Unfortunately there is no avoiding as I already own the trailer...

Yeah the floor sags out past the frame rails, but there doesn't appear to be ANY signs of water damage anywhere in the area. Just below the large picture window in the curb side and above the axles.

The floor doesn't even feel mushy, fairly firm, just "bent"

I'm trying to get some idea of how the floor is constructed in this trailer. I know the top layer is quite thin, and there is a Styrofoam "sandwich" type construction. Also there is a wiring channel built into the floor that seems to run right along where the floor starts to sag.

Hopefully it won't get worse, and I'm pretty sure this wasn't caused by rot or water damage.
