While I was out of town, DH had an accidental flood (kitchen sink) in our 3055. Water was in the kitchen/living area about and hour and a half.
He ripped out the carpet/pad and all of the kitchen vinyl. He also loosened the bottom cover where some water ran out.
We also cut the vapor barrier to remove the rest of the water and insulation. What a job in the 107 degree Texas heat. At least it is drying out quickly!
The insurance folks have not been out but I expect them Monday. I contacted a few local RV service departments for information but was told to bring in the unit. We use the RV on the job so we want to make every step count.
I would like to get an idea of how this repair will go. How do they re-install the insulation and vapor barrier? Is it done from the bottom? or is the floor removed? Do they have to remove the base cabinets to install floor covering?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Cindy
