hi everyone, i have been reading with interest how all you clever people out there have rebuilt their vans after damp had set in and well done to all of you. my hubby and i are just starting ours and are following all the good advice on here and we are pretty sure we know what we are doing until we come to redecorating when the wall is rebuilt. what is the best advice you can give us, a caravan has a plastic covering on the walls but i dont even know if you can buy it, if not what would be best? i will take every bit of advice on board and go with the majority.

thanks everyone

Gillian

Hi Gillian , you can buy the caravan wallboards from here Olearys or Mardons .
Other than that you could use wallpaper , i think a few people on here have done that with good results .
