since it's been over 4 years.
I would recommend using the reflective foil in the walls before insulation. It will help keep your home cooler in the summer and doesn't add weight to the mobile home..
SAM AND ANGELA, YOU TWO DID A GREAT JOB AND THE WIRING LOOKS GOOD, I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT FLOATING WIRES AND ELECTRICAL OUTLETS IN OLDER MOBILE HOMES MY HUSBAND AND I HAD ONE WE HAD TO WORK ON THE BATHROOM BECAUSE OF THE HOT WATER HEATER LEAKING AND THE TUB PIPES LEAKING SO EVERY WALL HAD TO BE REPLACED.
Glad to see you are replacing the wiring and boxes. many trailer fires have root problems in the wiring systems. especially after people add new outlets and loads to existing circuits. Enjoy
I would recommend that you connect all wiring for outlets with pigtails and waygu connections or wire nuts to avoid any failure of connections in the outlet plugs themselves! By doing this, if the outlet plug fails, then the rest of the circuit won't be dead and causing you hours of troubleshooting the problem of half of the home being in the dark ! Hope this makes sense! Thanks for sharing your videos!
⚘What is true about Sam is also true about Angel, and Sam is always quick to give credit to Angel, and the same about Angel when it comes to Angel giving credit to Sam, when the credit is due. They have that beautiful balance between the two of them and is a great example for all of us to learn from. Thank you, Angel and Sam.
Hey guys, I sent you some pictures of our project. Did you get them ? Oh yes Mobil home wiring is definitely interesting to say the least. That's why we opted to rewire our entire home while we had all the walls open. You wouldn't believe the problem we had finding shallow boxes for those 2x3 walls🙄. We will also be beefing up a few of our interior walls. Fun times guys, stay strong it will be worth it. Well that's what I keep telling myself 😂
could watch you two all day...we call our house the crumbleinn because of problems some very similar to yours lol keep the videos coming...uoyr keeping me sane lol xx
I love watching you guys. Oh how I can remember those Star Wars days with my boys!! I love watching those cute little ones. They're so sweet. Enjoy these days. They'll be gone in a blink of an eye. I have a mobile home also. I've watched how you guys make it look so easy. Thank you so much for your channel. You really are a blessing whether you know it or not.
👀 OMG! I am cause up on all your videos. I have been watching for about 2 weeks. Ya’ll have motivated me to start some renovations on my 2005 doublewide. I am a single mom in NC so I will be doing this alone. My biggest fear is removing the carpet and putting down vinyl flooring, especially in the bathroom with removing the toilet. Thanks for taking time filming and explaining everything step by step.
I'm watching a young fellow out in St Louis Missouri renovate a 125 year old house. It's cool to watch. And I'm finding watching a young couple renovate a 32 year old mobile home is just as exciting.
Being able to do wiring is a blessing! One outlet added to my home for the microwave cost about $400 for me. Y’all are doing an amazing job. I love watching.
Hey love you guys and great job on all your work but could you double check and make sure those nail things that's holding the wire to the wall didn't bust through the plastic coating over your wire and not nailed too tight I am scared of everything when it comes to electric and just had to say that and I love what you guy's do☺
I'd love to know how you did the addition. We're in the process of doing our mobile home now too and would love to add on a dinning room and three seasons porch in the future but unsure how that construction goes. We have loads of experience in stick built home construction but new to the mobile home construction.
Love the show! Mine is a 89 and when I opened up my walls some insulation was not installed! When I did my wiring I changed my receptacles with 4 gang's! keep up the good work! Cheers from Central PA!
As someone who spent many a year living in a mobile home I would highly recommend if you have not put the drywall up in the bedroom yet, whatever on the other side of the last wall of this video is hung on a hollow wall anchor to take that down and put in a backing block to screw that in. I cannot tell you how many things in my own place were hung with hollow wall anchors (since those teeny tiny studs were very difficult to find let alone properly hit the center of one hanging something) that for a year or two or just fine. Until today that the not overweighted item ripped the hollow wall and current out of the wall leaving me with a giant hole to patch. The mobile home I owned was 9 years old when I bought it and we lived in it for almost 10 years.
Wow you guys! That wall was crazy thin! I didn’t realize your kitchen cabinets were attached there! Its amazing they didn’t come loose during transport! Looks solid now! Looking great! Keep up the good work!
The conduit pieces going through the studs usually have burrs on the inside and will cut the wires running through them. Mine almost started a fire. They are there to keep drywall screws from going into the wires.
Everything is looking great. Two suggestions before drywall .The toggle bolts What are they holding up? Back them up with blocking and remove the toggle bolts for screws makes it a lot stronger. Please install safety straps over each hole that the electric is going through that dont have the pipe over the wires so you dont drive a drewall through it
I feel your pain, mobile homes are notorious for crappy wiring and thousands of unnecessary staples pin nails. All my outlets were just held by the sheet rock no 2x4s or 1x3s just a weird flap top and bottom that held them directly to the dry wall.
Wow guys, it is looking so much better, I know with mobile home wiring that is can be a hot mess, but yours looks so wonderful, and I once again am excited to see another one of your videos. Take care have a great week, sending love and hugs, bye for now.🥰💜
Thanks for he tip with the screw and hammer to level the two pieces of wood, one to remember. Good temp fix with the tape as I was one of the ones commenting on the holes... sorry. Thanks for posting
Looks nice and lots of hard work. Need mail plates over the hole through studs to protect wires and noticed a few staples through the wire sheathing. You remind me a of good friend of mine.
You guys are doing a great job. You’re going to really enjoy your bedroom once it’s all finished and you are moved back into the house. It’s a good thing that you decided to go ahead and get it done because there’s been a lot of issues for you to address to get things locked down and solid. I hope your house will give you many years of comfort in the future.
Here in England just found your channel and have o say we are both enjoying enormously we got onto your channel via your home move but are loving your outtakes keep up the great work ❤️ 🐝happy
I love your channel!!! My husband and I also have a mobile home that we are remodeling so your channel really helps when we get stumped also that was a cool trick with the screw in the door frame!
You guys are a blessing, in a world with all the chaos and stress its a breath of fresh air watching you guys rebuild your lives and having a great sense of humor to bring joy to my day..Im a DIYer myself and your content is right up my alley. Thank you for sharing👍
I think a lot of trades use their hammer as a guide to place plug outlets. about a foot off floor .some go 18 inches in basements for flooding.
Those wires look a LOT better now! That looks like a nice piece of equipment for your homestead.
About to watch your new vid. Lol
Good to see you here!
#untilnexttime
Thanks!

I love them and the way they school their children
You didn’t put plates over the wires on the studs to protect the wires ?!
I'm old, lol, and what you two are doing sure brings back memories, love your videos, keep up the good work.
You might want to cut and install a piece of blocking between the two studs and remove that butterfly anchor and then you have a more secure mounting for the kitchen cabinet!!
I agree, looks pretty flimsy.
We did this the next day. :) That video is in the edit queue still.
@@sam-and-angela Great job!, yeah, you might as well fix all the whoopdi-doos in the walls while you're at the renovations, same goes for the laundry room, maybe move the wall back about a foot or two, beef up the 2x3's and any other micky mouse work that the factory did, or didn't do!, also you might want to completely redo the spice rack.

The 2 outlet boxes are @ different heights. First 1 spaced from top of 2x and 2nd one spaced from floor.

You all do such clean, smooth edits
I'm glad you take electrical seriously not many do that's why they have fires
Still amazed at it being 1"X4"'s on the cabinet wall and yep that one board is pretty well bowed there isn't it. Keep on keeping on you two...
I love to see such a strong couple working together ❤ on their common goals with such good humor. Once read lots of marriage s don't make it through the remodel process.

It is probably sealed up by now but do consider some cross bracing so you're not relying on Molly screws now and forever more.
Where I live, code requires 2x4 between the suds. It is fire code.
I watch the channel but a year ago people do this for a living fixing old mobile homes they had a lot of special tools love watching a channel keep it up
Beefin good wall! The studs truly look stronger and better. The wire mess has been turned from chaos to control - perfect! Good work for both of you.
Looks like you need safety plates ,where the wire go thew the holes.i do love your channel.
Hi Sam & Angela
Another great video.
Sometimes it takes doing one little thing at a time to reach the final goal.
Glad you are taking the time to correct everything behind the drywall, instead of just throwing up drywall to make it look good in appearance only.
I've had the occasion to demolished several mobile homes and as you show the skelton isn't made like a house would be
Thanks for keeping the bloopers in at the end.

Can't wait for what's next
You guys do a wonderful job on your home. Keep up with the good work.
Looks great. Brilliant work and thanks for sharing this with us take care
Everything is coming together. It’s the things you don’t see that are so important. This will be the best built home ever!❤️❤️❤️
You guys are very lucky you never had a fire from that wiring. Glad you guys caught that. God had a reason for you guys doing all this work yourself. It is going to be nice when you are done. That is so true that when people work on things together their home means much, much more to them. You not only have equity in your home you have blood, sweat, and tears. So proud of you guys.
I highly recommend insulating any interior wall to help with sound deadening while you have access, especially since you have feral children. It greatly improves quality of life, in my opinion, and the cost is very minor, especially as it relates to that quality of life improvement.
Just my opinion!
You are so right. We're doing a complete remodel of our mobile home too and we plan on using Rock wool in the interior walls.
Y'all are so close to having a brand new master bedroom with onsuite! Lol! Watching too much Escape to the Country!😂 Can't wait to use your knowledge when building a wall separating master bedroom from bath with wiring going to top for lights over sinks and 4 foot up for plug ins at the sink.

I love how you work as a team. What a blessing..
Nice work you two! Soon it won/t be an old single wide with all your improvements. Baling hay! Hope you enjoy it. That was a big part of my youth.
We've been told it's a ton of work, and we are sure it is, but still looking forward to it. :)

so a way to strengthen any wall or framed area is to put plywood over it and if you have a week area that's already sheeted with thin plywood you can overlap and strengthen it relatively easy and fast.
it just boils down to cost verse need and how much you want to engineer a project.👍
love watching and yes I do learn how to do things that I can do myself with out having to ask someone to do it.
Great job Sam and Angela! You did well today and got alot accomplished!
I had the same thing in my house, no electrical boxes just attached by the face plate. Your doing such a great job with your wiring and beefing up the studs.
So glad you got to replace a lot of old things and reinforce the walls. Makes the room feel safer. YAY
You all please take care and be safe
Hi Sam Angela & Boys,your home will be awesome because of all your hard work.Have a great week & really enjoy watching the progress.🌷
Oh that wall looks soooo much better now!
Cant wait for more guys. Amy news on the electricity pole or sewer? Another great video guys. God bless you and your family.

I would recommend using the reflective foil in the walls before insulation. It will help keep your home cooler in the summer and doesn't add weight to the mobile home..
You both know what you're doing, and it looks great.

The sound of Isaac playing is absolutely wonderful, reminding me of one of our children.

keep the videos coming...uoyr keeping me sane lol xx
Awesome, u know my love for mobile homes. Growing up in 1963 mobile, I have had a happy heart watching your channel.
I love watching you guys. Oh how I can remember those Star Wars days with my boys!! I love watching those cute little ones. They're so sweet. Enjoy these days. They'll be gone in a blink of an eye. I have a mobile home also. I've watched how you guys make it look so easy. Thank you so much for your channel. You really are a blessing whether you know it or not.
Yay! Now you have a nice, smooth, clean palate to finish your walls! IMHO the prep is always the worst but the most important part of a task.
You’re doing such amazing work. It’s all going to look so nice.
👀 OMG! I am cause up on all your videos. I have been watching for about 2 weeks. Ya’ll have motivated me to start some renovations on my 2005 doublewide.

Thanks!!
It’s just amazes me how people do illegal short cuts. So dangerous. Thank goodness you found that wire!!
Being able to do wiring is a blessing! One outlet added to my home for the microwave cost about $400 for me. Y’all are doing an amazing job. I love watching.

wE LOVE YOUR OUTTAKES IT REALLY MAKES YOU GUYS LOOK HUMAN, WE ALL DO IT , MOST WON'T ADMIT IT.
Good job guys , I just completely rehabbed a single wide and put on an addition
I'd love to know how you did the addition. We're in the process of doing our mobile home now too and would love to add on a dinning room and three seasons porch in the future but unsure how that construction goes. We have loads of experience in stick built home construction but new to the mobile home construction.
@@darleneclark6098 im not to good with the computer but send me a text and I can send some pictures and feel free to ask any questions
Every time you guys do something you do it awesome I really love your channel
Love the show! Mine is a 89 and when I opened up my walls some insulation was not installed! When I did my wiring I changed my receptacles with 4 gang's! keep up the good work! Cheers from Central PA!
As someone who spent many a year living in a mobile home I would highly recommend if you have not put the drywall up in the bedroom yet, whatever on the other side of the last wall of this video is hung on a hollow wall anchor to take that down and put in a backing block to screw that in. I cannot tell you how many things in my own place were hung with hollow wall anchors (since those teeny tiny studs were very difficult to find let alone properly hit the center of one hanging something) that for a year or two or just fine. Until today that the not overweighted item ripped the hollow wall and current out of the wall leaving me with a giant hole to patch. The mobile home I owned was 9 years old when I bought it and we lived in it for almost 10 years.
I love your family. The boys are precious and warm my heart everytime I see them. I love the way you two work together. God bless you all. Stay safe.
Wow you guys! That wall was crazy thin! I didn’t realize your kitchen cabinets were attached there! Its amazing they didn’t come loose during transport! Looks solid now! Looking great! Keep up the good work!
Really amazing!! They’re for sure not going anywhere now. :)
Great job its always the small things that are the most important. Do not damage them wires at all.
I look forward to your progress, you guys are a great team..great work..
The conduit pieces going through the studs usually have burrs on the inside and will cut the wires running through them. Mine almost started a fire. They are there to keep drywall screws from going into the wires.
Everything is looking great. Two suggestions before drywall .The toggle bolts What are they holding up? Back them up with blocking and remove the toggle bolts for screws makes it a lot stronger.
Please install safety straps over each hole that the electric is going through that dont have the pipe over the wires so you dont drive a drewall through it
I feel your pain, mobile homes are notorious for crappy wiring and thousands of unnecessary staples pin nails. All my outlets were just held by the sheet rock no 2x4s or 1x3s just a weird flap top and bottom that held them directly to the dry wall.
Wow guys, it is looking so much better, I know with mobile home wiring that is can be a hot mess, but yours looks so wonderful, and I once again am excited to see another one of your videos. Take care have a great week, sending love and hugs, bye for now.🥰💜
The wall does look so much better now.
Thanks for he tip with the screw and hammer to level the two pieces of wood, one to remember. Good temp fix with the tape as I was one of the ones commenting on the holes... sorry. Thanks for posting
Looks nice and lots of hard work. Need mail plates over the hole through studs to protect wires and noticed a few staples through the wire sheathing. You remind me a of good friend of mine.
You guys are doing a great job. You’re going to really enjoy your bedroom once it’s all finished and you are moved back into the house. It’s a good thing that you decided to go ahead and get it done because there’s been a lot of issues for you to address to get things locked down and solid. I hope your house will give you many years of comfort in the future.
I love the outtake section 😄
Here in England just found your channel and have o say we are both enjoying enormously we got onto your channel via your home move but are loving your outtakes keep up the great work ❤️ 🐝happy
You guys have a new home for many years to come bless 👍
The pipe in the studs are there to protect the wire from screws or nails
I love your channel!!! My husband and I also have a mobile home that we are remodeling so your channel really helps when we get stumped also that was a cool trick with the screw in the door frame!
