Thank you soooo much for your content it really helped me with my single wide. I just had a couple of leaks through the vapor barrier and wanted to learn how to repair it correctly, you guys showed me how and so much more thank you for all the help
No thank you , so I watched one of your videos on how to repair vapor barrier leak. It was so helpful that I did a deep dive into a few more of your videos which helped me understand how they are built. I have a single wide 1985 Cavco. Thank you once again for all your hard work and the great video
Thumb Up just to watch Paul maneuver an extended period of work. Oh. My. Been there not done that, yet. Thank you. Stay safe. Remember that spray glue don’t mix well with lit cigarettes.
Thank you for stopping by and watching my friend. I hope you enjoyed it and we don’t smoke cigarettes while we’re under the house spraying that glue that’s for sure. Thanks for your comments my friend I appreciate you more to come on my Roofing Channel.
Loving your videos. Do you have any mentioning how you would secure wrap edges near the metal beams? In my situation the belly wrap was fully degraded, and don't have free space to pass the material between metal beam and floor joists.
Take a 2 x 2 and a tarp roll one end up nail it to the floor, Joyce or screw it to the floor Joyce and then pull it to the other side with another one by two or one by one. Whatever do the same thing if you have to cut it for any reason, cut it, you can put a patch over the cut
I put the plastic on the ground so that we could work on it instead of crawling around in the dirt. The dirt overtime will kill your knees plastic as much better to work on top of.
Great video guys thanks for sharing all this information. my question is in your video. I see you have the ground covered with plastic. My trailer is in Nokomis, Florida about an hour south of Tampa is this something you recommend for trailers in the south ones that are sitting on sand
Well, I like the moisture barrier on the ground as it will keep most of the ground moisture down underneath ground moisture is what Rhines most mobile homes. They start rusting the frames deteriorate so keeping the moisture down is important where I live. I also have a dehumidifier under my house.
who you gonna call, no brainier... thxs for sharing...most ppl in trailers do not have the money to do it right or so it seems, this home owner understands the value of these types of repairs
Awesome video guys! I am wondering where do you get the products? do you have a link for the underbelly fabric and the buttons and glue? How many cans of glue do you typically need also? Thanks.
You can buy the underbelly at Most Lowe’s hardware everything I show in the video you can actually buy at Lowe’s hardware at least I did good luck with your project
Yes sir I'm sorry to bother you I'm just wondering is when it comes to my air duct am I to cover it up with this Tyvek that I have or am I to leave it uncovered that's where I'm puzzled but I hope yall are having a good day any advice would help any advice would be appreciated
You probably better than anyone would know the answers to these questions I have. How much protection from mice, rats and raccoons is the underbelly when it is properly done? and what is the best set up for the mobile home to be sitting on, concrete pad, concrete runners , dirt or gravel? I watch you all working under them and it seems like concrete might make it easier, and more space definitely would.
That is exactly what it’s called underbelly fabric. You can buy it on Amazon. You can also buy it at Lowe’s hardware or Home Depot. That’s where I bought mine.
You say "Extra strength 3M, use that underbelly" as in the underbelly fabric but are you going with similar grade that is another brand on Amazon? Can't seem to find that stuff. What size is the roll you were using?
Joel I used was 14 x 80 and I bought it at a Mobile Home Supply store. You can’t buy it at Lowe’s. Go check your Mobile Home Supply stores. You’ll find it and it’s not that expensive.
Is there a email address where i can ask a question about this type of work? I have people who need the flooring of a mobile home removed and its from flooding and if the insulation isnt removed itll cause mold
Do you have any videos of how to do the side section? Have to completely replace underbelly on my double wide, not sure how to do it where it sits above the frame.
drew is it common for a 2019 clayton single to have some soft spots in the floor? i with a good dry moist barrier?? is it just poor construction? settling ? also just the linoleum floors i heard u can feel alll the soft spots with it vs hardwood
If I were you, I would put 3 inches of gravel under my entire mobile home. It will soak up a lot of water. You’ll be surprised and if you have room put a dehumidifier under there you can buy at Lowe’s for 250 bucks. That’s what I did.
I wish that there was someone around my area that did work on mobile homes. Because my wife and I are both disabled. We can't afford to pay to much to have new windows and the under belly replaced along with installation put back in. I did have my nephew replace the flooring and that is when I found out that all of the installation and under belly was bad. Now the plumbing in the bathroom is making a noise.
If that is the only place you have to put the insulation because you’re underbelly is gone. Yes use the method that I did. What you wanna do is put blown insulation in there or you can just use bat insulation like I did. It’s up to you blown insulation would be fine, you can just put the rolls in it just like Paul and I did

Thank you for showing us how to do these repairs. You have been a huge help!
I’m always glad to help
Wow, you guys may be the only people left that will work on mobile homes.
We like working on mobile homes

Good advice. Thanks for posting these vids! I'm gonna do my underbelly this summer.
Get it done
🎉Always stopping by here to learn and leaving you my like and thanks for everything. Greetings from Nebraska 🎉
Thanks for the visit
Beautiful work! And nice explanation. Thank you. Was the plastic on the ground already there? 5mm?
I put the plastic on the ground so that we could work on it instead of crawling around in the dirt. The dirt overtime will kill your knees plastic as much better to work on top of.

Hi Drew definitely a good work . Can't imagine how you do the job under the house with a narrow space. Well done. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👍🤟❤️
Thanks 👍

I would cover it with Tyvek for sure. I don’t think I would leave it open. I covered mine within insulation and.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!!
Thank you for watching my friend. I do this for you not necessarily for me.

No real protection at all. Underpinning will work best for that. Concrete. If they were sitting on concrete, that would be nice.
It's a lot of hard work, but the repair is really nice.😊
Yes, thanks
Name of the underbelly fabric? Awesome video 👍
That is exactly what it’s called underbelly fabric. You can buy it on Amazon. You can also buy it at Lowe’s hardware or Home Depot. That’s where I bought mine.
Where are you located? We need our entire undervelly repaired
Southport, North Carolina
Do you have any more of those Drew's Roofing and Home Repair hoodies?
Nothing new. I have a couple I have worn left. That’s it
@@Drewsroofingandhomerepair oh, well.
You say "Extra strength 3M, use that underbelly" as in the underbelly fabric but are you going with similar grade that is another brand on Amazon? Can't seem to find that stuff. What size is the roll you were using?
Joel I used was 14 x 80 and I bought it at a Mobile Home Supply store. You can’t buy it at Lowe’s. Go check your Mobile Home Supply stores. You’ll find it and it’s not that expensive.
That 3M spray is the bomb
Is there a email address where i can ask a question about this type of work? I have people who need the flooring of a mobile home removed and its from flooding and if the insulation isnt removed itll cause mold
Roofing contractor 28461@gmail.com
does the underbelly material need to breathe? i.e. would it be a mistake to use a roll of 6 mil airtight polyethylene ?
I would probably suggest using underbelly as it does breathe. I feel like solid plastic might cause issues between the floor.
Hi Drew, I do have a 24 by 56 double wide, how much does it cost to have this done???? Thank you
Lots of work involved. Removal. reframing duct work insulation on pipes. Around 10,000 L/m
Do you have any videos of how to do the side section? Have to completely replace underbelly on my double wide, not sure how to do it where it sits above the frame.
No, I don’t have any and it’s not easy
Good job you guys work great together
Yes we do
drew is it common for a 2019 clayton single to have some soft spots in the floor? i with a good dry moist barrier?? is it just poor construction? settling ? also just the linoleum floors i heard u can feel alll the soft spots with it vs hardwood
No not normal. SOMTHING is wrong.
Drew...where did you get that USPS coat?...I was a carrier now retired
My wife worked there for 34 yrs
@@Drewsroofingandhomerepair now I know there's two hard workers in your family! 😃
would you put any gravel down underneath the mobile home. im having water puddles underneath and moisture coming up to the home
If I were you, I would put 3 inches of gravel under my entire mobile home. It will soak up a lot of water. You’ll be surprised and if you have room put a dehumidifier under there you can buy at Lowe’s for 250 bucks. That’s what I did.
Great job guys ."DON'T GAIN WEIGHT😅😅
Is that plumbing CPVC or is it PEX?
Mix I believe
Will that stick to the old "tar paper" underbelly?
Yes, it will
Remember to share this video too!
Hello my friend. How is everything going
Thanks
No problem
Do you do work in East Tennessee
no sorry
I wish that there was someone around my area that did work on mobile homes. Because my wife and I are both disabled. We can't afford to pay to much to have new windows and the under belly replaced along with installation put back in. I did have my nephew replace the flooring and that is when I found out that all of the installation and under belly was bad. Now the plumbing in the bathroom is making a noise.
get in contact with a church they can help
Dealing with an indoor flood... just cut the underbelly to drain.
Get a dehumidifier as soon as you can. Run it 24 hrs a day till dried up. Maybe a week or more
is blown in insulation ok to use for the floor? It would just be manually dumped into the channels created by the tyvek.
If that is the only place you have to put the insulation because you’re underbelly is gone. Yes use the method that I did. What you wanna do is put blown insulation in there or you can just use bat insulation like I did. It’s up to you blown insulation would be fine, you can just put the rolls in it just like Paul and I did
It's so ,"NARROW" UNDER THAT TRAILER!(Tell "STUBBORN" Paul to keep" that mask &" googles on.
You are right you don’t wanna be a big guy in here
