Ernie, welcome to iRV2.com. We are glad to have you join us here and look forward to reading of your adventures and experiences. Sorry to hear of the water damage to your travel trailer. Water can come in from the roof, windows, compartment doors and the corners down the front and side walls. Look for any gap in sealant that looks suspect. You will probably have to replace the floor. Good luck with the insurance company. Keep us posted.

Glad to have you here on iRV2. Sure wish you did not have a first post with a problem. Like above notes, it could be roof, windows aor lacker doors leaking to cause the problem. Water will travel a distance once it gets inside and can ba a bear to chase down.

Hope you get it fixed soon.
