How to Relevel a Modular Home
- 1). Remove all skirting around the modular home for full access underneath. Loosen all tie-down straps with an adjustable wrench about halfway.
- 2). Place a 4-foot level horizontally in the center of the home where two sections meet. Observe the level to determine which support footing needs to rise up to become level. If the bubble in the level is on the right side, the right side needs to raise up to level this area.
- 3). Place a house jack underneath the trailer next to the supports that need raising. Jack the frame up slightly above the supports. Insert wood shims into the raised space by hammering them in. Place concrete pads in large spaces. Lower the house jack and recheck the level.
- 4). Move the level to the next room on the right. Level this area in the same manner. Work to the right side of this section and then from the center to the left side of this section.
- 5). Place the level horizontally in the center of the next section of the modular home. Level the home from the center to the right and then from the center to the left.
- 6). Place the level vertically in the first then the second section of the home to level it from front to back. Repeat this procedure for the third section of a triple wide home.
- 7). Tighten the tie downs in a clockwise direction and replace the skirting.
