After a service I was told that I had a leak/crack on my offside awning
Rail, stopped the leak problem but I was wondering if the wall panel will dry out and harden on its own or will it have to be cut out and replaced it is not a huge area about one square metre?    
The damp meter reading in this area was 30 on the report

I wish tere was a caravan doctor in the Glasgow area as I have e-mailed a couple of companies to ask them if they would quote for the repairs but they never bothered coming back to me! : (

Cheers. Michael, we have a 2005 Bailey pageant do you know if it is wallboards or wallpaper? Thinking of tackling it with help from a joiner friend? Any advice would be welcome
