Rotting floor in our 2008 Jayflight 26BH
My wife and I have discovered the floor is rotting in our 2008 Jayco Jayflight 26BH in the front bedroom below the side windows on either side of the queen bed. The floor is soft right under the wind...

Were going through this right now too. 3 yr old summerland, leak from top corner going unoticed. We have only had it a year. Ended up taking the whole front cap off, taking the bottom 3 set of siding off the slide side. It was so disheartning to pay that much for a camper to have to work on. Insurance denied claim do to damage over long term...About to get it back togeher. Had to replace all wood on front end and slide side to the window. It is alot of work but ours is stick and tin..Nothing to it, just cut measure replace. It is a god send that we picked this kind, maybe lower end but easy to fix..
If I were you I would start taking some of the siding off from the bottom and seeing the extent to the damage, the frame rails are probably rotted, there is a 2x2 that the wall nails too that is probably rotted. This all has to get replaced..plus the insulation that is probably moldy too.
Not trying to scare you but it is always bigger than what it seems. Water runs.. when it gets in it will rot that immediate area but then run to another area depending on how the camper is tilted...
