Help! More floor rot (after dealer repair)
Long story, but I'll try to be brief. We're the 2nd owners of a '07 Jayco 27BH. Purchased it when it was two seasons old and in good condition. We used it a fair bit the first few years, maybe 6-8 ...

Anyone ever dealt with something similar?

This is one corner I could pull back a little, it's located under the bunk at the back wall next to the bathroom wall. You can see the corner of the new plywood installed last year.
Another photo in the same spot, you can see the new green edge of the plywood that was replaced next to the very rotten stuff
I have dealt with slide floor rot and I corrected it myself to not occur again.
Seeing your 1st pic of the corner of new OSB next to total rot out wood sure points to that rot was never removed the 1st time.
There are certain things about OSB that are consistent in many cases.
It does take some time to rot apart like the 1st pic shows. My guess is 1 to 2 years plus. That is not 6 months old started rot. It is a lot older.
If that was a new leak since the floor was installed, then how did the water not infect the new floor? OSB will absorb water when wet unless you have a special high end treated version which may be unlikely.
I would ask the group who fixed it how can this happen? Listen for the answers and then make up your mind if they make any kind of sense and if you will let them touch your camper again. Get a 2nd opinion from someone how has no axe to grind.
I feel your pain. They where paid good money to totally correct this, they didn't.
Good luck
John
