I cut new pieces of plywood and slid them back underneath the wall frame. I also relocated the toilet in the bathroom so that flooring sheet was replaced, as well.
ive replaced major sections of floor in two trailers(no wall damage)
its not difficult.
start by removing all of the appliances and cabinetry. some plumbing may have to be cut and rejoined later. upper cabinets can stay but its easier to wrestle large sheets of plywood in there if the're gone
remember the interior and exterior walls are built on top of the plywood floor you are replacing and if the subfloor is rotten under the walls it must be replaced
That's one of the really nice things about restoration, a guy can move things around so that the trailer better fits the owner's needs.
