RV Roof Leaks- Why EPDM Liquid Roof is the best option to save what’s underneath…!!!

RV gives you the opportunity to roam in the wilderness without having the need to rent a hotel room but on the other hand it also puts responsibility on the shoulders of RV owners to take proper care of it. Otherwise, it may turn form a reliable camper to a major money sink.RV roofs are not strong like residential roofs and can be compromised by many things, ranging from falling tree branches to too much sun exposure.

Locate the Leak

You need to have a visual inspection both inside and outside of the RV. On inside of the RV, look for dark stains on walls and ceilings. Once you have found the stains there is good chance that the leak is somewhere nearby. Now take a ladder and climb on the RV roof top. Here you have to carefully inspect for the signs of roof damage like wear & tear, a branch puncture through the roof membrane,areas of damage around vents and the like.

Repair the Leak

Once you have found the leak the next step is to start the repair process and with EPDM Liquid Roof it is quite easy.

  • Get some handy tools together. You will need a paint brush or roller to apply the sealant. You will also need a razor knife and a scrapper to remove the old sealant and caulking.

  • Next, you will need to clean the RV form dirt, debris and any other loose material. The RV roof should be spotless to start the repair work.

  • Once the RV roof is clean, roll on the EPDM Liquid Roof sealant using roller and paint brushes. Apply a single coat and allow it to dry. It is waterproof as soon as it is applied however, it will take some time to cure properly.

  • When the repair patch has cured test the repair with a water hose to make sure that the leak has been alleviated.
