    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    Yes, I was able to fix everything I believe. I replaced all four “wiper” gaskets on the sides of the slides (front and back), and found that the top gasket on the large slide was leaking and allowing rain water to get in when the slide was closed. I was able to get all damaged sub flooring...

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    Good thought, I wondered the same. I actually dropped the underbelly today under the front, below the pass through storage. It’s dry as a bone under there. All the rain we had this weekend, still dry as can be inside. I’ve inspected all plumbing lines and fittings and see nothing that would...

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    How did you figure out that it was the roof? Did you cut into the wall? It rained almost all day yesterday, hard at times. I checked it multiple times, and the floor was dry. I see a few areas that need caulking, but no areas that would let the water come in to cause the damage i have. I...

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    I have a stiff scraping blade that I’ve been using to dig out the wood. The short answer though is that I can’t get all of it out. Just have to dig out what I can, and dry the rest of it. And try to insert the new wood as far under the walls as I can get it

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    Thanks for the advice. The water heater is right next to the door, so I’ll check that out. It’s actually raining today; so I’m going to hang out in here and see if I can find any water coming in. It really is a shame though; how much better would our world be if everyone abided by the golden rule.

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    Thanks guys. I have multiple fans trying to dry it out as we speak. Sprayed termite spray in the front bay and haven’t seen them again. I saw about 6 or 8 of them, small ones crawling around on top of the osb in the front pass through bay only, but I don’t see where they have burrowed down...

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    I’ve yet to hook it up to water, but best I can tell I don’t see any evidence of leaks. The worst of the damage is along the side wall where it meets the floor; both in the back and front of the camper. And the floor being wet around where the slides come in.

    Wet and rotted floor on 2018 model

    Hey all, New to the forum. I just bought a 2018 Mallard M32. I picked it up a week ago; and I thought I had done a thorough inspection. I did note a small soft spot in the bathroom floor, but the seller said that his kids had allowed water to splash out of the shower. I also noticed some...
