Your RV's roof plays a critical role in protecting your investment. It shields you, your passengers, and all your belongings from harsh weather and road conditions, helping ensure your home-on-wheels stays in excellent shape for the long haul. At Elite RV Roof & Collision, we know just how important roof maintenance is—and with ApexArmor Spray-On Roof, we’re raising the standard for roof protection.
Let’s walk through some of the most common issues RV owners face with their roofs, how to fix them, and which roofing materials are out there—plus what you should know before choosing one.
Common RV Roof Issues (And What to Do About Them)
One of the biggest problems we see in the shop? Roof leaks. These can develop for several reasons—age, weather damage, or even sloppy installation—and if left alone, they can lead to serious structural issues. Spotting and addressing leaks early can save you a major headache (and wallet ache) down the road.
To fix a leak, you’ll first need to track down where it’s coming from. That usually means a thorough inspection of both your roof and interior ceiling for signs of moisture or staining. Once you’ve found the source, patch it using a sealant made specifically for RV roofing systems.
Tears or punctures in your roof’s membrane are also common, especially after a hailstorm or if low-hanging branches scrape your rig. Smaller tears can often be patched with a DIY kit, but larger damage might require a more extensive repair—or better yet, an upgrade to a seamless system like ApexArmor Spray-On Roof.
