As title says i have noticed the floor near one end of the camper is spongy when walking on it, I assume it has been damp at some point although feels completely dry now.
Anyone had any experience of this, recommendations to either repair/replace/strengthen?
Just had a read around and noticed people refer to "delamination" near sink/cooker or door usually, well this is in between sink and wardrobe so could well be that.
Will buy one of those kits from ebay and give it a bash.
Hi ejjerome, i will be following the following process (but buying a ready made kit), the pictures might be useful for you to have a bash at your own:-

Hi All,

Any advice appreciated!
Had a Tardis years ago, had the same problem.
The quickest and easiest fix is to wedge a length of timber under the floor.
The chassis (if I remember correctly) is 'C' shaped, which enabled a length od timber (might have been 3" x 3") to be inserted btween the front tapering chassis members, knocked tight with a hammer, and then secured with a coachbolt.
I can recall doing that fix - and it worked well.
BTW - if the floor has gone, it might pay to take a look inside the door. You might wll find that the timber surrounding the lock has also rotted.
Again, a relatively easy fix (the door is hollow) - but a testament to Conway's reluctance to seal things properly.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
