Good video, I repaired my RV floor this way as a result of water damage which I think is often the cause. In my case, the floor (2-3 inch foam sandwiched between two thin layers of plywood) was still wet on the underside and the underbelly membrane had de-laminated in these areas. I think It is important to cut open this membrane to check for moisture and let the plywood dry out first and then glue and tape back or replace the membrane before you start the epoxy. If there are sagging areas of membrane and layers of plywood then you will end up wasting alot of this expensive epoxy to fill these voids. I used a jack and a piece of plywood to push the underbelly flat after gluing and epoxying. From above, I used a squeegee to push the epoxy flat after my injections. I would often epoxy down the holes a second time if they seemed to suck up way too much epoxy. Areas of the floor covered by cabinets etc could be done same way as people post how to epoxy RV wall back together (by injecting down tubing attached to a long flexible steel rod or drill bit) then holding together with plywood. Before I started the project I covered all roof seams with 2" and 4" wide Butyl sealing tape and I will re-calk some windows/compartments.
Keep making videos, RV repair diy is very niche and in need of posters like you with hard and reliable experience. Nothing more frustrating than looking for specialized help and finding none. I had one more question, do you know if any RV manufactures stand behind their faulty manufacturing or faulty materials supplier? You’d think they would, if only in order to maintain their reputation.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. As far as your question it really depends on the dealership in my experience to how well you are looked after. The manufacturer does not really deal with the public
Thank you for sharing this video. There is not many videos or forums on RV foam floor repair. I used West systems 105/205 on my Ultra-lite travel trailer for a 3'X3' section of my floor. Surprisingly it worked and is holding up. I believe this is the only epoxy resin on the market that will not melt foam on contact. Once its mixed together, you have about 10 minutes to inject it into the floor. Once it is set, the resin heats up hot for a bit. The product was not cheap ($70 Amazon) but cheaper than a dealer repair for sure.
Glad to see the video helped. All the floors I have done this way are still standing up. Hope to do more videos like this need to break the 1000 subscriber mark then it will be easier to do these videos
Hi there. Was your trailer a jayco? Was it the Luna panels? I have a jayco hybrid 17 ft camper trailer with the Luna panels in the floor. I am noticing some soft spots in high traffic areas. This seems like an excellent alternative to resheating the floor to regain some strength.
I'm going for it!! Awesome Idea, I think most of us are capable of this and sure as heck do not want to pull up and replace any floor. Ill probably sell off the camper for a fresher model anyhow after this.
Great job I did it on the 2004 keystone zepher.did the holes at 4 inches had to replace a small amount of wood in front of tub and door but the rest is solid.
Good evening fantastic video. I have the exact same model of motorcoach and soft spots in the same locations. I took up the Lino today to do some other work and was sent your video. I found a local marina that has the west system epoxy, so I will be doing this tomorrow. Again thanks for the awesome video.
Just through the top layer you will feel the drill bit hit the bottom layer use light pressure you should be ok. As far a the grid pattern I just do what ever grid that will work in the area you may end up using less or more.
This is an awesome video. It is a alternative to trying to resheat your floor with a new product to regain some strength and high traffic areas. I will definitely be doing this to my jayco 17 ft hybrid. I have been noticing some soft spots starting in the Luna panels.
Thanks for video really helpful. Couple question you can help with, can you drill 3/8 hole or is 1/2 better. How deep is the hole, just threw the top plywood not too deep into foam?
Very nice! Very helpful! What are hole diameter? What is the hole depth? What is size dowel? What size injector? With that info, I’m ready to try mine. Thx!,
Thanks for making this video. Wish I would of found it 6 months ago before I started trying other methods to support my droopy/sagging floor. Does this fix seem to be a permanent fix or a temporary patch? You show the dowels but didn't show actually using them. Do you need to put them in each hole or just under certain circumstances?
I've seen where you mentioned this would likely work on wood/Styrofoam combo. I've been looking from underneath contemplating adding supports when I found your video. Question is, I do see the floor move (push down) when someone walks on a problem spot. Is that what this is helping with in general or should I keep looking at adding supports here? Thanks for the video btw!
Would this method work with extremely soft foam flooring? With possible water damage? I really don’t want to tear through this stuff it’s a really big job
Great video ! I have a 2013’ forest River v cross . Previous owners weighed 400 lbs and now this rv has soft floor. Question: why couldn’t I drill thru the vinyl flooring instead of removing all the vinyl, then install new vinyl floor over top of old floor (which would have holes and epoxy in them) ?
This video answered my prayers!!! My elder mom just bought a 2017 Forest River Vibe and there are very soft spots in front of the kitchen sink and the toilet, they both have a round appearance, like the vinyl has a round hole beneath it with no support. I’m a novice DIYer and am looking for a workable solution that doesn’t involve pulling the entire floor out. My question is, could I skip removing the vinyl, space and fill the holes right through the current vinyl into the sandwich, then use peel and stick vinyl over it -(in the places it shows, not in the storage areas, under beds or cabinets) once the epoxy sets?
Hi - I just watched your video and I think it's a great idea to do it this way but I wonder if using an expanding closed cell spray foam would work as well? Closed cell foam is a great product. It has superior insulation, will never break down and is water proof. It also add's a degree of structural strength.....
It might but you would run into the same problem that caused the problem in the first place. The lack of support under the floor caused the foam to separate from the top and bottom layers and cause it to deteriorate causing the soft floor. Spray foam may fill and firm up but would not provide the structure the epoxy does
We just bought a 2014 Rockwood end of April 2013, used it first time in mid-June and found soft spot on a 10"X10" vinyl in front of the entry door. The rest of the floor is ok. We've owned Rvs for over 30 yrs and have never had this issue. Should we remove the underbelly to find the problem rather than rip the lino square? Where are you in Central Alberta?
Great job. I know this video is several years old but I have some questions. Did you remove any of the wet wood or did you let it dry out first and then work with it? Did you support if from below? I have a 3x3 sort sport right on front of a slide nd it really sinks when stepped on. It's also sunken before it's stepped on. Thanks for any input you can provide.
We have a 2018 "ultra lite" travel trailer with the foam floors, but haven't had this problem yet. Would you say it's inevitable that we will? Also, I apologize if I missed this, but what happens to the dowels. Are they removed, or cut off flush with the surface? Great video. THANKS!
Does not happen to all units, only ones that lack support under the floor. As far as the dowels they get cut off flush and sanded down before the Lino gets put back down.
This gives me peace of mind what to do if the problem develops. There are other videos of people doing insane projects replacing their floors, this method looks doable. THANK YOU!
Was the flooring glued down? How did you remove it and what did you use to re install it? I have a Rockwood that I am going to do this to with the same flooring.
Hi, it has been several years now since this video was made. I have the same issue and plan to do the same repair. I am curious to know if you have followed up on the repair to see how it has stood up over the years?
@@thecanadianrvrepairguy3062 here's a TH-cam link to the video of the soft floor in my camper: th-cam.com/video/lKmiU6vnsbw/w-d-xo.html I'd love to get your take on it. Also, thank you for the awesome video!!!
Hi , liked the video good job. I was thinking I would lay quarter inch ply over the whole floor to fix the occasional soft spots. And screw it down. Would you suggest that or not. Thanks. N.B. CANADA
I’m a fellow Albertan and looking at buying a Jayco with the sandwich style floor and it is my biggest concern about moving forward with the purchase… where are you out of and how can I go about chatting with you about this type of job if I wanted to bring it to you to get done? Any info greatly appreciated! Awesome video
Thank you for sharing your floor repair. This is a real issue for coaches with bonded floors. What make, model, and year was the Sprinted-based RV you were working on? Also, how thick was the foam core between the Filon sheets? Anything you would change about the process if you were to do it again? Thanks again!
How does this type of repair hold up over time? Also I have been researching this repair online and have watched several videos on TH-cam and it seems that this type of repair is not very common in the U.S. I have a 2011 Keystone Laredo that has a spongy floor, not due to water damage, so I am very hope full that this is my answer. Thanks from Texas
Is there a way to replace these types of floors economically? Can I change it to a traditional joist and plyboard floor? Or any other suggestions on how to replace epair if the entire trailer floor is badly softened or is this the best\only method?
Because of the light or ultra light designs, it would be a tedious and exhausting job. You're better off using this product and it leaves it harder then original.
@@JulioHernandez-xk7np - You aren't wrong! LOL At the present time, I have a camper box sitting on blocks and the trailer pulled out from under it in my back yard. 🤦♂️ New floor being installed next weekend.
Thank you for the video. I’ve been stumped on this issue and this appears to be the same make/model as mine. My question is how did you get the linoleum out from under the slide? Did you have to remove the slide? If I cut it just under the lip of the slide so you can’t see it, I was concerned the linoleum would pull up when the rollers extend/retract. Any info would be helpful. Thank you!
That is where I cut the linoleum as far as I can reach under with a knife. Then I glue it all back down and if it look to be an issue of peeling I staple the edge as it is still in an area the can not be seen. But the glue usually is all that is required and no peeling issues.
I am interested in your process on my Jayco Jay Feather x213 travel trailer. It has the Luan and Styrofoam sandwiched floor. It does not have that vinyl floor cover like the one in your video. Would it still work on the floor that I have? We live west of Chicago and wonder if you could direct me to someone that could do this state side?
How can you tell...#1: what type of floor you have. #2: how deep to drill? Good way to fix a floor. Great for a small are that needs repair. Better get a camera guy to free up your hands. lol
Yes I don’t always have someone to hold the camera. As far as telling what type of floor you have lift the Lino up in a inconspicuous area and see if you have filon or wood under it. Hole depth just through the first layer and stop when you hit the bottom.
If you have ductwork under the unit with floor vents, you can pull the vent up and get a good look at the floor style as if you cut out a cross section 🙂
Soft spots are caused by water. Water breaks down wood, foam and so on. You aren’t fixing the water damage which can lead to catastrophe damage from the water damage you can’t see
So this comment keeps popping up about water, I would hope I would get more credit but seen as I’m going validated a comment such as this I will explain further. Yes water could cause these issues but if you where paying attention to the holes that where drilled in the grid pattern all the foam was white free of discolouration and full of static. Which in turn indicated that no moisture was present or ever been there. Next time you choose to comment ensure you know all the facts.
Great video, thank you for putting the time into getting this up on TH-cam so folks could learn. Cheers from a fellow Albertan.

Would depend on how thick and how bad it’s broken down.

What size drill bit for the holes?
I used 1/2”
Great job. Thanks for sharing
No worries hope it helped
I know you said you have to watch it bubbling up but what about the underside, did it also bubble out on you? Thanks
Good video, thanks for sharing.
Does this fix work for a wood/styrofoam floor? Curious how large the holes were drilled? I really appreciate your response.
They where 1/2” holes. Yes it will work for a wood styrofoam
How far down do you drill the holes?? Doing this to my camper but don’t wanna drill down too far..how can I tell?
Just through the top layer the bit will fall through once you are through stop there

1/2 inch holes?
Yes 1/2”
I found West System 105A & 205A but also 105B & 205B ... which did you use? - A or B.
How do i fix the same problem if my floor is lamanaded with wood instead of the filon
You can do it the same way.
How do you set up your grid?
Figure out the size of soft spot do the grid pattern within the area of the soft spot.
Great video thank you, can you let me know how deep did you drill the holes in the floor?
Just through the surface layer
Did you have any sagging where there were seams in the flooring panels? I have some at the seams and am concerned this will not fix those areas.
No I did not have seams if I had some pictures I might be able to give you a better idea.

was your floor uneven? I have several "dips" in the floor, so I'm not sure if this repair would work
Yes there are always dips from the foam breaking down. The thing you need to watch for is once you inject the epoxy you can get high spots

Yes I do

Newer campers are made with just foam flooring and high traffic areas usually get soft quickly. No water has to be introduced for this to happen.
This is only hiding a problem. Find the leak which has caused the floor to become soft from water leaking in and fix it first. Then address the floor.
No leaks necessary just normal traffic will compress and disintegrate the foam
It's foam wear. Not water damage
How long did u wait to walk on it. I did this early this morning wondering how long to harden
