Hi
Just an update on a damp problem that i have had on a 1994 swift royale motorhome that i bought 2 years ago
if someone tells you that running a bead of sealant all around the joints of your motorhome will reseal and then it will dry out-take it with a pinch of salt.it may work in some cases but mine has not.
i took this advice approx 18 months ago,had it done and have now got an expensive repair to put things right.
The dilema i had when motorhome was inspected properly yesterday
1. Keep ignoring problem Never going to get better
2 sell it on at greatly reduced price cos of the damp
3 Bite the bullet and pay up cos apart fom this it is a good van Mechanically etc
Have decided to pay up
One of the things i would definitely do different
when you buy a second hand motorhome get a habitation check done before you buy.
i had tapped all round boards sounded ok ,trouble is one of the boards had another board stuck over it to hide the sponginess.Another thing pointed out to me yesterday that one of the boards was a slighty different shade with a different trim meaning a repair had been attempted before and not worked
some of the timbers are so wet they would never dry out hopefully gonna get job done properly now.
Couple of things that are making me feel a little better.My local garage have already said its mechanically sound,and when i bought it i got it down a couple of grand (i now know why).
