Bulges in the external aluminium sheeting often means serious water ingress, has occurred and has cause the wood framing to swell and distort the side panel. Now obviously this has me concerned, but I'm not too bad at DIY and I was wondering if you think this is an easy thing to repair, or whether it will be more hassle than it is worth?

Many modern luxury caravans can be supplied with a flat-screen TV already mounted but older models are unlikely to have them. However, if you buy a used static caravan that is a few years old there is no need to despair. The practicality of mounting the TV will depend on what the walls are made from, the width of the wall you want to fit it to and the type of studs within the wall. Usually, the construction material of walls in older caravans won’t be sufficient to support a modern flat screen TV due to its weight. Considerations when wall mounting a TV Thankyou reggie and John , just to clarify I guess my caravan has something like 3mm ply inner wall , insulation the the metal outside so these fixings would be ok for this ! sorry if I seam over cautious , Howy

Yes, you can continue to return items as normal as long as you follow the government guidelines about leaving your house. It seems a good deal and the inside was mint, with the exception of one thing. They told me that they had to get a leak fixed and it had been siliconed externally on the roof. There was no smell of dampness, but I did notice that there was some movement in the wall where the water had accessed.I am assuming it's not the weight this 'device' needs to carry - rather just to prevent movement. What about something simple like hook and eyes into side walls and using curtain wire across the width of the table. Alternatively glue a strip of wood across the rear and screw a couple of 2" swing downs into the board. You will need to consider the size as well as the weight of the TV and where the best place is to mount it if you intend to use the rotate and tilt facility. These factors will determine the type of TV mount required. Reference to different types of wall mounts can be found in the specification manual supplied by the TV manufacturer. TV mounting Safety aspects Overlap the wallpaper at the top and the bottom, pushing wallpaper firmly (but gently) into the join between the ceiling and wall or wall and skirting board with your clean cloth. Then trim off the excess with your craft knife/snap blade or a sharp pair of scissors

Silicone sealant is no cure and can only be regarded as a temporary seal. Silicone is not a high modulus sealant, (it won’t accept much movement without the seal failing). Resealing an awning rail requires the correct sealants and methods to be effective.If you are planning on giving everything in your caravan a fresh coat of paint, including the cupboards and doors, we recommend taking all cupboard doors off their hinges and removing drawers from their housing. Take these bits outside and paint as normal, topping up with additional layers if required. While it’s possible to paint everything in place, it’s a lot more difficult, can cause you to easily miss spots and it’s a great opportunity to clean out areas not often seen. Use some masking tape or a pencil to mark which doors and drawers go where to save you some hassle when it comes to rebuilding your caravan.

These fixings will only be as strong as the wall board they are fixed to. If you change your mind after fixing them, the only way to remove them without tearing a sizeable hole in the wallboard will be by drilling out the anchor part so the visible collars detach. Filling and making good invisibly may be a problem. Use a plumber’s plumb line tool (a piece of rope tied to a heavy weight) to help you align to a straight line from the first piece of wallpaper. Working to the ceiling/wall join or doorframes isn’t recommended and can often lead to tilted or angled wallpaperI've never worked on caravans before apart from regular maintenance. I presume that the panels are some kind of laminated insulated panel, so some kind of load spreading fastener is required to secure things to the walls. Some items seem to be secured by screws others by rivets. any advice on what to use would be appreciated . Start wallpapering in a section that isn’t seen that often or can be a bit messy without taking away from the aesthetic, this will help you get used to the process The metal screw type fixing is particularily good where you are replacing something that was there previously, because you can use the same original hole but make the new fixing far stronger.
