  • We bought an RV. We bought a used 2001 Fleetwood Expedition Diesel pusher. It is in great shape. But we decided that we wanted to spend some time remodeling the interior. It's the perfect time for a project like this anyway since almost everything is closed at the moment anyway.
    We started by doing some minor engine work. The alternator needed to be replaced. Once that was done, we started pulling out flooring. The carpet came out quickly. There was also linoleum that needed to be removed. Luckily for us, there wasn't very much that was glued down. It was mostly held down to the sub floor with staples.
    The most difficult section was the area on the slide outs. It seems a lot of the flooring is attached when the slides are off the RV. There are sections tacked to the underside of the slide that need to be removed. Removing the slides wasn't an option for us. So we had to find a way to remove the carpet with the slide still attached to the chassis.
    Next we had to patch all of the holes in the walls and sand everything smooth.
    We spent 5 days removing flooring, flooring staples, patching the walls and sanding everything down. It's getting closer to the point that paint can go on.

    At 13:26 and 13:29 the floor of the slide out has water stains. That didn’t come from inside. Most likely your walls there are wet and rotting. At 13:24 your bathroom floor looks water stained. Also if you find “surface mold” I guarantee you it’s in the walls also. Check the seal joints on the roof. One way to tell is to go around some of your outside corner joints and pull a screw out here and there. If the screw has rust on it then there you go. Moisture is present and most likely the wood it rotted. Don’t feel bad I just went through the same thing. I am almost done but I wish I had searched RUclips on buying an RV and looking for a water damage first. Goodluck to you both and I’ll be watching. Ohh and please do the floor LAST. 👍😀

      This is great advice. I love learning from other people who have done this stuff. We spent about 3 weeks total hunting down rot and mold. The worst was the bathroom. We found out that the shower pan had micro cracking all over and was extremely brittle. It water stained the flooring and we had dry rot in the walls. It’s been a process. And yes, we are saving the floors for last. We just found a great price so we bought some. 😆

      Just bought a 1990 tiffin allegro 31ft 40kmiles pilot family owned. Only handful of trips. Well cared for. Ml motor is immaculate. Some scumbags cut my cat being a ford but I'll figure it out. Love this advice I havent done anything but start her occasionally since getting her in 2020 for guess how much? 1800firm lowered to 1200 firm, the lady wasnt facebookers, so nobody got to see it and the initial picture was deceiving compared to the first unofficial quick bath I gave it is nice, I got it for a whopping 240$ steal and the new fridge had less than 100 hrs and was installed for 1700 on the road when they were tripping. Kids grew old it sat in yard they had paving company coming so I got the upper hand on that situation. Absolute blessing. I was offered the bullsize tall fridge that needed repair but I figured leave it which I wish I kept for spare. But whatever. I may have some questions if you dont mind me adding you guys.. godbless from NH

    Love love the separate bedroom. Must have when living it full time. Need privacy and a way to get away from each other if it’s raining and u can’t get outside. lol
    I have a medical service dog, and a bed that he can get on is a must so he can alert me if needed.

    Is this project/renovation even cost effective? Or would you guys come out better just investing in a used RV? 🤷🏽‍♂️😳

    When you are dealing with any mold, as specially Black Mold, wear a Respirator PERIOD with a pull-up suit! Environmental Pneumonia, been there done that. Once the black mold dries out, you disturb, it goes air-born. I had a MARRIED Couple that wanted to hire me to just gut there RV. So I went there to do an estimate. Water damage with BLACK mold everywhere! I told them NOPE! I told them to burn it. Yes; it was that bad.

      We bought a 2001 for $20,000. We didn’t think we would find a diesel pusher that we could afford. But one popped up on Craigslist.

    What state did you buy this in? Did you run in to any issue with CA smog?

    • @ryanandsu
      @ryanandsu  3 года назад +1

      We bought it in CA. It didn’t need to be smogged because it’s a diesel. And since it is an RV, it didn’t need the CARB certificates either. But it is really expensive to register.
