Signs to look for
When to call us for mobile home water damage
For a professional recovery, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
A batten strip lifting or a wall seam opening
Through an organized response, panel walls are joined with battens over the seams instead of taped and painted like drywall.
A wall panel bowing outward or feeling soft at the bottom
As each stage is completed, vinyl covered gypsum panel walls sit directly on the decking, so they wick water upward from the floor.
Staining along the marriage line of a double wide
For a professional recovery, the seam where two sections join is the most common water entry point on a multi section home.
Rings or sagging around a ceiling seam or roof vent
With a durable result in mind, older homes with low slope metal roofs pond water at seams, vents and the edges.
The floor around the utility closet is discolored
For a professional recovery, the furnace and water heater usually share one interior closet sitting directly on the decking.
What happens
How we handle mobile home water damage
Our professional recovery team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.
A construction read before any equipment comes off the truck
Through an organized response, we note the home's age, whether it is a single wide or a double wide, and what the deck and the walls are actually made of.
An honest decking decision on day one
With a durable result in mind, particleboard decking that has swelled or lost its bond does not come back, and drying it longer will not change that.
Wall panels handled as panels, not as drywall
Through an organized response, panel walls come apart at the battens and the bottom course, which lets us dry the wall cavity without wrecking the whole room.
Extraction sized for narrow doors and light floors
With a durable result in mind, portable extractors and compact submersible pumps come through a 30 inch doorway and up a set of steps.
Electrical service checked before equipment goes in
For a professional recovery, many manufactured homes run a 100 amp service, which limits how much drying equipment the home can actually carry.
Floor ducts and the crossover duct checked
As each stage is completed, water that reaches an in floor supply duct sits there and gets blown through every room.

What the deck is made of
With a durable result in mind, particleboard decking that has swelled has to be replaced, and that is labor plus material plus flooring above it.How much of the home is wet
Through an organized response, pricing follows affected square footage.Single section or multi section
Through an organized response, a double wide is roughly twice the area and adds the marriage line as both a leak path and a drying boundary.How clean the water was
Through an organized response, supply line water is the least damaging case and saves the most material.Wall panel count
Through an organized response, panel replacement is priced by area and by how many batten lines have to be opened.Duct involvement
As each stage is completed, clearing and drying in floor ducts is straightforward.
Why timing matters
What can happen when the area stays wet
As each stage is completed, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.
Particleboard decking does not come back
Through an organized response, once the panel swells and its bond fails, it stays swollen and weak no matter how long you dry it.
Panel walls hold moisture behind a sealed face
As each stage is completed, the vinyl film on these panels is effectively a vapor barrier on the room side, so moisture cannot escape toward the air you are drying.
The whole home reaches high humidity, not just the wet room
For a professional recovery, small air volume means moisture saturates every room within hours, so there is no comfortable dry side to retreat to.
Water in the floor ducts recirculates through every room
Through an organized response, standing water inside a supply duct or the crossover duct gets pushed through the home each time the system runs.
Helpful service information
What to know about mobile home water damage
Through an organized response, start with the short explanation. As each stage is completed, open a card if you want a little more detail.
What is happening inside the property
For a professional recovery, floors are typically decked in particleboard over relatively shallow floor joists, glued and stapled as a system.
Read the explanation
With a durable result in mind, manufactured homes are built to the federal HUD Code, which produces a very different set of materials from a site built house.
How the next step is decided
As each stage is completed, that film behaves like a vapor barrier on the room side, so moisture in the gypsum core cannot escape toward the dry air you are creating in the room.
Read the explanation
For a professional recovery, the vinyl face on a panel wall is the detail that catches inexperienced crews.
What may change the work
For a professional recovery, a single section home holds a fraction of the air a two story house does, so evaporating water pushes relative humidity up very quickly and evaporation then stalls.

For a professional recovery, air volume is the quiet variable in a home this size. For a professional recovery, a single section home holds a fraction of the air a two story house does, so evaporating water pushes relative humidity up very quickly and evaporation then stalls.

Questions about mobile home water damage
Can a soft floor in a mobile home be dried instead of replaced?
As each stage is completed, it depends entirely on the deck material. For a professional recovery, most manufactured homes use particleboard decking, and once it has swelled or lost its bond it does not recover, so those sections come out.
How much does mobile home water damage repair cost?
With a durable result in mind, as a national estimate, one wet room with a few days of drying commonly runs $900 to $2,500.
Why are manufactured homes different from regular houses for water damage?
For a professional recovery, three reasons. With a durable result in mind, the decking is often particleboard rather than plywood, and the walls are vinyl faced gypsum panels joined with battens rather than taped drywall.
Can the wall panels be saved?
Through an organized response, the bottom few inches are usually the problem, because panels sit on the deck and wick water upward.
What about the water under my home in the belly?
With a durable result in mind, that is a separate professional plan from the work inside your home, and our under house water removal page covers it in full.
How long does a manufactured home take to dry?
Through an organized response, extraction usually finishes in one to three hours. For a professional recovery, drying then takes about three to five days for a typical loss, sometimes less because there is less material.
Do you check the floor ducts?
Through an organized response, yes, and it is one of the most commonly missed steps. Through an organized response, supply ducts run inside the floor and the crossover duct links the sections on a double wide, so water sits in them and gets blown through the home.
