Anyone in Birmingham area that can help?

I have a 1953 Clipper that was completely redone about 10 years ago. The person who did it can not be found. He did a great job and I hold nothing against his work. Problem is it started to leak and I have had vents and air conditioner sealed and now have a clear tarp over the top, yet it still leaks. My bamboo floor has rotted away in one spot. I am just sick. Am I going to have to build a shed over it? Does the belly pan collect water? What I need is a knowledgeable person to look at it. Is there anyone in the Birmingham area?

Try one of these locations to find the leak and either repair yourself or have a knowledgeable AS tech do it.
