When we had a blowout, a piece of the trailer bottom was ripped out behind the wheelwell. I bought a piece of sheetmetal, filled the gap with expandable foam, trimmed off what stuck out when it dried, cut the sheetmetal to fit around the gap, and then either pop-riveted it or used sheetmetal screws to secure it into place (I forget which one, it's been about 4 years since it's happened). It was a fairly easy fix. I didn't caulk around the edges, but I guess you could to that to make it even more watertight.
