Just caught this one today, I was wondering why the grey wood dresser over the outdoor kitchen was peeling away at the bottom… now we know….
When the trailer was built they used small self tapping screws to hold the door frame in place… of course they snapped off all the heads on the bottom screws. This resulted in any water that collects in the door seals to drain into the broken screw holes! This then pooled in the outdoor kitchen floor and then dribbled down into the dresser walls and onto the bedroom floor.




As a temp fix I filled the broken holes with silicone and then pulled each screw on the sides and top, siliconed the hole and the screw. Not amused but not our first rodeo… just wish one day they would not build RV’s using piece work and rush like crazy.
So id you have a 25G, check these screws to ensure they are not letting water in.
Next I’ll see if I can find the rain gutter extrusion like they put above the entry door. Would prefer to have that over my outdoor kitchen and storage doors.
Cheers
