YouTube algorithm has figured out I will watch literally anything. Thank you for the video. I don't have a manufactured home and I'm terrible at drywall repairs yet here I am.

[trilbyarnold]

Really helpful. I've lived with those silly strips for 27 years. I hate them. This video encourages me to know that even at age 80, this lady can do it. Thank You!!

[gregt]

There’s so much negative stigma associated with owning a trailer home. But with the tiny home movement this is a fantastic way to upgrade your house into a home!

[thypandrew]

Thank you for showing me how deep of a hole I’ve dug myself

[annemoreno]

This is FANTASTIC I have lived in my home for over 20 years and despise them! It never occurred to me that I could get rid of them! You're the best for doing these videos! A huge Thank you from Texas!

[sassyvixen]

I thought I was the only one whose Manufactured Home was held together with a million staples per square inch. I stare at those dang wooden strips every day and hate them. And where there are none, it looks like somebody tried (and failed) to cover the seams with tape and mud, and now they're all cracked. Your advice makes so much sense to a novice like me. Thank you, thank you!

I have drywalled many maufactured homes. Here are a few hints from my experiences.

Corners
ceiling to wall joints and wall to wall joints
If the vinyl wall corner joints are tight I prefer to caulk the corners with good painters caulk. Quick and smooth.
If the corners gaps are large then paper tape them.
If the wall to ceiling joints are large. I have flat taped the wall gap with hot mud and paper tape. only on the wall not onto into the popcorn ceiling, let it dry then caulked the corners tight into the popcorn or heavy texture.

On flat joints
Test your mud you are using for good adhesive action. After “setting” in all nails, staples, and screws.
I prefer to paint walls with kills or a good primer then start your mudding. I have not had any adhesion problems then.

On texturing
I prefer to orange peal texture eather heavy or lighter. if you try to knock down on these walls the unlevel walls will give inconsistent look. If you are wanting a more knock down look then loosen up the texture mud so it hits and flattens more.

Thanks for the help!!! My husband and I just bought a modular, he is pretty handy (electrician is his day job! But he can do most things needed around the house!) however he is used to regular drywall, never had to worry about the seams.. and this was a huge help!! Also helps to paint the walls whatever color we want! And not worry about those seams every few feet or so! It’ll be a project but one that we have more “know how” about now. I saved the video so I imagine we will be watching it a few more times! He said “save that!! That’s exactly what I need!” Thanks again!

[notmaureen]

Hey, I'm a pro painter and I just found your channel and I gotta say, what a resource! I mud probably every day at work but I'm not a drywaller so you're giving me a wealth of info!

[skytombs]

Your work is so clean, and you make it look so easy. That's how I know you're a real professional.

[micmike]

I've painted and repaired for more than 25 years and wanted to say, yup you pretty much got it right! Nice explanation, thanks

[scottmcgrath]

I have been a fixer upper on just about every project a house could give me. We recently bought a 3/2 Manufactured Home 15 minutes away from Perdido Key Florida. I have learned many of the light to middle skills required on my own prior to youtube. Most of those skills came with several failures before actually "getting it right". In the last 15 years, youtube has assisted me tremendously on any question I ever had. But I must say, you have been the best teacher of drywall I have ever seen. Your skills and knowledge are amazing. You not only show how to do it but also how not to do it! I am so sorry that you are not feeling 100%. I wish I had subscribed years ago! Thank you for everything you do. I truly appreciate your assistance with my projects! - Scott

[SarahAtTheRugerRanch]

You are a natural teacher and amazing demonstrator!! Where were you 10 years ago when I was tearing apart my manufactured home?! 😂 I did all the “donts” but now I know exactly what caused the shiny spots, lumpy walls, and vertical cracks. I’m ready to take another stab at it with the proper tools and I’m feeling inspired. Thank you!

[Morgorn]

This is PERFECT. I live in a manufactured home with taped & textured walls; love it! However, my last manufactured home had the strips, and I hated them. I'm planning on moving after I retire, and if I find a manufactured home, that is in the right location, with the right amount of room at the right price--but it has the strips on the walls--now I know how I can get rid of them. Thank you!

[billlynch]

I helped my buddy do this to a manufactured home a few years back. We skim- coated the whole place because of imperfections in the original finish. We then applied a knock-down finish. After primer and paint, it came out beautiful. Thanks for the tips

[beckypage]

I’ll be honest; I’m going to have to watch this video over a couple of times, but you have shown me where I’ve screwed on a couple things and how to fix them, plus what it’s going to take to do my vinyl drywalls properly.
Thank you so much.

[ashleynevins]

Thanks for giving us the years of knowledge that you worked so hard for.

[michael-]

Great knowledge. Thanks for sharing as I was a maintenance technician for a manufactured home community. The strip is called “BATTON STRIP”. Yes if you lose one due to whatever the reason you can pull one from the closet and put it in place of the missing one. Matching or painting generally requires painting that wall as most times it won’t match the existing ones.
I personally like the smooth walls it makes the walls look like a site built home.
I enjoy your videos as they are loaded with knowledge and advice. Hope your doing well as I know you retired. Best to you…

I did my double wide however the drywall was glued to the studs with an average 1/2” gap between the panels, the rock was covered with a vinyl type wrap, something I did was put a urethane sealant joint in the gap and apply primer to the walls before tape & mud, I did my walk texture by hand with a stipple brush and broad knife, the sealant joint will prevent future cracking in your tape joint, the finished product looks high end good, manufactured homes are really built cheap so if you scrape and slick your ceilings and replace the trim with wood and upgrade most everything you can really have something nice, by the way I rode out hurricane Ivan in my manufactured home one mile from the Gulf of Mexico in Perdido Key and came out better than most folks
