How to check for damp
Discovering damp in your motorhome shouldn’t be overly concerning, especially if it’s caught early.
If you notice any signs of damp, it’s crucial to act quickly. Tracing the source of a leak or damage that’s causing the damp can be challenging. This is because water can travel both horizontally and vertically within motorhomes, and damp can even rise from below.
The most common indicator of damp is a distinctive smell, similar to a wet towel left out for too long, often found in cupboards. Other signs include pimples on the walls or ceiling, discoloration, and a soft texture when pressed. Recognizing these signs early can help prevent more serious damage.
The process to repair damp
Externally, we begin by removing any old sealant and parts to thoroughly inspect the affected area. After repairing any identified damage, we replace the parts and reseal everything to a high, professional standard, ensuring lasting protection.
Internally, we clear out obstructive elements such as boards or shower plastics to access the damp areas effectively. Any furniture that needs to be removed will be handled with the utmost care and stored safely while we work. We then install new timber framing, insulation, and wall boards, using high-quality glue for a durable finish.
Finishing Touches: Once repairs are complete, we provide a complimentary cleaning of your motorhome, both inside and out, leaving it refreshed and ready for your next adventure.
