We live in a mobile home, and I notice my bed was at an angle. I be curious why, so I looked at the carpet. I a moment ago thought it was a moment or two hole, but the problem is much worse. My grandma and I cut the carpet, and this is what we see.

It doesn't look close to it, but this hole is deep. When I look contained by, I can see pipes and insulation. How can we repair this? Thanks.
Answers: your floor is made of partical board
under that floor you will find floor joist (usually set on 16 inch centers)
to fix the floor you will have to cut the partical board hindmost to the joists later nail surrounded by a couple pieces of 2x4 along both joist
then cut a clean piece of plywood to the size of the hole you cut and nail it contained by place
the bad report is that if your floor has broken within one place it will break out in several more fatefully
personally i would verbs up the carpet and install a unmarked 3/4 inch plywood floor right over the top of the partical board wall to wall to avoid any further breaks in that room
ew. nickname a carpenter and cover it up until he/she gets at hand to prevent smells and animals and all. thats ur best bet.
