On our way to the campground this weekend our TV antenna broke off and was only held by the cable. This led to the antenna flopping around on the roof for some time and tearing a hole. Any suggestions on the best way to fix this? Unfortunately its right on the side seam area.
My previous thread was responded to by PhilG and said he waited 2 weeks for the decor to set up before he put the permabond tape on the roof.
I went around the roof and refreshed all the cracks and seals with Decor. I can wait two weeks with no problem. However, i was going on a trip in a...

Hi guys,
Great to get connected in this community. Reaching out to get some answers about a new to me 95 Rockwood XL Pop-Up I acquired recently. Roof has to be completely rebuilt, but the rest seems solid and in good shape (amazingly).
Question: Where do I find the channel molding (if...
We have a 2009 17' hilo, bought new. Got it inspected and they said we need a complete new roof due to a chemical reaction from different metals used in the construction! Has this happened to anyone else? Been searching posts but haven't seen this problem. This happened during manufacturing...
It finally happened. My roof leaked and shorted out an LED above my cab-over bed. I found it because the light was on and would not shut off. I was just going in the run my heat on "heat pump" mode to see if it worked. I pulled the light from the ceiling and there was a small amount of water on...

2011 36 RE, Roof torn front left side.
Does anyone know if the factory does out of warranty repairs???
I believe some wood has to be replaced and possibly a new rubber roof.
Also some possible damage under the front cap where water has gotten in.
A current factory name & phone number would be...
I damaged the membrane on my TPO roof, on the slop behind the front cap. I removed the lose membrane, cleaned the area with acetone and applied a patch from Alpha Systems using a Scotch Brand adhesive recommended by Alpha. I used Alpha's self leveling caulk-though it didn't self level, around...
Hello,
I have a 2014 Coachman Catalina, bought in August 2015) bunkhouse with two slides (sorry I cannot remember the model number). While camping over Memorial Day weekend, we had a bad storm come through and blew tree branches onto our trailer. At some point, one branch struck our rubber...
My wife and I purchased a new Forester in February from a large RV dealer here in So Cal. This is our third new RV in 17 years. After we signed the contract we walked back out to admire our new purchase and discovered the rear cap had noticeable dents in it. The salesman and a service...
I have a Towlite 2004T & have notice some puckering on the roof in the corner. I also have some delamination on the side wall just below the roof SO! I considered it time to repair & replace.
I've studied many of the YT videos & think I can do it but I'm a little concerned about removing the...

Not sure if I was an idiot while parking in the dark or if a branch hit me in 50mph winds during a storm. Anyway, at the edge of the roof it has a little damage. What is the best for roof repair.
Hello everyone.
I bought a 2007 8272s new in 2008. Everything has been wonderful with it until last fall when I discovered a leak in the caulking on the roof. I caught it early when I discovered by walking on roof a spongy feeling to it. I pealed back the epdm roofing which was glued to the...
I don't have any leaks on my 2005 Forester but am considering one of the Roof Repair systems. Does anyone have any experience with either RV roof company in Florida or RV Armor company that will come to your location? Thanks in advance!!!
I damaged the fabric on my roof yesterday. In doing web and forum searches, I find limited information. I contacted a major dealer nearby and found they don't sell Alpha products, but Dicor products. I called Alpha and they must have only one person and they were gone early in the day. My local...
I found a small crack on the roof probably half inch long and no deeper than eighth of an inch deep. Any recommendations on a silicon/sealant? Would that be the way to go?
Thanks
Anyone know how to remove the trim on the front cap? I need to peel back my roof - water damaged osb has to be removed - and I cannot figure out how to remove the side trim on the cap. I cannot see any screws.
We have a 2011 Georgetown 337 that we got in October. Has had a leak all along. Been back at dealer more than at home. Two weeks ago they removed all sealant, gutters and awning. Replaced with new, told us someone had put some incorrect sealant on in places. Brought home, got all gear on deck to...
I understand the roof material on my 2006 Forester is fiber glass. I have a soft spot under the fiber glass on the front right where the roof meets the front cap from a previous leak. Every one has told me it would be to expensive to repair the soft spot so I should keep a eye on it be leave it...
