Due to the broken window and using gaffer tape at 1am, we hadn't realised there were a few gaps. 2 months later when we opened the caravan up we found the front wall under the window and one of the double seats and woodwork wet and mouldy. I have arranged for my wonderful mum to sew me some new seat covers. Where is a cheap place for good quality foam. Is it worth getting a memory foam topper to it? Do you know how I replace the wall under the window (I checked ebay and found something called 'wallboarding') is this the right stuff and how easy is it to fit? Also, how do I remove the mould from the wood apart from mould and mildew spray giving it a scrub and leaving it to dry out (I had a hairdryer on it). It will be where I am sleeping and asthma dictates that I get it right! Please please help!! Luv Sue x

Oh! Sue I am sorry,

 

I have seen man that helps everyone he can and has a lot of people with him. There on here somwhere.

Called THE WIZARD I am sure he will know the anser or know where to get the answer to the wall.

You could do a seach for the wizard I did try for condensation for you but got nowhere yet I have seen it somewhere on site. Keep checking the site as I will for you. Did you check the email Notify me of replies box. I off to the search

Hi geoff and emmy. Which foam do you recommend? Do you think I should get a memory foam topper or am I just wasting my money?
