Crystal Springs Resort is the premier world-class golf destination in the Northeast with six championship caliber courses within a five-mile radius.
The owneer of the park requires all flat roof mobile homes to have a peaked roof put on within a certain time period. They do not want a floating roof with the 4x4's going down to the ground.
This weekend I opened a small section of the roof so I could try to minimize the number of surprises when I start the project. Here is what I found: The mobile has vaulted ceilings, and it has no trusses - it is single 2x6 rafters spanning 14ft 4 inches, spaced on 24 inch centers. The pitch is 3/12. The roof sheeting attaches to the top of the 2x6, and the sheetrock attaches to the bottom.... The baffling point is that I can see significant sag and wave in the roof, but when you look inside the rooms, it is not evident, nor does the sheetrock show significant damage or cracking....
