Love your videos! While it's nice watching huge top-dollar renovations, I much prefer your style of showing the process of updating a home more slowly as money allows. It's encouraging to see a young family care about something other than bigger and better!!!

Love the idea of spending wisely and upgrading over time. My mobile home currently has pink blinds and carpet in the kitchen but it is functional for now.

Thanks for posting, Kaleigh!! Our daughter would love to have your blinds, I'm sure! Anything pink! Upgrading slowly allows you to take care of the immediate necessities, while still remaining financially responsible.

I really appreciate the way you explain everything in detail. I’m a 20 year old woman who has learned a lot and will start renovating my bathroom.Thank you so much!

I was in the mobile business for years and almost no residential hardware matches up to what is manufactured in an older single wide. Whomever opens up a mobile supply store will make bank..

True enough!

Thank you for these videos. They are very helpful to those of us doing upgrades to mobile homes.

omgosh your videos have been so helpful. I haven't seen recent ones on your mobile home videos.... but my hubby and I are saving up to move into a mobile home... SO HELPFUL AND AT SUCH THE RIGHT TIMING!

I am amazed that the sinks, faucets and tolets looked as good as they did. Like the new ones .

Your old stuff looked new compared to what I had in my 1972 Fleetwood...

I really enjoyed watching this video! Very relateable to the average hard working family.

We have the same faucets and love them. We also remodeled a mobile home bathroom (new toilet, tub, surround, counter/sink/faucet, and added wainscoting).

That's awesome! It makes such a difference doesn't it?!

Your videos give me hope♥️

So happy to find your videos! I also have a mobile home (1981) and I love it, too! Had to laugh when I saw your original bathroom sinks; they were exactly the same as mine! I’ve been slowly doing improvements to my home, and since it’s just me doing the work (with a few exceptions) I haven’t replaced the bathroom sinks yet. I just finished painting the exterior, with help from my daughter. I have a doublewide, so it took approximately 3 days, but it turned out so good. Got the paint on sale, so it only cost $104. Watching for deals like that allow me to do improvements, which I’m sure you can appreciate. Keep the videos coming, I’m really enjoying them!

I love the style of videos you guys create 🥰

Your video on the bathroom renovation is helpful. Thank you. We are in the midst of one now. Our focus is on ceiling now and ceiling fan replacement. We are putting bead board on ceilings and walls. Working with popcorn ceilings. (Whah)

Loved the video, I have a garden tub, how do I give it a face lift?

Would like to see more of the final result. Smart idea to change toilets and wash basins, and also faucets. The shower head looked good too.

This was great I swear our toilet that came with our home is ment for a doll house our 4 year old loves it loljust her size butter with us other 4 ranging from 6ft to 6foot4 lol not so good thanks for sharring

I like the idea of the drop-in sink! Kudos to you guys...I remodeled one of my mom's bathrooms in her mobile home and I weighed the "needs & wants" as well....so leaving the sink as is was one of the things I saved on.

Id love to know best way to replace upgraded hardware in bathtub I have a 1984 mobile and want to put some nice tub fixtures in but can't find anything because pipe ends are too small, we'd love any advice.

Can you use exhaust fan for a regular home to a manufactured home? Like the Panasonic FV-08-11VF5 WhisperFitEZ Fan 80 or 110 CFM. Thanks

How do you waterproof the bathroom walls after replacing them? I do want to tile or use tub surround.

Ok... we are redoing our mobile home one room at a time. Next we are tackling the bathroom. Loved the info and products used on your remodel. Huge question.... how did you remove/remodel the tub? Ours is old and hideous and I can’t wait to tear it out 😃 Thanks for information!!!

I too have my wants and needs list. I prefer a shower and have NO storage. So now, I'm wondering if it would be cheaper to a) remove my garden tub, install a larger shower and convert old shower to storage, or b) keep the tub, add surround and faucets to convert, and convert small shower to storage?

We are finally able to renovate our 30 year old single wide. Interested in seeing your reno video

My boyfriend and I just purchased a mobile home & I’m 5 months pregnant at the moment. It needs a bit of work, but what I noticed needed immediate attention is the bathroom. I often smell odd smells from the drains/toilet plumbing I’m guessing because I smell poop sometimes (gross I know could be the smell everything pregnancy nose) & also found out very quickly that our bathroom sink doesn’t turn on at all. (Any suggestions on if we should just gut out the old sink & replace it?) Also have a walk in shower that I would love to turn into a tub/shower eventually. We’re 23 & on a tight budget, any advice would be helpful!

Hi! I love your video! I wanted to ask if you know any place or where to find a shower tub for like a 54x30 for my small mobile home? It’s pretty old and watching your videos help a lot! I look at Menards and Home Depot and I can’t find any. I’m asking for your help please.

I have a manufactured home. Heat is vented under vanity, and the plumbing snakes like a s from one sink to the other taking up the entire cabinet u underneath. How do I change this vanity to one with drawers..

I thought you were going to show new cabinets and such. My daughter's sink had a leak and now the cabinet smells the horrible smell and I want to see if I could possible do a new one or if I should hire someone.

We had those exact same plastic sinks, and replaced them with the same stuff you did. Luckily both bathrooms and kitchen sink had standard rough opening and everything just dropped in. My neighbor has a 70's mobile home, and I changed her kitchen sink, and it really opened up a can of worms, due to odd rough opening sizes. Anyway good video and content!

How can I install a shower head and faucet on a corner shower in a mobile home? Trying to figure out where the lines and plumbing parts will go behind the shower wall. The shower wall will be attached to the actual bathroom wall. Please help!!!

Ohmygosh! This was very helpful. But I have a question! Woukd you be willing to do a video on how you removed the casing to your bathtub and installed the tiles? I noticed in your video it showed your tub and it had tile! I cannot find ANYTHING on ripping out the ugly plastic surround in our bathroom and its so frustrating! 😭😭 I just want something that isnt YELLOW and tub/tile reno kits that you can get at home dept and lowes can't be used on plastic tubs amd surrounds! Please help!

Did you change out the outdated shower doors and if so do you have a video on that looking to redo my bathroom but I don’t want to rip out the shower I would like to change the doors though

I just moved into a 1980 Hilltop single wide in really good condition. right now, painting inside of kitchen cabinets. gonna paint inside everywhere. One concern.... I want to get the tub removed and replace with a shower. The tub appears to be steel with a false front. It's about 27" x 54" with a false front. I want to replace it with a fiber glass shower enclosure, 32 x 48, or there about. What kind of pain is it to get that tub out? Is it super heavy??? I will call a handy man if we can get the damn thing out. No hurry, just planning. Carol

My tenants painted my bathtub surround wall and toilet . How do I remove that paint? Thank you

had I have a 1998 model and I started with two room that I save with painting and removing carpet putting wood floor and I save by gone to hadtit that I got in Florida now I am remodel the bathroom please give me pointer in these. Please Thank You!

We have a 2004 mobile home. One bathroom works perfect, three people use it.. My 85 year old mom has the master bathroom. We have a garden unused tub. We have had an ongoing problem with the toilet. My mom wears diapers, and uses the toilet very little compared to the smaller bathroom. We replaced the toilet about 4 years ago because it never worked right. Flushing is still a problem. Three months ago a plumber charged $750, snaked the pipe and found no clog yet the toilet was flushing when he was done. Now same problem. When we flush the toilet it appears to be flushing toward the garden tub and not to the septic. It's a low flow toilet so it's not backing up into the garden tub. There is no roof vent pipe. There is a vent under the bathroom sink, does this control the toilet? I've read a toilet will not work without a vent.

How do you fix busted pipes in shower and sinks

How do I find someone to trust to install new bathroom fixtures, etc. ? I have a gross original tub/shower that will cave in eventually because it is from the 1980’s. You are incredible giving info and this went by so fast. I hope you can have time to answer questions. I’m in Mesa, Az. So far cannot find qualified/worthy remodels for my manufactured home.

Beth, thank you for your comment! When you say, "cave in", what do you mean exactly? Is the floor sagging in the bathroom, or does it feel spongy when you walk on it? This would indicate a more serious moisture problem with the subfloor, and that would require some major attention. As for the bathroom remodel, I would agree that it's difficult to find tradesmen who are willing to work on mobile homes. For some reason there's a stigma attached to working on a mobile home, and it frightens some tradesmen mostly because of their lack of familiarity with them. When in reality, doing work on a mobile home is very similar, if not the same in most cases, as to a stick home. I would begin your search where most homeowners do, www.HomeAdvisor.com. Search your area for very specific needs, like "Remodel a bathroom". Do your due diligence and read people's reviews of the tradesman, or company. If it were me, I would focus my search on people with a lot of good reviews, as most people would. Remember, my opinion is that people are more capable than they realize. Remodeling may sound difficult and daunting, but you can save a lot of money by taking the DIY approach, while consulting with a tradesman along the way. Perhaps consider doing partial work to save a few dollars. I hope this helps, please let me know what other questions you have!

Our Journey To Bliss I have consulted with home advisors but have not found any licensed remodeling companies who do work on manufactured homes. The garden tub floor is feeling spongey especially around the drain. And the drain is most times extra slow. I’m assuming the tub needs to be removed, plumbing is at a slow failure, sub flooring is likely rotting away. I’m most concerned about the fact that my neighbors were the sellers and when they come back to AZ next spring and ask how everything is working that I prefer to be honest. The dryer has never worked & there’s a sewage stench that fillers the indoors that is smelling toxic. It comes from the floor vents. Or do I just sell it and move ? Thank you so much for taking time from your extra busy day to help problem solve. I appreciate any suggestions.

My wife and i really enjoy watching your videos and have gained alot of confidence in our choice to go with a manufactured home. Purchasing a manufactured home will allow us to have it paid off in 10 years as apposed to having a 30 year mortgage. I do want to ask how much your 1980s trailer cost without the land and how much the tow delivery was as well thank you

@OurJourneyToBliss

JJ, thanks for posting! Excited for your next season! We purchased the home as-is, already attached to land. So we got it all together as on unit. For an older mobile home that was built after 1976, in good condition, you should expect to pay anywhere from $5,000 to $15,000. If it's newer, like 2000's up, you could pay more. Tow delivery can run you anywhere from $3,000 and up, depending on if it's a single wide, double wide, distance, etc.

I appreciate the video brother! Hey I'm currently trying to remodel my mobile home bathroom...but I can not for the life of me find where to cut off the shower water supply. Can you point me in the right direction? I would greatly appreciate it!

@OurJourneyToBliss

What year and make is it? If it's an older home, like ours, chances are you will not have shut off valves at every water source in the home. In order for us to do the work in our bathrooms, we have to shut the water off to the entire home. There are other ways to do it, but this was the easiest. Just go to your water meter outside, lift the metal lid, and you should see a small valve you can turn. Once turned, go and turn on an outside faucet to make sure there is no water coming out after a couple seconds. This ensures the main water supply is shut off to the house. Now you will be able to work on any plumbing in the home. Once you're plumbing work is complete, turn the main shut off valve back on, and go test the work you did for any leaks. ***If you have a newer home, you may have shut off valves behind the wall of your shower. They would be in an access panel behind your hot/cold water handles. Pop the panel open and you should see them. Just turn them and you're ready to work. Hope this helps!

Yes! You just unscrew (with water off) and screw on another with plumbers tape.

I grew up in 63 mobile home. My parents brought it brand new. Mobile home depreciate bad.. my both died and mobile got demolished.. it was nightmare, the rotten wood, and mold behind the shower.

You absolutely can remodel mobile homes. They are no different in their remodeled than if you had a site built home. Unfortunately, it can get expensive having to tear out the entire one piece. Maybe check out ReBath in your area, and get a free quote from them. Also try HomeAdvisor.com for quotes. Perhaps someone in your area would have an easier and cheaper solution. As for the hot tub, I would not put one inside your home. One option would be to build a small outdoor room to house a hot tub. You can even elevate the room, like with our back room, in order to have it on the same level as your home. Still, it costs some money to do, so price shop and negotiate on materials and labor costs. Let me know what other questions you have, and keep us updated! Praying for a quick solution to bring you quick relief!
