Just spent a week at Kielder and it rained and rained and rained. Discovered my 1992 Avondale Pearle Adonis has four damp spots. The water is not pouring in but the wood under the seat at the back and front of the caravan is wet, the other is the bottom of the panel next to the door, but not the door frame.
I know it will not be worth having panels replaced as the caravan only cost £2,000 ( a lot of money to me but not compared to newere vancs), I have been quoted £400 to re seal the van.
Is this a good price? Will have it done to prolong life of an otherwise immaculate caravan. We are in the North or England but can go down to North Yorkshire if I can get a better service.
Would it be better to leave it under cover (has always been outside before) for the winter to dry out and then have it done at the beginning of next season?
Any advise greatly appreciated
