🔷 ABOUT US 🔷
We're a DIY family building our "forever homestead" from 15 acres of raw undeveloped land in Tennessee. All of our content is family friendly and safe for everyone to enjoy.
In today's video we are working in our master bedroom renovation of our 1988 Palm Harbor 14 x 70 single wide mobile home. We are tearing out the floor, and subfloor, adding in blocking for proper support, insulating the floor for better efficiency, and fixing rotten floor joists by sistering the joists. We finish out the project by laying down 3/4" plywood and attaching it all with Spax screws. Let's go!

My husband randomly found your channel a few weeks ago and now we both are obsessed. Y’all work so well together and are just the cutest couple. Looking forward to more homestead videos. God bless your family and keep you safe. Much love from Mississippi❤️
I agree, I'm not a fan of gluing subfloors.
Like your Chanel!
why is that?
@@MrRerod Because screwing eliminates the need. In the old days, when nails were the norm, glue had its place. With screws it serves little to no purpose. It's just extra money, extra mess, and extra chemicals in your home for no real benefit. Plus, most sub-floor adhesives barely work anyway.
Dang hope that flooring didn’t cost you more than the home cost you, with the price of lumber these days. Sam’s inner light shines forth lol I’m always so excited to see your progress. Brushless will be more efficient with battery life. Whoa I thought she was going to use it as a beard trimmer on Sam. Step back Sam!!! 💚❤️💙💜💛
I wish i could find a double wide home I would fix it up as well as SAM & ANGELA no mortage some people have money to spin or just to say I have it all about happiness comfortable no rent yea! the lumber is the house no matter what you are building
@@estellaknox9285 No mortgage is the goal, I am looking for a mobile home as well. I just do not want that overbearing large boxes in which you have to pay these high property taxes. I would say the cost is a lot less than a 30 yr mortgage.
No mortgage and no HOA!
You can build a box with your 2x4s and slide it between your floor joist when you get close to the walls where you dont have anything to screw to. It works anywhere you dont have something to screw to.
Polish your glasses with shaving cream, both sides then they will not fog up! (Food processing inspector trick, always going from warm to cold to warm)
Sam’s look when Angela said she didn’t know “Gotta keep ‘em separated “ !!! We’ve got some scabbing (sistering) to do when we start on the floors of our double wide. Not looking forward to that. Lol. Another great one guys. 💗Much love from South Carolina.
The off spring
Why don't you patch holes holes in siding so rain don't get in bottom
The sistering repair finally answered all my questions about how to fix my outer walls. Thank you so much for sharing this video.
Love the outtakes at the end of the videos! Too many youtube channels get "uppity" after they have a little success. Its great to see you guys are keeping it real and not putting "on airs" as grandma called it. Being yourselves is what makes your videos so great. The boys building a home for the caterpillar was adorable. You have some nice beautiful and level property and I am really looking forward to future videos.
Sandra WestleyUK, I watch loads of TH-cam videos and I have never seen anyone put on airs and graces, I also watch a load of Homesteaders and lots of other things I’m interested in, and I have not come across it.
I remember the days the only tools me or my dad would buy were Craftsmen. Didn't they used to have a lifetime warranty (I'm 64 for reference - Lol)? It's so cute to see how excited Angela gets with new tools. Love watching your progress. Once again, your bloopers were awesome! So your younger son wants to be an ice sculptor when he grows up? Lol.
Lifetime warranty on hand tools not power tools.
@@dalecherry4044 Okay. Thank you for that clarification. Do you know if they still have that warranty?
@@carlapierle8623 I'm not sure if they cover all hand tools. I used to do metal work (30 years ago) and back then they were shying away from the guarantee on snips. I guess I can say that was good while it lasted. Check their sight for clarity on their warranty.
@@dalecherry4044 Yes, it really was a good thing. Now we live in a cheap, throw away world.
@@carlapierle8623 I believe that was mainly when they were sold by Sears. Since then I think they've been bought out. I haven't verified it, but I've heard their quality went downhill a bit after they were bought out. Milwaukee and Dewalt seem to sell top notch tools though. Also, I haven't had any problems with craftsman tools personally. I quite like them.
My husband said he hit the jackpot when he found me. Because I like tools as much as he does.
DOING IT THE WAY YOU DO IT MAKES SENSE THAT IT WOULD MAKE THE FLOOR MORE STURDY FOR SURE NOT CUTTING CORNERS AND YOUR DOING IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
I burnt out an oscillating tool too. They just seem to get used a lot more than other tools especially with renovations and flooring.
So nice to se a lady (like my self) not being afraid to do the hard work and doing great at it! More ladies should realize how nice it is to build and create :)
Its is so wonderful to see a couple "working together " on their home. Right on
Thank you for doing this floor thing. Next week I'm going down to Longboat Key Florida to tear up my living room floor to put insulation underneath. You all are now one of my favorite channels.🏚🇺🇸
YAY!!! SAM AND ANGELA IS ON!!!
Congratulations you two!
This is a keeper to my library! ☮️💟🙏🇺🇸🇮🇱🇺🇦✝️
Angela, I’m a tool girl, too! I just built a 10 x 22 building to house my tools.
That’s what I love long videos I can watch u all day lol but I bet your backs are hurting by the end of the day looking at Angela is like looking at myself 15 yrs ago I am now 72 can’t do much anymore but love watching you two
Nice to see floors done. osculating tool is def a must have when doing jobs like this saves lotta time and pulling Stapels is an all-day job really. yall are so cute working together.
I love the sound when you record on time lapse
The old floor didn’t look rotted. I just bought my first mobile so I am interested in what you guys are doing. It’s fun watching you ❤
You guys don't know how lucky you are that your home was built prior to spray foam. Every single of our exterior walls were spray foamed to the sheetrock. Between that and the staples I'm getting sick of this project. I can't wait until we get to the point where we're putting up Sheetrock and flooring. And I think I might cry when we get to paint. Hopefully once we move permanently to our property it will start going quicker. 🤞🙏. I prefer the stubby pry bar also, my husband likes a full size crowbar lol. I thought I was the only girl who loves cool tool 🤣. I have no idea why I enjoy watching you guys do the same things we're doing, I guess misery loves company. 🤣🤣🤣 Those boys melt my heart, so adorable 🥰
Ran a repair business for several years repairing manufactured homes. Done a lot of subfloors and found it beneficial to sister the floor joist at the subfloor joints. Made it faster and much more solid.
Not unheard of for some manufacturers to place mobile home walls down on already carpeted floors! CHEERS from Vancouver Island! P.S. the unit I have now was plywood floors from factory. Mobile homes like everything else ---some better built than others!
I believe most if not all of them do, it's much quicker to lay all the flooring throughout the home before putting up the walls.
Hi from just over the water in Powell River! :). My mobile home had rotten subfloors so I redid all of them with plywood and reclaimed fir flooring. Inexpensive and looks amazing!
Hi saw your video of moving your home thought you where both down to earth lovely people so went back and watched from the begging and I'm now back to the present loved watching you all grow together as a loving family the boys always looking for ways to help and laughing along with you definitely at the end credits video's anyway just wanted to say hello from Liverpool in the UK
I like the teamwork. It sure is tough in that heat. Can't wait to see the results.
o k guys, after many years of watching many great channels on tube, this is the very first time I have ever commented. First of all thank you for the quality of your channel, and as a retired law enforcement officer and 30 year business owner and father, the quality time and effort you spend with your two boys. my wife of 50 years and I have really enjoyed you and your family starting your homestead on your new property. What an endevor you all have taken on. But this brings up a question we just have to ask. we have been fans of Josh of Stoney ridge farmer. and have noticed you have formated your channel a lot like his, and a lot of your narrowation is the same. He, like you all, have started on a shoe string and got many sponcers and has really taken off. At any rate, we really are enjoying watching your efforts and hard work to make this place the homestead of your dreams, and I am so impressed by all the hard work you folks are applying to fulfil your goals. God Bless your family and you and your homestead are in our prayers. Thanks and may this be the best place ever Don and Chris Paine Belton, Tx.
Been rebuilding these trailers for years never is one remodel the same great vid guys
Also in future put insulation off the top of floor joist and glue the joist will stop movement and sqeeki ng
@@kevinmorrow5144 I'm curious by what you meant by saying "put insulation off the top of the floor joists"
You two are doing such an awesome job. I’m with you two not gluing floors down. I’ve had to go back and so glad I didn’t glue down!🥰
I love the way you work together to improve your home. Also I am so happy that the boys just play and develop their imaginations while you work.
Most important they are learning to invest in their homes and take pride in the results while developing skills. Love to you all.
You are so kind, thank you! They LOVE playing outside when the weather is nice, and area usually very creative in their adventures! :)
Yes, and those boy's are wonderful! I never get tired of seeing them. They have the perfect blend of interaction between self play and parent involvement👍👍
You both work great together and I can’t wait to see it all finish
I love tools too. So hubby and I pick out tools together.
Sam, she's a keeper..don't let Angela get away..
I am amazed they didn't add outer sheathing to the mobile before adding the tin. That doesn't give much rigidity to the home but I guess it lessens the weight, but WOW, not a strong wall.
Older Mobile homes don;t have the plastic- new ones have it because they have vinyl siding- mine is a 77 which the yr the industry changed into making them differently
Our 90s model is constructed the same. We are in the process of a total rehab and are using T1-11 as our siding. We may add a different siding in the future, but that will go right over the T1-11. So it serves two purposes. I was also shocked to see nothing but metal.
@@darleneclark6098 i like that better than vinyl siding! The thing is ,i saw a brand new one delivered and they didn't even have the house wrap on the end gable's before they put on the vinyl siding (after piecing the double wide together)- i sent word to my neighbor- to make them put it on the $111,000 mobile home. At least there woud be some protection from the elements if vinyl was loose. They said they don't usually do that. They did do it
@@lovenotes5299 curious what manufacturer it was. 🤔. We looked at many mobile and modular home builders before we decided to rehab our current one. I was not impressed at all with Clayton s construction. Everything was so cheap. They love to put lots of lipstick on a pig, if you know what I mean. They make them look so pretty, but if you really look at the construction and quality of materials it's terrible. We are also putting house wrap under our T1-11.
@@darleneclark6098 I don't know what hers were- their trucks had no signage/names on them-
It is really good that you two can still get along and joke around while under the stress that remodeling causes! Ya'll are doing all the good!
Y’all got a lot done!
Ok y’all, we are empty nesters and have always loved visiting the mountains, Blue Ridge. Appalachian in VA as we live in southeastern VA, and have always dreamed of having a second home and possibly retiring there. However, we are not rich folks and with the cost of building materials, there’s no possible way we could even think of even building a small home, as in tiny. After watching you guys, and hopefully finding some cheap property, we are considering an older mobile home to renovate!
We are inspired!
God bless and I’m dying to see y’all in your home in your new location!
You 2 make a darn good team!!!
Can you explain brushless? Angela, I get the same way with tools! Love watching you guys renovate!
I live in a double wide house I bought in 1988 new we put real good siding on our a front porch and back it looks like house 🏠 ❤️ I love your show
I'm enjoying your mobile home remodel and repair videos; and learning a lot. I don't have notifications turned on for anything; nothing personal but if I'm reading, typing, or watching something I don't want interrupted. Just now, I've looked to see if you have a new video, which you don't. At the same time I had to tell myself that you don't bore us with multiple videos of the same 'ole, same 'ole yet speed through or verbally keep us up to date, you are just 2 people doing both the construction work AND the content generation, plus juggling life, kids, homesteading and garden activities, juggling camper life off grid, working on getting contractor and utility work scheduled and going - Im sure I've missed something. Gotta hand it to you, you're working hard with visible results and visions of a less hectic second year.
We really appreciate your observations!
Looking good, you guy's have come a long way I remember when you guy's had only 50 subs
Great video. I so look forward to your updates. Keep up the great work. So glad your dreams are coming together. Lord Bless.
You both sure work well together!! And … Sure do love your “working music!” Sam, I like how well you explain the process as you move along!! Again … You Both are Really Neat People and a Nice Family!! God Bless You Both Always!! 😀 🎚🇺🇸
Sam and Angela, don't you get jealous of those Super Humans putting that floor in "faster than a speeding bullet"? AND I assume they were "cool as a cucumber" while they were doing it. LOL
Whoa this is awesome!!! Almost a movie :)
Its a good habit...buying tools🥰. Glad the floor is done onwards and upwards.🥰🙏
Another video that didn't disappoint. Not that any of yours ever have.
Another educational, exciting ,funny video.
Who would guess you would get all that watching someone laying a floor .
Only you could pull that off.
Waiting for the next episode.
Don't stop including the bloopers at the end.
Looking great guys!!
What a hard job. But it has to be done. Thanks for sharing with us. God bless your family.
You’re channel is my favorite! Sam and Angela, you remind me of my husband and I in so many ways. I love how you work together and get jobs accomplished. Nine years ago today our footers were poured on our property in the country. It’s been an adventure but we’ve loved every minute of it.
Just bought my first mobile home it's a 2014 and everything is still as it was when it was put where it sits and I wish I had someone with y'all's expertise close by to help me here in Florida 😅
You Guys work GREAT together I wish My Wife would do what yours is doing
As usual, y’all did a great job. It’s hard work but y’all are doing it right.
You two are SUCH a great team. So in sync.
Looking forward to the next installment. Hope it cools off a bit for you, too.
Floor looks good, your boys are cute.
Love the music choices, and you guys do good work. I would have fallen through the floor for sure.
Angela is getting to be quite the carpenter , love it . Everything looking good 👍 . You guys are a good team .
You stapled the insulation that is good Idea I am missing some of my sub floor.
You sure do a good job on installing flooring and know how to finish the job. My dad used to say that'll last until the cows come home.
Angela, I understood your jargon perfectly!
Great job, I hope you guys put a storm shelter in next to your home. I live in an area where tornadoes and storms are bad and have seen what tornadoes will do to mobile homes. Please build one for your family. Love watching your videos. Blessings
We really really want one!
Oh no!!! Not tent caterpillars!! -- This project reminds me of the day I discovered they used fiberboard in the front bathroom of my folk's 1970s-era Fleetwood 14 ft. wide mobile with no blocking under the toilet installation. Guess what happened. I can appreciate how much work your floor project took...and in that heat! Shame about your oscillating tool but great you got a new one. I watched you use it back in NC and went to the big-box store to get one of my own. The hubs borrows it all the time :)
Sam get yourself some gel knee pads. I’m a larger dude like you with a bad right knee , I bought a pair of tuffbuilt gel pads from Lowes and I can literally fall onto my knees with these on. They have a hard exterior and gel inside. I’m restoring a RV camper and almost done with flooring myself.
Love your videos.
Thanks for the recommendation!
The video on moving your home came from the feed from another and here I am subscribed. May Y’all have a Blessed one
Welcome to our channel! :)
A finger whim….I’m stealing that.
You two work so well together. Angela, you are my new role model. I love how you just get to work, no muss, and no fuss. Sam, I like your take on trying to do things perfectly. It's not always achievable, you just have to get used to it. Loved the show. Blessings!
When I did this as a young man for a job we would buy 1/4 “ plywood sanaded on one side and put it down over the old floor and nail it with ring shanks every six inches like a checkerboard indenting the nail head followed up with a coat of floor patch over nails and taped joints hit it with a quick sanding and put the new flooring down,
I LOVE MY OCILATEING TOOL AS WELL
Thanks guys. Great teamwork. Glad to see you making progress.
You folks work well together!
Great job 👍. The bloopers 😂😂😂😂
Take care and be blessed. Glad you got the floor done. Yeah!
Love your channel so far. You should really apply glue to the joists before you lay your plywood, it prevents a lot of floor noises and squeaks.
thats where my green handled hammer went ive been looking all over for it
I would like to say thank you for making these videos....I have had my mobile home for 8 years but mine is a 1986 Plymouth and I have to do all the subflooring and installation....a long with build my own cabinets......I have never done subflooring before and you guys just gave me extreme confidence that I can do this.....thank you and please keep making videos lol......
I'll have to see if you did a complete bathroom renovation because I also have to replace the flooring under my tub....I think 😢😢
Great video. Love the bloopers at the end.
Thank you so much 💗 you all gave me hope in life just you two working together like you do. And thanks for all the tips on the floors...
And the screws hold much better than nails
Be glad your flooring was not glued down also.
Those are the best screws. Found by accident and I would say best brand.
Factory edge out. Cut edge in. My respects to anyone as crazy as me to tackle this. With the price of stick builds soaring rehabbing an older MH makes sense.Kudos for dumping SOB oops I mean OSB for plywood. You won’t regret it.
Go Angela I like tools as much my hubby too! I use the stubby pry bar also it’s a girl thing🙃.👍💞
✋me too lol
You guys are so adorable to watch!! Thank you Ang & Sam!
Good seeing the boys!
You guys are so real and such a help to people to learn from your journey.
I have the same addiction tools. I love the bloopers at the end. Great conversation with the boys. Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks again for sharing your very thoughtful and informative instructions for DIYers. so many of us appreciate your way of sharing your experiences..every day is a new experience…have a wonderful day..
Thank you guys for your videos, I have a mobile home and I have learned so much from you guys!
LOVE YOUR RENAVATIION. Love your chanel you do give good instruction.. keep it up.
good job, I always glue my subfloor down to the floor joist whether I'm using screws or nails, eliminate squeaks later on
I just got a new Ryobi brushless Oscillating multi-tool for remodeling my mobile home. Don't like the switch on it, hard to turn on and can't shut it off right away. I just might be switching to Carsftman cordless power tools! Working on replacing the bottom plate on the walls and repairing or replacing any rim joist that are bad.
Just starting to be brave enough to record what I'm doing! My channel isn't nearly as good as yours, but still fun to help others who might need it. Will be posting a new video tomorrow night. Plywood? Next thing you'll be using Shiplap! 😅 Great job, love what you're doing!
Always enjoy watching and learning remodeling tips. Also admire your positive attitude and practical approach to solving issues as you come to them. Sure beats watching some of these lawn cutting videos.
Thanks for the knowledge guys. Super teamwork👍. God Bless You All😇.
A fast moving project at least for us. I love renovation on about anything if I'm not the only one trying to get it done nice and fast. See you next time.
Just found your channel and cant wait to go back and watch your home make over! 💕💕💕💕❤
I’m just wondering why you didn’t throw the nasty installation under the floor sense you had to do the floor I was just wondering?
Looks like the boys are doing an Archeology dig!
I am glad you got that done, it will be a strong sturdy floor from now on. I can't tell you how many houses that I have repaired. It is amazing the work you 2 can get done, working together makes the job faster.
Enjoy watching your videos
How awesome. I am so excited for you guys
Those boys are just so cute! What a wonderful way for them to grow up in the country.
