Consumer Alerts on Unregulated Buildings: How Desert Mobile Home Services Can Help
In recent months, consumer alerts have been issued warning mobile homeowners about unregulated buildings and structures that fail to meet safety and compliance standards. The Arizona Department of Housing's Office of Manufactured Housing recently released a notice about the risks associated with unregulated mobile home additions, foundations, and repairs that do not comply with state building codes.
These alerts serve as an important reminder that mobile homeowners should only work with licensed and experienced professionals to ensure their homes remain safe, stable, and compliant. Desert Mobile Home Services is committed to helping homeowners navigate these challenges by offering expert foundation inspections, repairs, skirting services, and more.
What Are Unregulated Buildings?
Unregulated buildings refer to structures, additions, or repairs made without the proper permits, inspections, or adherence to state and federal safety codes. This can include:
DIY or unpermitted foundation work
Improperly installed mobile home additions
Non-compliant skirting, roofing, or anchoring systems
Uninspected electrical or plumbing modifications
These unregulated structures can pose serious safety risks, including:
Increased risk of structural collapse
Potential fire hazards from improper electrical work
Drainage and moisture problems that lead to mold or foundation damage
Legal and financial consequences, including fines or difficulty selling the home
