A Benimar that shows more than 20 percent wood moisture in the body panel during a moisture reading almost certainly has an active leak that you should not ignore.
A Benimar that shows more than 20 percent wood moisture in the body panel during a moisture reading almost certainly has an active leak that you should not ignore. First, trace the source, usually a roof seam, roof hatch, or window rubber, and then have the full extent professionally measured. Depending on the damage, you can choose a targeted repair or a sale with clear disclosure of the damp problem.
Benimar campers are generally well built, but especially on older models or after heavy rain, sealant seams and rubber seals can fail. Moisture that gets into the sandwich panel will eventually not only damage the wood but can also cause mould.
Benimar motorhomes have a good reputation for build quality, but no brand is immune to water damage. The most common problem areas are the roof, roof hatches, windows, and the seams between wall and roof panels. Especially on models that are parked outside a lot or are older than ten years, sealant can age and start to leak.
An early sign is often a musty smell or discolouration on the ceiling or along the walls. If you feel soft or bumpy panel material, moisture has already penetrated deeply. In that case, a professional moisture reading is recommended to determine the exact extent. Read more about how to recognise and tackle a roof leak in our guide to moisture damage in motorhomes.
Small leaks, such as a roof hatch that needs re-sealing, are often relatively cheap to fix. But if moisture has already got into the insulation or the furniture, costs can quickly add up. Think of replacing wall panels, floor sections, or even the entire roof. In such cases, repair is not always economically worthwhile, especially if the motorhome already has a lower market value.
The impact of water damage on the value of your Benimar is significant. A damp motorhome is difficult to sell to private buyers, and dealers will deduct the repair costs from the price.
