As of today there are many people living full time in RVs but corona virus pandemic has caused challenges for RV community as many people are trying to find a way to shelter-in and keep themselves safe. It has been a challenging time for RV community which needs to adapt to these uncertain times as best they can and also to help each other out. So, when you are indoors make this time useful and get your RV repair and prepare for the next journey post corona pandemic.
The Primary Culprit
The root cause of most of the RV roof repairs is water damage. Water damage starts from the roof. If you inspect your RV roof on a regular basis and perform routine repairs most RV roof damages can be avoided. So climb up on to the RV roof. Most RVs have ladder attached to them. When you climb up make sure someone else is also keeping an eye on you as safety should be the first priority. Also put some sheets of plywood on the roof so that RV can support your weight and distribute it evenly. Now make quick inspection and find out areas requiring immediate attention or can cause any issue later on.
Fixing a Damaged RV Roof
The best way to fix a damaged RV roof is by applying a roof coating e.g., (RV Roof Magic) to it. However, before you apply the roof coating you need to take some steps and precautions first.
First you need to thoroughly clean the RV roof from dirt, debris and any loose material.
Second you have to wash the entire RV using mild detergents and bristle brush.
Then before applying the roof coating if there are some large holes or tears then you need to repair them first.
Finally apply the roof coating using paint brush and nap rollers. Let the coating to dry and cure properly.
Some roof materials like fiberglass and aluminum require more maintenance than standard rubber roofs, so always stay on top of maintenance and avoid costly repairs later on.
The Run Down
It is crucial for you to consistently inspect the roof and perform repairs as soon as possible and use a durable roof coating like RV Roof Magic to perform the repairs. Also when you are not travelling use a RV cover as it also provides protection when your RV is idle or parked.
