Most people would look at that mobile home and think it’s trash - haul it away and place a new one on the property. Not you guys!!! You see potential. With some hard work, time and skill -. VOILA !! = new house 🏡 More young folks should get the hint - What an amazing example and inspiration you are !!! ❤
These days itd cost as much to dispose of it as it would to strengthen it . People tend to forget it was a free mobile with the land they bought . .not the other way around . Its about time we went back to repairing rather than dumping I'm really glad to see it . So Im in total agreement with you 😁😁 hi from Ireland 🇮🇪
What’s sad is that usually you can’t get a loan for a trailer especially a 1984 one. Doesn’t matter how well the fix it up. But they said they don’t intend to sell it so it’s all good.
@@roseeckstein6534 all you have to do is have its taxes switched from personal property to real property. My double wide is real property just like a stick built home. No title to it anymore. Home value increases over time like a house also instead of falling like personal property
Everytime I see Ashley or Belle handing you the next screw, I think you are the luckiest man alive. To always have one at the reach is so valuable! It is a much bigger help than it shows.
Ashley, I love watching you help Doug. You always know what he needs, an extra hand, a tool, holding something back, moving stuff out of the way. It's actually rare for people to foresee what's needed. You provide the type of assistance that everyone appreciates. Not sure if you realize that. And...Maverick!!
I would put the eat in kitchen on that end of the house. I would love sitting at a dining room table, drinking coffee and looking out those windows! I’ll keep watching to see if we’re on the same track.
You all do amazing work. Whoever the lucky people are that buy that mobile home are going to enjoy it. They also will have the extra benefit of being able to see how it was assembled again. Go back to your UA-cam videos and you can see the detail that you put into every step along the way.
You did a very good job of removing a useless door to give you more space to live in. It is in my opinion better to have to manage in case of unknown problem, to quickly evacuate the premises TOGETHER, the number of doors you have decided. You win in both cases. You are careful, you always document seriously, before making a decision, on the best standards, norms, and you apply them. I admire your sense of responsibility to protect your family. BRAVO
We were in 120mph micro blast in Northern Minnesota several years ago silos and hip roof barns went down but our 1980 Mobil home with those straps never moved
Belle looks just like her beautiful mom. She is getting so grown up. I miss her drawings. I hope she is still doing her art. I was an art teacher for 45 years, both elementary and high school. Her drawings were so well done and advanced. One of the best drawing books I came across was "Mark Kistler's Draw Squad". It has simple, easy directions for drawing shapes and shading for volume and mass, step by step instructions for drawing shapes and shading. My students loved it and it took them into shading for 3D shapes like vases, castles, and many, many other things. Amazon offers it. I have followed you and your family for many years now and love your videos and you all as well. Thanks for allowing me to become part of your "family".
Your children have such great temperaments. I love that Belle is so nice to Maverick and watches him. She is a wonderful big sister. I love when Maverick says, "Bye".
Top of the day beautiful family! Goodness!! Y'all are an amazing team! Love the fact that people care enough to bring a "box" back to life and turn it into a beautiful home! Great job guys!! Hope y'all have an awesomely blessed day👏💪💖🙏💖
that looks great Doug & yeah you are really building a new mobile home and I know it's going to look fabulous when it's done you are so talented and I love watching you fix up/remodel/rebuild all the homes y'all ever lived in
People may look at it & call it trash, but when you are done it will be so, so much better built than a brand new one!! You do fantastic work!!! Thank you for my evening movie!! I always look forward to it!
Oh wow, that looks awesome with the door gone and new siding up. You worked very hard today; now you should enjoy your delicious meal. I love my Instapot which is 95% of the time used as a crockpot. As always be well, be blessed ❤
I too love the little insight into little happenings like meatloaf. I have a slow cooker and a hardly ever use it. I need to get it out. 🙂 Thanks for the inspiration
This project is coming along so nicely and I know you have great plans for the inside. I loved Maverick's concern at the end about his dad hurting himself with that heavy door. He is such a sweet boy. Thanks for sharing your family with us as well as your remodel/rebuild projects. I am so happy your lunch wasn't ruined!
I really like watching you guys! You have great work ethic and I appreciate you explaining the building process well and interestingly for non- professionals like me. What are you planning to do for the exterior of the mobile home? i.e. pressure washing, painting, decorative siding or anything? Keep up the good work 😊
Doug and Ashley you work so amazing well together, Ashley has to really enjoy living in a warm climate. Florida sunshine is the best, I have lived here 60 years coming from Chicago, Illinois when I was 12!! This project is looking so good ❤❤
I love these updates you are doing. Every thing looks awesome. I was thinking after I saw your lunch, I don’t remember the reveal of your kitchen. Maybe you haven’t yet.
Maybe it's my misconception, but the front right tire on the bus looks low. Maybe it's just the way it's parked in the dirt and sunken down? This trailer project is pretty exciting. I look forward to the results. There are so many details in every decision. I find it so interesting.
Doug, when they are making the frames for the mobile homes they should use corner brackets to attach the vertical timbers to the horizontal timbers, that way it would make repairs so much easier.
I like the fun design shapes of the vintage mobile homes. I have a wish to have one from the 50's to restore, and use as a work space. Yellow & white would be too cute. I won't do it though bc someone would want to live in it. 😄 It's looking so good!! Gives an idea of how nice it will be when painted. 👍 ``
I was hoping to see some more dancing today, Doug. You have great rhythm. Maverick was very good too. Well that was a great job 👏 replacing the door with the new siding. It looks awesome. You guys are going full steam ahead on this project. Lunch looks amazing. I love meatloaf. Ashley, you are a superstar. Great offsider for Doug, and still manage to take such good care of the family.
Doug I love watching your videos. You make fixing up and remodeling so easy. Plus your work ethic I’d fantastic. Keep up the good work. Your family is so sweet too
I like the fact that you keep releasing new videos every few days. I lived in a mobile home for 4 years so I appreciate all the hard work you're doing. Great job!
It’s looking good guys! Can hardly wait for the actual rebuild! Uhmm…your lunch look good too! Made me hungry! Think I’m going to make some meatloaf & potatoes…haven’t had that for awhile.
With every board you screw in and every rotted part replaced in that mobile home I am more excited to see the changes you’re making and the repairs too.
Those mini gutters are terrible. I seems they are more for securing the roof and hiding the roof edge seam than for helping with water. That's definitely an area that could use some improvement.
Mmm meatloaf yum! One of my favourite meals. I love how you replace studs and sheeting like it's a kids jigsaw puzzle. Nicely done. That mobile home is gonna look so good!
Aww, little Maverick- “don’t hurt yourself “ 🥰. That was too sweet! Doug mentioned it felt like you’re building a mobile home.. YOU ARE! Practically from the foundation up. Great work as always 👏🏻
I so enjoy your videos. You provide a no nonsense approach to life’s challenges. You are just a “regular Joe” doing what you love to do, and making life better for your family, and the environment. Keep up the good and interesting work.

That's because trailers depreciate in value

Thank goodness the rot is gone. Can’t wait to see the new layout. So far so good! Hang in there! Rooting for you guys, you’re awesome!!

I'm getting spoiled seeing a video every day
Doug you do great work,but i want too give a shout out to Ash for behind the scenes,clean up ete etc.👏👏👏👏🔨🔨🔨🔨☘️🇮🇪
It sure was a mess around that old door. It's looking great now!
We were in 120mph micro blast in Northern Minnesota several years ago silos and hip roof barns went down but our 1980 Mobil home with those straps never moved
Ashley is a good site manager, hope your paying her well.❤
This made me giggle! Lol

After watching this project, I am more convinced than ever that you two aren’t afraid to tackle anything! This is a fun renovation to watch.
My father has a dozen Mobile Home Rentals . You do your repairs the right way , just like I do for him . Two thumbs up .
Removing and
closing that door
turned out nice.
Everything is
looking good on
the mobile home.
Great job Doug
and Ashley.
I love your skills and determination, you're the Man !

I bet your neighbors are glad you are making the old mobile look new again. Love watching you guys and look forward to the next one.
They probably don't even care, haha. Their homes need a lot of work as well.
@@diyfferent Once they see your mobile home when you finish, they might want to hire both of you to work on their homes.
When all is finished your going to have the best constructed home ever ❤❤❤❤❤
I love watching you guys fix the mobile home, really any repairs, God bless your family!
that looks great Doug & yeah you are really building a new mobile home and I know it's going to look fabulous when it's done you are so talented and I love watching you fix up/remodel/rebuild all the homes y'all ever lived in
Love when you post every day! No pressure though!!!!
Me, too.
Great job getting rid of that door!
People may look at it & call it trash, but when you are done it will be so, so much better built than a brand new one!! You do fantastic work!!! Thank you for my evening movie!! I always look forward to it!
You are making such organized progress!!! Fantastic!!! 🥰🎶❤️🙏🙏🙏🏡🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Now,...has entire area been treated for termites new meal from buildings fresh wood? Great job guys!
Oh wow, that looks awesome with the door gone and new siding up.
You worked very hard today; now you should enjoy your delicious meal. I love my Instapot which is 95% of the time used as a crockpot.
As always be well, be blessed ❤
Doug you made a special appearance in our most recent video
You guys are a breath of fresh air, with your calm narrative and dependability you make my day. Take care and God Bless you. ❤

"Don't hurt yourself, it's heavy". That was so precious. ❤
I would love to see some cooking with me videos .
Oh, by the way. That darlin boy and darlin girl are so blessed to be with mom and dad to see the work involved and to help when asked ❤
In the end you're going to have a better than factory home.
Awesome! Thanks Doug & Ashley, Belle and Maverick 🙂
That was really neat to watch how you took that door out and it doesn't even look like there was ever a door there Great job
I am surprised that there were no screws supporting that door! So thankful you guys were not injured! Stay safe.
I really like watching you guys! You have great work ethic and I appreciate you explaining the building process well and interestingly for non- professionals like me.
What are you planning to do for the exterior of the mobile home? i.e. pressure washing, painting, decorative siding or anything?
Keep up the good work 😊
They have mentioned previously that they plan to paint it.
Great job on repairs!
Looking forward to the rebuild.
Dinner looked delicious.
Doug and Ashley you work so amazing well together, Ashley has to really enjoy living in a warm climate. Florida sunshine is the best, I have lived here 60 years coming from Chicago, Illinois when I was 12!! This project is looking so good ❤❤
Yep, the warm climate is way better for me. I would never want to live in the north ever again. :) Thanks!
@@diyfferent ❤️☀️
Great video! Was so glad you showed your crock pot meal at the end! lol
They just don’t come any more genuinely sweet and kind as Maverick. What a kind soul he has.

It often looks that way, but it's inflated to the correct psi :)

I'm absolutely loving seeing yall back to back! I know it's hard work both the renovation and filming! Thank you guy for how amazing yall are!
I’m always so impressed with your attention to detail
Great job Doug and Ashley! I am so excited to see what comes next. Your work is always outstanding. 🙏💕🌴
Love watching
I love the extra bits that we get to see into your lives. I LOVE meatloaf…can’t wait to see your next video
I have watched your channel since early Michigan. You are both impressive
I’ve watched them since indana red and white trailer
The house looks much better with that door gone. I've learned so much from watching. I love my slow cooker too!
I like the fun design shapes of the vintage mobile homes.
I have a wish to have one from the 50's to restore, and use
as a work space. Yellow & white would be too cute.
I won't do it though bc someone would want to live in it. 😄
It's looking so good!! Gives an idea of how nice it will be

❤ Wonderful job sealing up that old door area.
YAY! That's one big project done. Can't wait to see how you lay this one out. Its going to be cool!
Bella is growing into a beautiful very tall little lady
Yes ... getting closer to the reveal of the proposed new floor plan. I'm anxious to see it, very curious.
Doug I love watching your videos. You make fixing up and remodeling so easy. Plus your work ethic I’d fantastic. Keep up the good work. Your family is so sweet too
Perfect timing, going to enjoy the process with a cup of coffee
Loving these restoration videos. Can't wait to see the end result.
Yay!I was not expecting a video two days in a row!, Love it. Great job as usual!
I like the fact that you keep releasing new videos every few days. I lived in a mobile home for 4 years so I appreciate all the hard work you're doing. Great job!
These videos never fail to satisfy! So great seeing this old home come back to life! Thanks so much for all your awesome content ❤️
That meatloaf looked yummy!
It sure is looking good. I didn’t realize how bad it was at the roof until you videoed the edge.
Meat and potatoes. I never see you eat and always worried if you have enough nutrients. I feel better now. I'm so glad the rot has been removed. ❤❤❤❤
It’s looking good guys! Can hardly wait for the actual rebuild!
Uhmm…your lunch look good too! Made me hungry! Think I’m going to make some meatloaf & potatoes…haven’t had that for awhile.
With every board you screw in and every rotted part replaced in that mobile home I am more excited to see the changes you’re making and the repairs too.
Your trailer is HUGE!! You could cut it into threes and make tiny homes. ❤️
Looks better and better everyday. I was wondering what was in the crockpot so I'm glad you showed it at the end and it looked really good.
MAGNIFICENT SKILLS FAMILY GOD BLESS
I think if these homes had a more substantial gutter system it would help immensely. The gutters aren't enough to handle the water shed.
Those mini gutters are terrible. I seems they are more for securing the roof and hiding the roof edge seam than for helping with water. That's definitely an area that could use some improvement.
Thanks for showing the anchor system. I always wondered about how that works
Each day your getting closer 😊
What door!? 😊 Lookin good y’all! So did the food!! Love y’all!
It’s different but I know you have a great plan for this mobile home. ☺️👏🏼💪👷🤩🏠
So much better without that door in that weird place.
“Looks like we’re building a mobile home.” lol…yep!
WOW, Doug that was a great balancing act getting that siding removed. It turned out looking great!
Doug please for the safety of your eyes wear protective glasses!
Mmm meatloaf yum! One of my favourite meals. I love how you replace studs and sheeting like it's a kids jigsaw puzzle. Nicely done. That mobile home is gonna look so good!
lunch looks so good. trailer with door gone new siding looks really nice.
Great work!
I agree with Maverick- don’t hurt yourself. 😊
I am thoroughly enjoying this build series. I like seeing the transformation
Amazing youre so far along already! The meat loaf looked delicious. 😋
Onother productive day! That meatloaf looks delicious. I'd be ready for a nice nap after having that! 😊
Love seeing quality work excited and looking forward to seeing what layouts you end up choosing.
Aww, little Maverick- “don’t hurt yourself “ 🥰. That was too sweet! Doug mentioned it felt like you’re building a mobile home.. YOU ARE! Practically from the foundation up. Great work as always 👏🏻
That has to be a relief not worried about any more rot...looking great !

Meat loaf is one of my favorites.
I so enjoy your videos. You provide a no nonsense approach to life’s challenges. You are just a “regular Joe” doing what you love to do, and making life better for your family, and the environment. Keep up the good and interesting work.
Good morning, y’all are doing awesome on the old mobile home !!!!
Turned out looking great. Dinner looks amazing after a hard day of work.
RVs and mobile homes were built similarly until the late 90s. Same siding , staples, similar gutters, windows.
I was so excited when I saw you had just posted new video.
Nice job. I bet once this mobile home is finished it's going to look beautiful.
