Catherine, I would recommend looking in the yellow pages under contractors in your area. Your home is typical of that year. To enlarge the bedroom you may need to contact your local building dept. and see if there are any permits you might need.

Catherine, I have a 1970 Marlette single wide mobile home myself I recently remodled the home myself. It's easy and inexpensive to do and you can't really find the wall paneling they used in those days so what I did was replaced the paneling with gypsum drywall and plastered it myself. Since you want to enlarge a bedroom Marlette used to screw the walls to the ceiling,floor and the sidewalls so it's easy to bring the wall down. I hope you could do it yourself or a local contractor. Another thing is that Marlette always had a very clean name and was one of the proud builders in those days and to this day. Terry Yazzie, proud owner of a Marlette home in St. Michaels, Arizona
