roof

I am new to rvs and had a small incident putting a small hole in the roof puncturing the plywood. We got some rain coming Thursday and am wondering the best ways to repair this the right way.

2003 Fleetwood Terra, no leaks on roof. Looking for best options to replace or seal roof? Anyone have shops in Southern California- San Diego, Orange or Riverside County. Trying to stay less than $10,000.

2018 Bus What sealant to use where roof roll over meets wall?

I see the specs call out for a 3.5”-6” roof to install this unit. Anyone installed one on a 2” roof? I read one post where the installer just trimmed the foam divider and modified the electrical box. That sounds a lot easier than building a 1.5” spacer for the top or bottom of the roof. Would...

I've been researching products and materials that can be used for insulating or shading a motorhome roof for purposes of reducing the sun loading. I've seen various videos on adding Reflectix type products and shading products from Shade RV. I only want to deploy something for a few days at a...

I have a 2015 winnebago vista 31ke and I’m looking for roof seam tape. It’s the tape between the roof and exterior walls. It’s pealing back and I’d like to replace it before it gets too bad. I tried to look up the tape on the Winnebago parts list but I’m not having any luck. I plan on...

RV roofs are lightweight, durable, and resistant to the elements, but that doesn’t mean they’re impenetrable. It actually takes surprisingly little to damage your RV’s roof. Strong winds might blow a branch down, punching through the roof and creating a serious leak. Over time, mold and mildew...

Hey there fellas, I’m new to this forum so I hope I’m posting in the right location. I just purchased a 1995 Winnebago Adventurer 34 ft on f53 chassis 7.5l motor. When I purchased it the roof needed repair. Yup the infamous Winnebago fiberglass roof had piped out the railing on on side...

Has anyone else ever found a hairline stress fracture/crack on their roof? We have a 2019 Escape19, purchased new. No one has been on the roof. We just discovered it while cleaning for winter storage. It’s about 12” long. Suggestions for repair?

Motorhomes have come a long way since the days of clunky metal construction and laborious maintenance. Today’s RV is sleek, stylish, and typically much lighter and easier to maintain than older versions. One of the most significant advances in motorhome design and ease of care has been the roof...

Found this cut on my roof today. 4 year old Verona I bought used. This is the front seam of the coach where the cap meets the roof. Any suggestions?

Hey Folks, I recently purchased a 2008 Contessa. I want to remove the old Winegard satellite that was factory installed. In it's place, I plan to mount a 12x12x4 junction box. The junction box is adding solar panels and cabling later. On top of the junction box, I'll mount a Parsec Husky...

A big thank you to everyone who provided the great info and solutions. As it turns out - my roof, after a thorough inspection is in good condition, but in the early stages of deteriorating with this streaking. I have cleaned it with dawn - prepped it, and going to apply a product for boats. I...

I was on top of my RV the other day and I hit a soft spot on the roof. I didn't break through but it sounded as if the wood under the rubber top had lost cohesion. This was a spot directly by a vent, so I assume that a hole had developed in the rubber foil and water had seeped in and damaged the...

We were checking vents on our roof as we were getting a sewer-like odor and found this one. Any idea what it is? When we unscrewed the cover and went to look further and removed the nut, the bolt fell down into who-knows-where. The earlier mentioned odor seems to have a connection to our using...

Does anyone out there have any NEW info as to what us folks who need a new roof ac are supposed to do? Any info on a “plug n play” harness for switching from the Dometic to Fresh Jet? Any info would be appreciated!:thumb::thumb:

I’m trying to understand how the roofs and sidewalls have been constructed on the New Aire, North Star, or any other diesel pusher under 37 feet over the past five years or so. In the video linked below at 12:12, two different roof types are shown. I believe the New Aire uses the flat roof...

While inspecting the roof on my 5th wheel, I discovered a vent was missing. I only noticed it because there is a punch hole through the roof material and there is a "shadow" where the mushroom cap was around the vent. No vent pipe at this location. Also no screw holes so apparently the cap is...

The picture says it all. The slide-out had been extended for a while when I was sidelined for a few months. The slide-out has a retractable cover, but raccoon(s) managed to get on top of the rig, onto the slide-out, and under the cover. We found footprints and claw marks. This damage was seen...

I'm camping this weekend and am not able to watch college football on ABC/ESPN due to the YouTube TV / Disney dispute. The campground does not offer cable. Normally I stream the game. I tried to deploy the old analog Wineguard batwing antenna that I've never used. Unfortunately, I find lots of...

I would like to install rigid panels on our 1999 Fleetwood Bounder. The roof is epdm over very thin, maybe 1/8 inch, luan plywood. Below that is styrofoam. It has arched metal ribs every so often. I don't know the spacing between ribs. I don't believe the thin plywood is sufficient for wood...

My Motorhome suffers from the white streaking down the sides with normal rain runoff. The roof coating is in excellent condition with no leakage. I have cleaned the roof with the 303 roof cleaner - is there a product I can apply to stop this after a cleaning? You help is appreciated!

I'm getting ready to install the Starlink 3rd generation Standard antenna on the roof of my 2021 Dutch Star 4369. I will mount it on the roof, on the rear bathroom "hump", but I'm looking for ideas of how to route the antenna cable from the roof to the lower left cabinet just to the right of...

I'm hoping someone can help. My 2021 Dutch Star 4369 has 4 roof drains, one in each corner, and they are all plugged. It looks like the actual drain hole is covered by a piece of perforated sheet metal, so I can't see the actual drain hole. There is a tube that runs down the inside of each...

There is a spot on the roof of my 2022 (manufactured date 12/21) Flagstaff Super Light TT that has pulled up and feels gummy to the touch. The wood substrate under this spot does not feel soft at this time, and I do not see any punctures or holes in the membrane. What is the best way to repair...
