Soft floors

I have a 2010 Salem 26 BH XLITE this spring when I opened it up parts of the floor are "soft" Does this mean what I think it means? I'm at least 2 feet of the ground, I do boondock but it's a fairly dry area. If I have to replace parts of the floor is this something I should attempt or a dealer? Sounds to me like a nasty EXPENSIVE job!

If you have soft spots it may be an indication of a water leak. Possibly the roof leaking into the walls and making its way to the floor. I would look for and repair the culprit before making repairs to the floor.
I don't remember the name but there is a product online, runs about $100 for a 5 gallon bucket. You basically brush or pour it on the soft spot and it hardens the damaged floor. Maybe someone can chime in with more info. Or go to RV.vet. lots of info there.
