Just keep sanding. Just keep sanding, sanding....

Went up to work on the trailer over the weekend.  Just more sanding.

This is my Hubster.

Then the fellas cut out the ceiling panel around the vent to see how much wood rot there was.

They pulled out the old insulation etc.  Because the vent is so close to the right cupboard over the oven, they had to pull that out as well.  It looks like the wood rot & damage is only in the vent area. Good sign.

The vent

They also pulled out the support wood that was underneath the oven.  It had gotten charred.  So they will replace it with a piece of hardibacker.  Luckily the charred part of the laminate won't show.  I'd never find any replacement laminate!

We will have to put the sanding on hold, and focus on getting the window frames cleaned and polished the next time we are there, so Dave can get all the windows sealed before there are any bad rain showers.
