Last week I fixed an issue with the step below my camper door. It had a lot of give in it when you stepped on it. I found I had some rot due to a crack in the door frame.
After I fixed this, I found that under all the linoleum in the camper, it was sopping wet.
I THINK the dealer I bought it from last year fixed a roof leak but didn't fix the water infiltration.
I put a box fan and a dehumidifier out there and dried it out.
We've got some really heavy rain this past week and I didn't see any new water, which leads to my suspicion that its been fixed already and this water has just been sitting there with no way out.
Luckily, no real rot. I soaked it down with bleach, just to kill any potential spores.
I've been getting about a gallon a day out of the dehumidifier.
Yesterday I put down louan down, on top of the old louan, just to help strengthen things up. I also put liquid nail between the layer, and then screwed them together with 1/2" wood screws.
I got a good deal on carpet tiles at Menards. $1.99 for 20"x20" tiles. Low nap. Very heavy duty. I used double sided carpet tape beneath the tiles. I was going to use a carpet adhesive, but it said it wasn't freeze/thaw safe.
Tomorrow I'll be putting in quarter round and metal transition strips for the doors.
