How Does A Spray On Roof System Work?

February 8, 2023

When protecting your RV, one of your top priorities should be to make sure that your RV’s roof is in excellent shape. Anything less than great condition can potentially lead to water damage, mold, mildew or even structural damage if the inside of the roof begins to rot. Most, if not all RV’s have a layer of plywood in their roofs which can easily collect moisture if the roof’s sealant isn’t in good shape.

To give yourself the peace of mind that your RV’s roof is safe from danger, you should consider a spray on roofing system. Spray on roofs are dependable choices when it comes to the upkeep of your RV as they provide:

  • Instant seal over leaks and cracks
  • Convenient application process
  • Waterproof protection around your RV’s seal

Instantly Seals Leaks And Cracks

Most RVs have been given a once over with a self-leveling lap sealant on their roof’s seams and edges, and while this will hold up for a while, it’s no match against the test of time and environmental elements. Whether it’s the sun beating down, a hail storm or intermittent rainfall, over time the sealant’s effectiveness will decrease, leaving you with a new problem: how to find a roof sealant solution that will last.

With a spray on roof system, you can rest assured that any leaks and cracks that may be bare on your roof currently will be guaranteed to be sealed shut at the first application of a spray on system. Spray on solutions provide a heavy-duty, yet flexible option for keeping your RV dry and protected no matter the weather you encounter.

Convenient Application Process

One of the best benefits of a spray on roof is that it can be directly applied right over your current roofing material. If there are visible signs of damage on your roof, they will need to be repaired before starting the application process, but much less time consuming than a complete overhaul of your RV’s roof.

Before a technician begins the application process the roof will have to be cleaned and completely dry. Any leftover dirt, debris, grease or mildew will prevent the spray-on solution for setting properly. The spray-on material will be applied directly on top of the current roof and usually only requires one application layer, saving you money on time and labor costs.

Provides A Water Tight Seal

Water might seem to just slide right off of your RV, but under the surface, the effects of years worth of rain, snow and even extreme humidity can pile up. Damage might take years to rear its ugly face, but that is all the more reason to protect your investment early, before damage strikes.

When it’s time to repair or replace the roof of your RV, you want to make sure your money is going toward a roof that will be around for the long-haul. Preventing water from seeping into broken seals on your RV’s roof is a key element to protecting your RV’s well-being. That is why a spray on roof is the perfect solution, providing just the right peace of mind.
