A & W IMPROVEMENTS

Description of Work: Work was done on my dad's double wide mobile home. I had paid 2 individuals to take up the deteriorating particle board that had been wet at one time and was rotting, and put in new plywood. They had finished and, after paying over $1000.00, I walked on the floor and it still felt as if I would fall through. I had A&W give me a quote and they said the floor would all have to come out. The first two guys had told me the one bathroom was fine and they put flooring tiles down and I thought that the bathroom was finished. When I had hired A&W, it had been for new plywood in 2 bedrooms and one bathroom, and take Dad's horrible old tub out and put in a new shower stall. When they were working near the finished bath, they noticed that the floor rot had a pattern to it. They pulled out the washing machine and called me to come over and look. The bathtub literally had not much floor left under it, and I was told it was fine! A&W pulled the whole tub/shower unit out, and not only fixed the floor under it, but made it look beautiful by taking the old support wood out and putting new in. Considering how they built manufactured homes in the early 80's was no small feat! Do not hire regular contractors to fix any mobile, double wides or any sort of manufactured housing! The building standards are completely different. The first guys put nails in and they hit nothing. Wayne explained that the inch difference was different in mobile homes vs. regular built houses. I wish I knew this earlier! The floors are all down and I can jump on any floor in the house and it doesn't even so much as creek or budge or anything. I love it! And that price included the plywood. They put down the real thick stuff, too! I would recommend them to anyone.I told the Holly Village Mobile Home Park Office about telling others, "Do not be afraid to hire them," and they told me quite a few people had used them in the past and were satisfied. Learn what I learned. Never hire someone without asking around first.
