My son-in-law ripped his roof on a low hanging branch on the drive home. He has 2021 Sabre 37FLL. We are looking for a good shop to repair/replace it. He lives in New Jersey, but can travel to Pennsylvania if necessary. I mentioned a mobile tech, but he's worried about a rush job, as it won't...
I want to cover my RV roof with a tarp to protect against sun damage. I also want my solar panel to continue running to keep the battery charged. I put a clear vinyl window in the roof tarp, over the solar panel. I noticed a drop in the amps going to the battery, but everything still seemed...
This is my first year owning the camper and camping. I climbed on the roof to check things out and know I need to do some work. I am posting a few pictures and need advice.
Do all of these look like areas in need of attention?
What brand of lap sealant do I use?
Along the edge of the roof by...
Anyone have trouble with their roofs going bad? I put my 06 359ts up for sale and a guy came by with his "knows a lot about campers" son to check it out. After climbing all over it he wanted me to knock off 8 grand because the roof may need to be replaced someday due to getting brittle. The...
I understand that roofs can be made with different materials, and I'm not sure what my roof is made off. What kind of cleaner and sealant i should use?
Thanks!
Hello all!
New to this world figured I'd get some input. Recently picked up a 2003 (title says 2002 so we will see) shamrock hybrid camper! Got it for the awesome price of free!
Anyway it has some extensive water damage. The inside roof is peeling towards the rear. Anyone ever doe extensive...
2012 Rockwood Signature Ultralight 8315BSS. TV stopped working and I've tested all the wires and connections and determined the antenna cable to be the culprit. The coax cable in the TV cabinet is RG6 white. The coax coming out of the roof and routing through the antenna leg appears to be...
I searched for this topic and didn't see anything that addressed what I'm looking for. I tossed a coin and it came up "go ahead and buy a winter cover" for our new TT. This will be our first year storing it for the winter. It will be outside, on the side of our garage on a gravel pad built...
Hi all!
Some bad news. We damaged the roof of our 2005 flagstaff 625d popup. The support post that hold up the front passenger side of the roof was ripped from the side wall. I took it in to a repair shop and they quoted $250 to brace it back up and make it usable.
The real issue is that they...
So our daughter's husband's family has added a roof to their existing roof, and I wasn't sure what to make of it. The trailer is sitting on one site year round. Best I can guess is the extra roof is just set on, as they made similar ones for the slides and they've removed them for the summer...
It appears that we may have a water leak near the front left side of the vehicle. We noticed evidence of water damage on the paper covering the plywood in the cubby by the bunk, located over the driver's left shoulder.
I have not climbed on the roof to investigate.
How does one get on the roof...
I have a 2014 ss1251 popup camper. I replaced a battery and when I hooked it up the roof raised on its own and now it won’t go down. What little research I found suggested that the travel limiter might have overextended the lift and to get it down there is a cable that can be used to lower the...
Hi all,
Background
This is our first year owning/staying long-term in an RV.
We live in the Pacific Northwest and therefore seals are super important.
We've had temperatures in the high 80s lately
Main Questions:
How do I tell if a seal needs to be redone? Or do you just redo them all at...
Hi ,
I have a 2017 forest river viking 17 bh , noticed the roof has a depression and after rain water pooling -is this something of concern and if yes what is the fix , appreciate your views.
Thanks,
Mike
Went up to check my roof since it’s been so hot out and noticed the A/C condensate collects and pools in the roof. Is this normal? Will this cause damage or leaking ?
Anything I can do about it ?
I have a 2018 Cherokee 274dbh. We covered it for the season this past winter and when we opened up we saw that the wall paper in the back bunk corner was discolored. I did not see any roof problems at that time. Today I was cleaning the roof to trade in the camper and now see a crack in the...
Hey guys and gals. My wife and I just purchased a 2021 1251. I noticed when it's fully closed the drivers side of the roof is slid over. Almost to the point its touching the side of the camper which caused the rubber seal to tear. The passenger side has a large gap. My questions are 1. Why is...
Hey All,
Unfortunatley, I'm in a bind.
The rear right corner has rotten and the corner post mount is pulling through the sidewall of the roof. I know this means a major overhaur of the roof structure. UGH.
That said, I need a short term fix. I'm thining about buying a large piece of steel...
