How to really inspect your RV for water damage & fix leaks the right way…..!!!

Just as with any vehicle, the roof of your RV is vulnerable to scratches, wear and tear, and even leaks. Everyone hates having leaks in their RV, but chances are everyone will have to deal with them at some point. With proper RV maintenance and the right tools e.g., RV Roof Magic to perform simple RV leak repairs, you will enjoy your trips for years to come.

 

Common Causes of Leaks

· Rain and snow are two major culprits behind RV leaks. Most RVs have flat roofs and snow sits on that flat surface, and the melted water seeps into the seams ultimately finding a way into underlying roof deck.

· Debris and low hanging tress branches create rips, holes, or loosened seals in your mobile home’s roof, which then allows rain and snow to leak through.

· Material break down and improper installation also cause roof leaks. As the roof coating gets older it will crack and stretch allowing rain water to seep in.

Identifying a Leak

· If there is a hole in your ceiling from where sunlight can pass through.

· Sagging ceiling or walls

· Smoke test the RV

· Visual inspection of the roof.

Fixing Leaks

The most recommended way to fix RV roof leaks is by applying a roof coating e.g., RV Roof Magic, which is compatible to use with your RV roof surface. Roof coating e.g., RV Roof Magic, benefits in extending the life of the roof. Extra life means you can wait for years before roof replacement and potentially prevent roof material ending up in the landfill.
