Understanding the Re-Leveling Process
Mobile and manufactured homes are built on a steel frame. During transportation, axles and wheels are attached to the bottom of this frame. Once the home is positioned at its permanent location, it is leveled using hydraulic jacks, and concrete blocks or steel piers are placed under the steel frame for support. In the Southwest United States, these homes typically rest on the ground rather than a concrete slab, as manufacturers do not require one. However, because the home sits directly on the earth, it will settle over time due to its weight.
​
Regardless of whether a home has skirting or is ground-set, the foundational setup remains the same. To maintain stability and prevent structural damage, all mobile and manufactured homes require periodic re-leveling. This process involves lifting the home with hydraulic jacks and adjusting or tightening the supports to restore proper balance.
Why Re-level Your Mobile Home?
Signs Your Mobile Home Needs Re-leveling
Some common indicators that your home may be out of level include:
-
Doors no​t latching or rubbing against the frame
-
Swinging doors
-
Buckling or bent skirting
-
Cracks in the walls or ceiling
-
A noticeable slope when walking inside the home
​
Addressing these signs early can prevent costly repairs. Waiting too long may require extensive lifting and re-leveling, which can be significantly more expensive than routine maintenance.
Complete Underhouse Inspection
A majority of mobile/manufactured homes have cuts and holes in the underside vapor barrier, insulation, and air-duct system from repairs, plumbing issues, animals, the original set-up, and poor design. This allows easy access for pests and unhealthy air to be drawn into the duct system and your home.
We check and report on the vapor barrier, insulation, air ducts, holes, critters, leaks, etc.
