2007 Gulfsfream Conquest Floor problem
Hi, if this is in the wrong section I apologize. Got a new problem. What is the basic construction of the floor in my 2007 Conquest 6319 Class C. Got a spongy spot I can't ignore anymore :(. Whe...

I don't know about your MH, but we had a spongy spot on the floor of our 2006 HTT. It had an aluminum frame with not quite 16" centers, I think it was more like 14". On HTTs, the floors are designed as one piece and compression fit together for rigidity. Not sure if that is the same with Class C MHs or not. Under the vinyl flooring was a thin layer of luan glued to the Styrofoam that is snuggly fit between the framing and then another layer of luan under it.
When I repaired our floor, I pulled back all the vinyl as far as I could and peeled up all the totally rotted wood. Then pulled up the Styrofoam. The luan under it seemed mostly dry. It appeared it was wet at one time, but it wasn't rotted, so I left it. I put new Styrofoam between the framing and then put 1/8' oak plywood on top of that.
Below are photos of the damaged area and the start of the repair.
