Rv Roof Repair And Resealing Experts

360-851-9636

Cannons RV Repair provides professional RV Roof Reseal services in Vancouver, Washington and throughout Clark County and Cowlitz County.

Our family has been repairing, resealing, and replacing RV roofs since 1997. We work on motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers, truck campers, and other recreational vehicles.

A properly maintained RV roof can help protect your RV from water intrusion, ceiling damage, wood rot, soft spots, delamination, wall damage, and expensive structural repairs.

If your RV has cracked sealant, loose seams, a leaking roof vent, damaged skylight, or other signs of roof deterioration, Cannons RV Repair can inspect the problem and determine the appropriate repair.

Complete RV Roof Resealing

An RV Roof Reseal is preventative maintenance designed to protect the seams, openings, and roof penetrations where water is most likely to enter an RV.

RV roofs are constantly exposed to:

  • Rain
  • Sunlight
  • UV exposure
  • Temperature changes
  • Road vibration
  • Wind
  • Movement and flexing

Over time, roof sealant can crack, shrink, separate, dry out, or lose adhesion.

During an RV roof reseal, we inspect important areas such as:

  • Front roof seams
  • Rear roof seams
  • Side seams
  • Roof edges
  • Roof vents
  • Plumbing vent caps
  • Skylights
  • Refrigerator vents
  • Air conditioner openings
  • Antennas
  • Solar mounting points
  • Ladder mounting areas
  • Roof-mounted accessories
  • Previous repair areas

The goal is not simply to cover old sealant with more material. We want to identify areas that are beginning to fail and properly prepare them before compatible sealant is applied.

Why Proper Roof Preparation Matters

Surface preparation is one of the most important parts of an RV roof reseal.

New sealant may not bond correctly to a surface that is dirty, contaminated, loose, or covered with deteriorated material.

Depending on the condition of the roof, preparation may include:

  • Inspecting existing sealant
  • Identifying loose or failed material
  • Removing deteriorated sealant when necessary
  • Cleaning sealing surfaces
  • Removing dirt and contaminants
  • Preparing roof seams
  • Preparing roof penetrations
  • Inspecting roof-mounted accessories
  • Checking for separated seams

Taking the time to properly prepare the roof can make a major difference in the quality and longevity of the finished repair.

Southwest Washington Weather and RV Roof Maintenance

The weather in Southwest Washington makes regular RV roof maintenance especially important.

RV roofs throughout Vancouver, Clark County, and Cowlitz County are exposed to frequent rain, moisture, temperature changes, and seasonal weather.

Roof sealants and adhesives also have specific application requirements. Temperature, surface conditions, moisture, and curing time can all affect how well a product performs.

Cannons RV Repair follows the application and curing requirements of the products being used rather than simply applying sealant regardless of conditions.

Proper curing is an important part of producing a quality RV roof reseal.

Specialized RV Roof Services

An RV roof inspection may uncover additional components that are cracked, damaged, deteriorated, or contributing to a leak.

Cannons RV Repair provides a range of related RV roof services.

RV Roof Vent Replacement

RV roof vents can become cracked, brittle, damaged, or begin leaking around their mounting surfaces.

We can install or replace many types of roof vents, including:

  • Standard RV roof vents
  • Powered roof vents
  • Bathroom vents
  • Vent lids
  • Roof vent covers
  • Complete vent assemblies

Properly sealing the vent mounting surface is just as important as installing the vent itself.

Plumbing Vent Cap Replacement

RV plumbing vent caps are small roof components that are exposed to sunlight and weather year after year.

The plastic can eventually become brittle, crack, loosen, or break.

We can replace damaged plumbing vent caps and properly reseal the surrounding roof penetration.

RV Skylight Repair and Replacement

RV skylights and shower skylights can become cracked, brittle, or begin leaking around the perimeter.

Because the skylight creates a large opening in the roof, proper installation and sealing are especially important.

We can inspect, reseal, and replace many RV skylights.

Roof Accessory Installation

Cannons RV Repair can also install or replace many roof-mounted components, including:

  • Roof vents
  • Vent covers
  • Plumbing vent caps
  • Skylights
  • Refrigerator vents
  • Antennas
  • Selected roof-mounted accessories
  • Certain solar mounting components

Any component mounted through an RV roof can become a potential water-entry point if it is not properly installed and sealed.

RV Roof Leak Repair

If your RV roof is already leaking, the location where water appears inside the RV may not be the location where the water entered.

Water can travel through the roof structure before becoming visible on an interior ceiling or wall.

Common sources of RV roof leaks include:

  • Front cap seams
  • Rear cap seams
  • Roof vents
  • Plumbing vents
  • Skylights
  • Air conditioner openings
  • Roof edges
  • Antenna mounts
  • Damaged roofing material
  • Failed sealant
  • Previous repairs

Possible signs of an RV roof leak include:

  • Water stains
  • Ceiling discoloration
  • Soft areas
  • Bubbling wall panels
  • Dampness
  • Musty odors
  • Delamination
  • Damaged ceiling panels
  • Visible water

Identifying a roof leak early can help reduce the possibility of more extensive water damage.

RV Roof Repair or Roof Replacement?

Not every roof problem requires complete replacement.

Depending on the damage, an individual area may be repairable.

RV roof repair can include:

  • Repairing failed seams
  • Repairing damaged roofing material
  • Replacing roof vents
  • Replacing plumbing vent caps
  • Replacing skylights
  • Correcting leaking roof penetrations
  • Repairing previous roof work
  • Resealing damaged areas

However, if the roof has widespread deterioration, severe water damage, damaged decking, or structural problems, a complete RV roof replacement may be the better option.

Cannons RV Repair provides both RV roof repair and complete RV roof replacement.

RV Roofing Materials We Work With

RV manufacturers use several different types of roofing systems.

Depending on the year, make, and model of your RV, the roof may use:

  • EPDM rubber roofing
  • TPO roofing
  • Fiberglass
  • Aluminum
  • Other RV roofing systems

Different roofing materials may require different cleaners, sealants, adhesives, preparation procedures, and repair methods.

Identifying the roofing material is an important step before performing an RV Roof Reseal or repair.

Types of Recreational Vehicles We Service

Cannons RV Repair provides roof services for many types of recreational vehicles, including:

  • Class A motorhomes
  • Class B motorhomes
  • Class C motorhomes
  • Travel trailers
  • Fifth wheels
  • Toy haulers
  • Truck campers
  • Destination trailers
  • Campers

The cost of an RV roof reseal depends on several factors, including the length of the RV, roof condition, existing sealant, number of roof penetrations, preparation required, and materials used.

Providing the year, make, model, and approximate length of the RV can help us determine what may be involved.

Before and After Roof Photos

For qualifying RV roof reseal services, Cannons RV Repair can provide before-and-after photographs of the areas being repaired or resealed.

These photographs allow customers to see the condition of the roof before service and the completed work afterward.

Our family has been repairing, resealing, and replacing RV roofs since 1997.
