I am looking to have a go at repairing one side of our caravan which has got a spongy wall. Last year we resealed the complete outside.

Can anyone point us to any videos on the web, that show you how to go about doing this repair? I know I have seen one a while back, but can't seem to find it again.

Thanks in advance.

I was going to ask the same thing as I have just had the caravan serviced and a couple of damp patches were found in the washroom wall. The technician discovered about 5 tiny pinprick holes in the outside that must have let water in. The van had a cover on for the winter and I had taken it off a couple of days before the service. It must have been damp when I covered the van in Oct and it's got spongy over the winter. It's a 1995 ABI Sprinter so not worth paying a professional to fix but I'd like to fix it myself. I hope to get another couple of years use of the van.

Not sure if this site will be of any use to you.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
