Mobile home rehabs

[Natalie Kolodij]

Has anyone utilized unconventional aspects in their mobile home rehab since the area is so much smaller and uniquely laid out as compared to a normal SFH?

I've noticed that a lot of mobiles for sale here that say "remodel" really just mean new paint and flooring. 

What type of flooring do you normally utilize in your mobiles? Worth the cost for durability of laminate flooring- or do you go with carpet? Also- any one tried carpet squares? I like that I can install them myself- and just replace individual squares when they get damaged. 

Thanks!

@Natalie Kolodij For most homes, I use new carpet trying to stay very neutral. Regarding the kitchen and bathrooms, I either use sheet vinyl or laminate flooring. 

With used mobile homes, usually the flooring needs to be replaced and some subfloor repair work done (i.e. cut out old floor with soft spots usually particle board and replacing with plywood). 

Hope that helps!
