Water Damage & Delamination Repair

Water damage in an RV is rarely limited to where you first notice it. A stain on a ceiling panel or a soft spot in the floor is usually the visible endpoint of moisture that has been traveling through wall cavities, along seams, or down from a roof or window leak for months. We use moisture meters and physical probing alongside visual inspection to map how far damage actually extends before opening anything up, because guessing at the boundary of a repair leads to repeat problems.

Sidewall delamination, common on fiberglass-skinned coaches, happens when the bond between the outer skin and the underlying foam or wood substrate fails, often starting at a seam, window frame, or body panel seam where water first got in. A delaminated wall can look fine from a distance but feel soft or show slight waviness in the skin, and once delamination starts it does not reverse on its own, so the affected section needs to be opened, dried, and rebuilt.

We treat water damage repair as diagnostic work first: find the entry point and stop it, map the extent of the damage, then rebuild the affected structure with correctly rated materials, because rebuilding over an active leak source just restarts the same failure.
