Paul seems to think we do it the way he did it. I say it’s the other way, but there is already a vapor barrier, so it really doesn’t matter which way it goes at that point.

I own a '77 single|wide but I live out West, in Northern Nevada. It was actually manufactured in Southern California though. And it's a lot colder in the winter here than in SoCal. My heating ducts lie just under my subfloor. There is no insulation between the ducts and the subfloor. And under the ducts in the underbelly, it's just crammed beneath the belly board. I'm wondering if the location is why. I've never lived in a trailer before. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I laughed when I once heard you say, "you never know what you're gonna find" once you open it up. Just when I think I understand what's going on, I come across something truly crazy. Like um, the toilet that was relocated to the center of the heating duct... That's just one of the innumerable problems I've discovered. I don't open a can of worms, I open trash bins of snakes. Big ones too! And in Nevada there's a manufactured housing division of state government, which requires any contractor to be licensed by manufactured housing. Great concept, however it completely prices me out of any reputable and affordable work. No one will even help me, except idiots who are unlicensed. Essentially requires me to perform all my own repairs. I don't know how I'm going to get the porch detached from the trailer. Yes, literally bolted into the side of it which is pulling it down. I'm basically f*#ked.

No sorry

Never give a contractor up-front money "for materials". Any contractor worth his salt has "net 30" accounts wherever he gets his materials (meaning he doesn't have to pay for the materials for 30 days after he gets them). If he hasn't done enough work within 30 days to pay for the materials, then he's worth less than nothing, no matter how big the job is. It's fine to pay them for work-completed in stages so he can pay for the materials and labor, but that should happen AFTER each stage of the work is complete, not before.
