    I appreciate the fact that you take very large projects and cut them down into bite sized pieces. It gives the rest of us encouragement when we take on projects of our own ♡

    • @eviefieseler1093
      @eviefieseler1093 Před 6 měsíci +12

      Bite sized pieces, yep! And also so valuable is the way you always teach us the "satisfaction benefit" of going the extra mile instead of rushing slapdash through whatever task you're doing. ❤

      I was so afraid you were going to drop the door. I love this series, every day I can't wait to see what you're working on. I like you give an explanation for why you do things like changing the swing of the door I wouldn't have thought about the flow.

    Should you have put extra blocking under the door since there is a door there? Most mobile homes have 2 sets of brick blocking under the front door because most heavy things come in the front.

    Just wanna say thanks for the 30 minute video. Sometimes the shorter videos feel just too short. Love following you guys, love your work. I live in a mobile home and though I would not attempt to any of that type of work if needed, rather Would have to hire out . Watching you and knowing you like things "done right" gives me more knowledge of how things should be done. I don't mind the repetition, I'm one who needs that, anyway Thanks for bringing us along yet again. Until next, time see ya!

    It’s amazing how much damage water can do. It travels so easily into everything. Termites love the moist wood. I hope you don’t find too much more. But you’re so right that’s an old mobile home and it’s held up well when no one was doing much maintenance. I heard Maverick at the end lol

    Cant believe that old door was still on there, with how badly the wood was rotted all around it. I was thinking anyone else would have burned the place down anc started over from scratch. The new door is beautiful! Its just like our side door but we are in Texas, the Lone Star state, so it has a double meaning!

  • @kebl1965
    @kebl1965 Před 5 měsíci +3

    I just in case you aren’t aware, it is advisable to install a pier under the rim joist as close as possible to be underneath the edges of the door. This will help prevent uneven settling and a subsequent leak on your door. Also it’s always a good idea to have plywood span at least three framing members. This helps prevent a hinge effect.
    Keep up the good work!

    I don't know if you plan on selling this trailer but I know you guys have fixed up a few places in the past and sold them and wondered if you tell the buyer about your CZcams channel I think it would be a good selling point and also neat for the new owner to be able to watch what all went into there new place also if they wondered how something was done they can literally just watch old videos 📹

    @Lougan44 Před 5 měsíci +3

    Be sure you caulk around doors and windows! Caulk around all outside trim. Paintable caulk if you ever will need to paint trim or siding. ❤. Also there should be double studs on both sides of door frame. If you are replacing siding and putting osb on outside, be sure you put up good vapor barrier. It comes in rolls. Looks like plastic and keeps all moisture from ruining your hard work. Insulate house good. Do all your wiring before you put up insulation. Did you leave room for threshold? The double studs keeps your door more secure from break-ins and causes no door stress. It will swing better. My father and seven big brothers were builders; can you tell? LOL
