This will be my fourth RV, two of which I had pretty much gutted and rebuilt.
No signs anywhere of a soft roof or walls. No staining anywhere either. I really do think now that the water was from down low "somewhere". Walls and roof are solid, no odor from the walls or roof (I'm allergic to a lot, I can tell), no visible mold and nothing I can see hiding behind joints or trim on the walls or roof.
I am thinking that it truly was a plumbing leak.
It is bone dry now and has been sitting outside (not level) for weeks in Florida. So I am thinking not a slide seal issue either. The slide floor and ceiling themselves appear solid and dry. No staining anywhere on the walls or roof near the "soft" area of the floor.
The floor underneath the slide (the ceiling of the storage area below) is solid. So whatever happened was apparently soaked up at the sub floor level in the living area.
I intend to expose the entire sub floor by removing all the tile and carpet. This includes the slides.
Anything else that you would recommend?
Thanks for the response,
