Frequently asked questions
Should the ground under a Middleburg manufactured home be covered?
About two in five Middleburg homes are manufactured. Bare soil under a home gives up water into the enclosed space beneath it all summer, so the air around the belly and the cooled ducts is fed from the ground as well as from outdoors. A sheet of heavy plastic laid over the soil, with its seams overlapped, cuts off much of that moisture.
Does a drain field near a Middleburg manufactured home affect the space underneath?
It can. Some 2,096 homes in Middleburg have septic systems on record, and where a drain field lies close to the home on the same lot, the field and the soil under the floor share the same ground. In June, the wettest month, the field fills with rain and household water together, and the ground beneath the home stays wet with it, feeding damp air up toward the floor.
What should be checked under a Middleburg manufactured home after a repair?
Work beneath a home, on plumbing, ducts or the belly, often means crawling over the plastic sheet on the ground, and it can be torn or pushed aside. Every patch of bare soil left open gives water to the air under the floor through the humid months. Looking over the sheet once the work is done, and laying patches over any tears, keeps that ground covered.
