Hi all im new to the group and I must say I'm really impressed how good and helpful it is,

The prob is I done all my work a week ago (a week before finding this site),

I brought this caravan knowing it had damp and though I'd buy it to use as a tester as newer caravans are out of my price range and the only way I'll afford one is by buying that needs work,

Basically it was totally rotten on the nsf at the bottom, the floor was rotten and the side was coming away from the floor

I put a new floor down replaced the wood at the bottom and put new ply board up, at the time I didn't realise I could get special board for caravans which matched (so I painted the whole caravan lol),

When my laptops up and running I'll put a photo bucket link up, but like I say I wish I see this site first

Nice job, you probably saved a fair bit of cash by using plain board. The faced caravan board would have been higher cost.
