Why Roof Maintenance Matters
Your RV’s roof shields the interior from weather. Neglecting roof maintenance can cause leaks, mold, and structural damage, and replacing a rotted roof and interior can be costly. Regular inspections and cleaning help catch problems early. Sealants crack over time, so resealing prevents water intrusion.
Roof Systems We Service
- Rubber (EPDM/TPO) – lightweight and durable but require periodic cleaning and sealing.
- Fiberglass – more resistant to damage yet can crack; requires inspection and regular sealant replacement.
- Aluminum – durable and low maintenance but prone to dents and requires a lot of sealant replacement.
- Walkable & non‑walkable roofs – we use fall‑protection to work safely on all roof types.
Signs of Roof Trouble
- Soft spots or sagging – may indicate rotten substrate or water damage.
- Ceiling stains or musty odors – suggest leaks or mold.
- Cracked sealant around vents and seams – cracks invite water.
- Loose seams or damaged membrane – common on older EPDM roofs.
Our Leak‑Detection Process
- Visual inspection – checking seals, seams, skylights, and roof edges.
- Moisture detection – identifying hidden leaks using moisture meters and sealtech pressurization systems.
- Structural assessment – examining roof framing for rot or damage.
Repair & Reseal Services
- Leak repairs – resealing seams, vents, skylights, and antenna bases.
- Membrane patching – patching or replacing damaged sections.
- Vent & skylight replacement – upgrading cracked or brittle fixtures.
- Partial or full roof rebuilds – addressing structural damage, rotten substrate, joists, or roof trusses.
Preventive Maintenance & Insurance
Inspect your roof at least twice a year—before and after travel season. Reseal joints annually or as needed. Regular maintenance costs far less than repairing water damage. We provide this service and warranty our work! Southern RV works with all major insurance carriers, documenting storm, hail, and tree damage, and handling paperwork for quick repairs.
