Manufactured Home Skirting Kits – How to Buy

Manufactured Home Skirting Kits – How to Buy

Feb 17, 2022

Manufactured Home Skirting Kits, Follow These Do’s and Don’ts When Purchasing!

Manufactured Home Skirting Kits

If you own a manufactured home, you’re likely required by local law to put skirting on it.  However, before you simply reach for the first mobile home skirting kits you can find, take advantage of these dos and don’ts.  They’ll help you make a good choice and give you more bang for your buck!

 

— DO pay close attention to how it’s made

All manufactured home skirting kits are not created equal.  Some are made with vinyl while others are made with aluminum or concrete.  There are brands that have special vents to even out airflow.  While others have a finish that’s designed to look like stacked stones. Still, more boast of being the best cold weather skirting product.

Bottom line — there’s a variety of options out there, so do some homework!  For example, learn about the durability of different materials (concrete skirting, vinyl, and aluminum) and additional expenses which may come up over time if the skirting material doesn’t hold up (rodent infestations, etc.) We think you’ll find concrete skirting is more effective and durable than vinyl or aluminum and will save you money in the end.  Also, understand how air circulates inside your crawl space, and thus, why a special vent would be important.  The more informed you are, the better-finished product you can purchase!

— DO buy your manufactured home skirting kits from a company that’s happy to help!

Some manufactured home skirting kit manufacturers only care about making money.  Once they’ve sold you a kit, they could care less if you struggle to install it.  Others intentionally make the instructions difficult to comprehend so that you give up and hire them (or their buddies) to install everything for you.

You can do better than that! 

A good manufacturer will be happy to help with your skirting even after your purchase has gone through.  Specifically, they’ll have an instruction manual that’s written in plain English, and they’ll post videos and other tips right on their website.  Sure, they’ll offer their own installation services, but they’ll also make it relatively easy for you to do the installation work yourself, instead of trying to get you to spend more money!

— DON’T take winter for granted

If you live in a place that gets a lot of snow and ice, you’re going to need a manufactured home skirting kits that can keep up with weather changes, extreme temperatures, and moisture.  Because of the way it’s constructed, it isn’t good to let a bunch of snow and ice pile up against ANY type of skirting, but some kits are better prepared to deal with nature’s wrath than others.

Before you buy anything, talk to the manufacturer about how their skirting is going to withstand winter.  If you don’t like the answer, look for another kit!

— DON’T forget about your other structures

Yes, it’s called “mobile home skirting“, but these kits can also be used to finish off your deck, above-ground pool, or hot tub. Skirting is also what to put around the bottom of a shed or the storage building you’ve got sitting in the backyard.  So, before you put away the calculator, add up the space these structures take up.  Odds are some mobile home skirting will make them look AND perform better!
