How to Estimate Mobile Home Water Damage

Checking the damage caused to a mobile home, two toilet supply lines busted. Phil is checking this for the homeowner and acting as the go between with the insurance company. This is their vacation home.

The owner actually fell through the floor. You want to be careful and walk on the floor joist. They should hold. Sorry about the camera. Clay's trying to stay ahead and not fall through the floor.

We already replaced some of the floor before the flood. The plywood subfloor stood up to the water, but they will need to do to flooring. The rest of the repairs have to wait until we can get the insurance company to come up on their numbers.

They head under the house to check how much damage to the underside of the floors.

Don't forget to include labor, any travel time for materials, especially when over an hour from a big supply store. A big part of having and running a repair business like this is material costs, shortages and keeping all that in mind when you bid the job.
