Other Mobile Home Skirting Kits You Can Choose From

By Jocelyn Davidson


There are many people who prefer to live in a house that is mobile and can easily be moved from one place to another. When you have no family yet and you want to live alone this is the perfect choice for a home. It is cheap and easy to maintain. There will be no need for major cleanups. But despite the smaller area that you this kind of house might have, it can still provide comfort.

The usual body of a mobile home is a trailer that is used to transport things across the country. Even if it is just a mobile home, you still have to do your best so that it would look as comfortable and as beautiful as it could be. Mobile home skirting kits are one of the best ways to add that much needed flare in your abode. Aside from that, it can also help protect your house, especially your plumbing system.

Sometimes, a mobile house is placed directly on the ground. But there are others who use blocks to elevate the house thus, leaving a space underneath it. To keep animals and other elements from entering the empty space, skirts are put up underneath it.

Vinyl is the usual covering used by many. Many people use it because it is durable and not very expensive. But it can be very bland to look at. And if you are really aiming for a beautiful home, you are going to have to be more creative than that.

You have decided that you want to have another material to use for skirting, you need to be prepared first. Take the measurement of the height and the width of the space that should be covered. It is advised that you should add two inches to the height of the actual skirt as allowance.

You also need to take precautionary measures for the pipes underneath the house. No matter how properly closed the skirting is, pipes will still freeze. You need to properly wrap it with insulations. You should also not forget to make vents when skirting. You do not want to have problems when it comes to moisture condensation so vents are always a must. It would also be good to have access doors with your skirtings.

The first alternative that you can consider is tin. Painted anodized tin would look perfect for the mobile home. This material is durable and is also cheap. Anodized tin is far better than the simple one because the paint would stick longer, preventing it from getting textured if ever the tint will wear off. Another tin option is galvanized tin that is usually used for roofing. You can also use it for skirting.

There are others who prefer durability and quality above anything else. The perfect option would be cider bricks. Aside from the fact that they can withstand any weather, they also give and added insulation for the pipes. But installing these materials can also take time. So you need to free up your schedule.

Pickets are not only used for fencing anymore. They can also be a skirting material that is affordable and would not take a long time to install. They are dainty and perfect for those who want to add beauty to their homes. Most pickets are made from wood that is resistant to harsh weather.
