Trailer Park Boy Strikes Again
Not really a show stopper but the Mrs HO of this mobile is going to be coming home in a wheelchair so the sunken living room floor just would not work for her.
The little landing by the front door was super squeaky so I cut it out too. ![]() 2x4 sleepers ripped to 3" and glued and screwed to subfloor ![]() Plywood glued and screwed to sleepers, ready for carpet. I used G1S in case anyone ever wants to put something different in there. ![]() Starting the roof on monday ![]() ![]()

She will be utterly shocked, her husband had this done in stealth mode before she comes home.

Re: Trailer Park Boy Strikes Again
They are getting new carpet through most of the trailer, they wanted something non slippery so laminate or wood was out.

Re: Trailer Park Boy Strikes Again
i commend your bravery working on a trailer, i tried a few jobs in the past when i first got up and running and since then made a policy, NO TRAILER WORK even if it pays me a million dollars
![]() ![]() That should work out very nicely for her |

Re: Trailer Park Boy Strikes Again
Started the roof today, went pretty well, the old shingles tore up like fruit leather, easiest tear off I have ever seen I think. The one half we did was torn off, staples pulled and swept in just over an hour.
![]() This is going bye bye tomorrow ![]() Another one with no paper under the shingles, just a strip of plastic at the eave ![]() ![]() Ice and Water, 30lb felt ![]() Today at 4, left with my first sunburn of the year.

I've never really even watched too many episodes, but it is funny as hell.

Re: Trailer Park Boy Strikes Again
Are those real 2 x 4 rafters I saw in the ridge vent opening? I was told that trailers use 2 x 2's which I found hard to believe, that's why it always stuck in my head.

Re: Trailer Park Boy Strikes Again
Yes 2x4 rafters, only the really old trailers used 2x2 for anything. The new ones have 2x6 exterior walls and 2x4 trusses.
