rebuilding

I have a 9' slide floor that's damaged. Rig is a 2008 Jayco Melbourne 29D. Slide floor is apparently originally constructed as a vacuum bonded unit; metal frame with 1/4" luan plywood top & bottom with polystyrene sandwiched in between (pics below). Talking to a local tech given unable to do a...

Life got really crazy a few years ago and my poor van got....., well let's just say it was way down there on the list of to-dos. Small leak and the whole back of the kitchen was soggy. I have mostly fixed the leak, but the damage was done. I built the kitchen myself and I am NOT wood worker, so...

Direct Hit! You sunk my battleship! This happened while I was, ironically, on a camping vacation not with the camper. I received a call and a text message with the first picture below. The tree was 30" in diameter and looked perfectly healthy. Roots gave away and down it went. I have still have...

Hello everyone, I posted last august about a crash that my little 1990 casita went through and how we broke the frame during it and put a hole in the fiberglass. The hole isn't that big and I should be able to fic it myself. I currently have it in a shop and have some options that I need to...

While our 2015 Legacy KP was being stored this fall for a driveway project it suffered some water damage. Basically, rain snuck through the kitchen slides top-seal soaking the bedroom carpet and damaging the rear closet cabinetry and decorative valance over the dining room. The DR valance is...

My bus had "coin pattern" black rubber flooring so I picked out some nice LVP at Lowe's to install in its place only to discover that the entire wood subfloor under the original rubber flooring was rotted out. Spent the last 2 days ripping all the old wood subfloor out and cleaning it up...

Hi All, In my quest to make our 1970 Ambassador leakproof, I have encountered a few areas that have copious amounts of old silicone -- probably as a desperate attempt by the previous owner to keep water out. I have already removed the single-pane stack windows next to the entry door...

As far as I know, the toilet in my 1992 MH is original and has never been serviced. Looks to be a Dometic 510 with hand sprayer. The toilet never stays full of water. All of the water seeps past the ball valve within a few minutes. Now considering my options. I can rebuild or replace...

Hey Hopefully I can help with some of the problems some might have with their Travel Trailers. I say this as I find out some things that I am having trouble with. ImWired2

Hello Everybody! I am from southern NH and I bought a 2009 Thor Majestic 19G last year and I am now trying to put it back together myself. Long story short is that my ex bf took the back apart due to the rear window leaking and rot that encompassed the entire lower part. He also ripped out...

I need to replace, rebuild my radiator! Any suggestions? Don't want to break the bank! Is it cheaper to re-core? I have space to work on it, but I am 78.. might be a bigger job than I can handle..? Anyone that has done it welcome to comment! Thanks

I had to gut my 79 Sunline 12.5' trailer to replace the floor. What is a good resource to show a novice carpenter on how to rebuild the interior. Need basic instructions. I mean real basic!! I have all of the tools required, but not the skill to use them :(
