Class C RV Cab Over Bunk Inspection

After reading several blog posts about water damage that was much worse than it first appeared I decided to make sure there was no hidden damage before I put the window back in. If the framing needs to be removed and rebuilt the window won't be going back in. As I have said before, wood is a terrible option for a vehicle.

There is a big piece of plywood that makes up most of the cab bunk deck. That seems like unnecessary weight and may be hiding something. I peeled back the wallpaper because it was loose. Our plan is to remove all of the wallpaper and paint the interior instead.


These boards are not a normal part of a Class C RV


Both corners are damp. This is not looking good.

Not looking good at all

Removing the staples so as to remove the deck. The deck has to come up so I can see what the supporting wood looks like.



Removing the paneling




It looks like there was water damage previously. The damaged plywood has to be replaced and the supporting wood has to be inspected.
