Mobile Home Leveling Service

Why Is It Essential To Level Your Mobile Home?

Having a mobile home requires some essential care and maintenance, which includes leveling your mobile home when you notice the foundation beginning to shift. This process involves the use of special hydraulic jacks which raise the mobile home up and then supports and secures it at a level position. A mobile home should be leveled regularly, sometimes as often as annually depending where you live. This is vital to protect the foundation of the mobile home from shifting and moving over the years.

Leveling Your Home Can Prevent Serious Damage

Mobile homes that are not kept level can lead to serious damage as walls become misaligned, windows break or glass chips out, and water may even seep in through roof/eave cracks. When you level your mobile home, you help to prevent these issues. However, if these problems already occurred, you will need to also hire a mobile home repair service. Don’t wait to level your manufactured home! Leveling a mobile home is essential for preserving it for your family to live in over the years to come, and should not be put off. A mobile home that lost its proper level can also lead to skirting damage. If you have damaged mobile home skirting, we have a comprehensive mobile home skirting repair service that only takes 1-3 days to complete repairs!

Can't I Re-Level My Mobile Home Foundation Myself?

Leveling a mobile home foundation yourself is possible, but carries with it a lot of potential risk. Improperly doing mobile home re leveling can result in damaged floor systems, plumbing and infrastructure damage, as well as cause further structural problems down the road. Homeowners who decide to re-level their own mobile home also run the risk of using the wrong equipment, introducing extra stress to the mobile home’s frame, or even causing potential injury.

Avoid The Risks Of a "DIY" Home Leveling Approach

It’s important for mobile home owners to be aware of the dangers that come with attempting their own mobile home re leveling without professional help. Without proper preparation and adequate experience in mobile home re leveling, the dangers posed by improper leveling become more serious. Leveling mobile homes incorrectly can potentially cost you $1,000s of dollars in damages, reduce the resale potential of your home, and just generally give you a long-term headache!

Our experienced manufactured homes technicians have access to the professional tools and methods necessary to safely complete your mobile home re leveling and avoid these unnecessary risks.

We Can Retrofit a Mobile Home in Texas, Oklahoma or Florida

An FHA loan requirement, mobile home retrofitting provides a system concreted into the ground to level mobile homes. This is possible even with unleveled ground underneath mobile homes. Retrofitting a mobile home allows you to connect your frame to concrete to fulfill requirements by FHA and other loan services. We use tie downs and metal anchors, and ensure everything is done to industry standard. While you need to check with your loan provider, it is typically the case that a retrofit foundation is required for mobile and manufactured homes. 

Our Foundation Retrofits Can Meet FHA Home Loan Standards

For the retrofit to meet FHA standards, it needs to be done in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions and any federal, state, or local building codes or ordinances. When retrofitting is complete, it must include enough supports and reinforcements that allow for adequate loading and lateral pressures of the existing soil and future mobile home weight loads.

Steel anchors must also be placed in a reinforcing pattern around the perimeter of the retrofitted area. These retrofitting efforts will ensure all FHA loan criteria are met so that, hopefully, the mobile home loan can be approved! 

As part of our commitment to providing better pricing, we are currently offering a special $2,599 service fee on our mobile home retrofit systems. This complete retrofit service can be applied to all types of mobile and manufactured homes and comes with a five-year warranty.
