Then write Damp in box then onto the tt.fc section underneath. Maybe have help on there as plenty have written things about damp rotten floors etc.

Can you post on here or email me any pictures of the floor underneath .

Hi, it's not easy to get photos of the underside of the van (most of it's painted with a rubber solution too) but I've done my best... It appears that it has been (badly) repaired before with filler then sealed without removing the rotten wood! Here are a few photos for a flavour of the problem:

From inside:

Close up:

The same corner from outside:

Different corner:

Further along that corner:

Outside:

This continues around the whole van :( . Some corners are sodden and you can see where the board have rotted out then been painted with the rubber...

I really want to get this fixed up but don't quite know how to start!

Pants, no idea why the pictures aren't showing up! It usually works! I'll try to fix them later, have to go out now.

I got to it using this link  http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b115/trachelospermumphotos/002.jpg  note the [IMG] is missing at both ends .

I've now removed the entire interior of the front half of the van and can at least see what I'm dealing with. It's been repaired in the past but without dealing with the rot. Hopefully it'll stop raining soon so I can get the rest emptied and see how bad that half is.
