Patching Rotted Wood Flooring
Hi,
We have a 18 year old Holiday Rambler Imperial. I am removing the old carpeting and replacing it with engineered hardwood flooring. In removing the carpet, I found a small amount of water damage by the edge of the slideout extending along the outside wall to the engine firewall. The amount of rot is not extensive except in the extreme front left corner where there is about .5 sq. ft. of severe damage. Since all damage is not in a high traffic area, rather than tare up the flooring, my plan is to 1) put rotten wood stabilizer on all areas, 2) use Bondo were needed, 3) use Bondo fiberglass mat and resin to repair/replace the severely damaged area. Once complete, I would then install my hardwood flooring on top. I would appreciate any suggestions and/or comments on this plan.
