Vinyl skirting providers for manufactured homes

Vinyl Skirting providers install or repair vinyl perimeter enclosure systems around manufactured homes. Skirting is not the structural foundation, and it should not hide incomplete setup, utility, drainage, ventilation, access, or inspection work.

Use this page to understand the scope and questions. It is not a contractor recommendation, availability result, quote request, or approval.

What to look for

Two photographs, and the difference between them

Skirting: closed to animals, open to air

Skirting is not structural, but it decides what lives under the home and how damp the floor stays. The two homes below have the same skirting; one was installed and one was hung.

A manufactured home with white vinyl skirting running straight and tight to the ground, with vents spaced along the run.
Panels run straight and tight to the ground, with vents spaced along the run and a finished top rail. The crawl space is closed to animals and open to air.
A manufactured home with vinyl skirting panels buckled, pulled loose and missing, leaving openings into the crawl space.
Panels buckled, pulled loose and missing, with openings straight into the crawl space. Animals and wind-driven rain get in, and the floor above stays damp.

Masonry or vinyl: which does your county require?

Both are skirting. A masonry curtain wall is block laid in mortar under the whole perimeter, permanent and inspected like a foundation; vinyl is panels hung from the home's rim. Some counties accept either and some require masonry — your county's own rules say which, so ask before the home is set.

A block curtain wall being laid in mortar under the edge of a set doublewide, with blocks and a mortar tub on the ground.
Masonry: a block wall laid in mortar under the perimeter, on a footing. Permanent, needs a mason and a footing inspection, and is what some counties require.
A new singlewide manufactured home with tan vinyl skirting and vents, beside a gravel drive.
Vinyl: panels hung from the home's rim to the ground, with vents. Faster and less costly, comes off for access under the home, and is accepted where the county allows it.

Which one your county requires is on its own page: find your county.
