    When you're done you'll have a "new" mobile home for the fraction of the price of a recently manufactured one. Thumbs up.

    I know what to say, Ashley ~ you are amazing to watch during the roofing process!! You stand, you walk, you help with supplies, and give encouragement/suggestions to Doug. Doug has a jewel in a wife...I can tell he knows it because he always has a conversation with you on the process. You make for an awesome team.

    I bet that finishing your roof was a load off of your mind, happy for you. It's always a relief to finish any project. Great video.😊

    I was just telling my husband that even tho there is still so much left to be done, you guys have come an awful long ways already. The trees, mess, rickety porches etc. Looks great and so much to be proud of. Love each and every episode! Hi Belle and Maverick! xo❤

    You must be so relieved and happy that you got the roof done! It looks wonderful and I'm so looking forward to seeing the paint color that you chose for the outside of the home! Have a great weekend, family!

    Doug's total surprise when it didn't fit! We NEVER hear that. I on the other hand am never surprised when something doesn't fit when I cut something.

      Those mobiles have a 6 to 12 inch overhang on each end. Good job and be glad the home did not twist or shift when you removed the interior.

    @pama.6410 5 месяцев назад +6

    That must feel terrific!!! Almost done! In the sped up version of the roof going in, I thought Ashley must be pointing some things out to you as you worked and then I realized she was handing you the nails/screws. 😂 Didn't think you needed that much instruction.... Windows done, subfloor done, trusses done, siding replacement done, wiring done, roof done!!!!! And there is probably more that I missed. Woohoo!!!! Way to go!!!

    When you showed the neighbors getting the new mobile home delivered I thought your rebuild would be much better quality and construction than the new one. This is from a former mobile home buyer.
    You all do an excellent job on all of your building! You must be so relieved to get the roof finished!👋🏻👍🏻❤

    I live in East Tennessee and the eclipse was a total bust here . I went outside when it was supposed to be the peak time and it was so cloudy that I couldn’t even find where the Sun was supposed to be . We had an excellent view of the 2017 eclipse with 4 minutes of totality. It was very cool but I think that I would be kinda disappointed if I had traveled several hundreds of miles to maybe get a glimpse .

    @smarthome2660 5 месяцев назад +4

    Wow yall, just wow. It really paid off all the time it took you to repair & replace the bad siding, and all of the work to make the roof flat. Once it is painted it will look like a brand new home.

    Doug totally did that on purpose. Just to make the rest of us feel better about ourselves. 😄
    We also used a welders helmet to view the Eclipse. Worked great.

    Oh, good. Doug is back in green and all is right with the world!
    Their ability to work together and to learn is wonderful - the second half of the roof won't even take half-as-long as the first side.

    Sorry it rained at the wrong time. It’s great that you got the roof finished now, though. You had a better run with the second half of the roof. It looks great. 😊😊😊

  • @pinkmosquito22
    @pinkmosquito22 5 месяцев назад +2

    Wow, wow, wow!! Massive progress!! I'm guessing completing the other side _was_ a huge advantage for being able to make this much progress on this side!
    It stinks that it downpoured before you could get the roof closed up. That's always the worst!
    The roof looks great now, but once those final trim pieces are up, she is going to really shine!! 🤩

  • @iridescentchick3133

    Can I take this opportunity to give a shout out to Ashley? In my head I always equate Doug as having a PHD in home building but I also think that Ashley has at minimum a Master’s degree in apprenticeship. Way to go, girl!👏👏👏👏

    • @XtremeChiliPepper
      @XtremeChiliPepper 5 месяцев назад

      Huh? She hands him screws ... and films. Could just set up a stand for the phone/camera, and actually have two people doing the project. They had a video a while back where they actually talked about things. Otherwise, Doug does almost all the work.

    Nice job! My wife and I really enjoy seeing your progress. You are hard workers. It's good to see people that are willing to work hard to make something good for themselves. :-) I enjoyed doing my own DIY back in the day. I did a lot of things myself, so I really appreciate what you do and know how much work some of these things can be. :-) My wife and I moved to central FL, Nature Coast 10 years ago and we love the sunshine.

    Every time you get a new “toy”, I think how much easier or more professional it makes your work. I think “game changer”. But that van is probably the best bang for your buck. It has served you so well in many circumstances. You kids have made some fantastic choices/decisions.
