My sister and her husband payed good money for a caravan that they new had damp problems. I said NO!! but they figured that it would be a good winter project and ready for this year. Well they came along with us to Rudding Park, Harrogate for a few days in March, the weather was OK and only got a bit damp. When it came to leaving they found that the front and rear of the caravan was wet, not damp, but wet. The work they did over the winter trying to damp proof the caravan had not worked.

They seem ready to through more money at it but I think it's all in vain, the hole thing looks rotton to me and I have told them to cut their loses and sell it on for spairs or somthing. If you have put yourself in the same situation and tryed floging a dead horse or damp caravan then let them know. You can drop them an email by clicking HERE

Thanks for your time........

sorry to hear about their damp/wet        i too have a van that is damp although i never knew anything until i went to remove the curtains   the van was bought from an ex ukcampsite member  i say ex as they not posted since i got the van so im wondering if they knew.   still my fault i should have got a damp meter 

im sure your sis will learn by her mistakes eventually     she will need to scrap that van and get another.

Damp is not the end of the world , I have just finished my caravan renovation and boy did i have damp. if your sister would like to visit My Website they can get some idea's on how to combat it.
