2003 5th wheel roof

candjmc, We replaced ours ( still good on our 2004, but a preemptive strike) in summer of ‘17. We went with FlexArmor. A bit pricey....but “tough as nails”! We plan on keeping our unit for many years, and thought it was justified. There are some videos on YouTube....check it out!

I suspect it is because or your forum settings.

1. Go to "My Forums" located in the upper right corner near your name.

2. Then click on "My Preferences" located in the blue bar near the left side.

3. Then make sure that the box in front of ""show images that are part of posts" has a check mark in it.

4. Then scroll to the bottom of the page and click on " submit changes"

You should now be able to see pictures that are included in posts.
Make sure you read to the end of that thread to see the updated results of my roof project.

You can see how I did mine, including pictures, here. . Please read that thread through to the last page for updates to my situation. My trailers roof should be very similar to what you have as my trailer is just about the same age. I dont see any pictures

The rv roof you mentioned would be fine also but much more expensive. To do mine was in the neighborhood of $3500. I had an appointment with RV Flex Armor to get it done several years ago but cancelled it because of other problems. I suspect that the RV Armor will be similarly priced.

Although a 15 years old rubber roof has lasted a long time, and has not leaked a drop during that time, it is nearing the end of its' normal life and could use some help. At least that is how I looked at it. :)

I NEVER COULD SEE YOUR RV ROOF PICTURES

Hey barney I checked video of liquid roof after 3 years on you tube and it looked horrible. I suspect poor installation ect...how's yours looking and how long ago did you do it?I suspect a good 2 days of work?

I agree lyle 7500 is outrageous.
I will gain some insight over the winter months to see my best options, perhaps selling and getting newer unit,but that takes big dollars as well.

The various pro-installed roofs seem to start around 200-300/ft. This entails removing =everything= from the roof; vents, A/C, skylights, etc. Then the old membrane is stripped off. If no damage is found, then the new roof is put on and everything else put back. If there =is= damage found, then they install new roof sheeting. This is on top of the original cost. I looked into doing this on my old '04 Komfort in about 2015. Cost was about $7,500 for a 28-29' roof. 1 A/C, 2 skylights, 2 vents, 2 tank vents, reefer vent, luggage rack and 2 antennae, IIRC. Then, if there was any underlying damage, cost went up from there. I declined...
