What is the proper protocol
I declined the $1300 repair, took the TT home, went topside to inspect the sealant holes. It appears there are a few soft raised “bubbles” of sealant, these can be pressed down with slight pressure, but bounce back up.
Is it proper procedure for an RV Service Center have a technician, as part of a “Complimentary Roof Inspection” dig into an otherwise intact soft spot of sealant, creating a hole in the sealant
Thanks for any advice.
Are you saying the soft spot bubbles are what they were referring to? Or did the technician make an actual hole in your sealant?
If the technician made a hole and the RV is still on their lot I would insist they repair the damage they did to your RV.
If the RV is back home with you I would be asking for a free tube of Dicor from them. (no I don't really think they will comply but it's worth asking)
If there are no holes just some bubbles I would probably just leave it alone. If you're really concerned buy a $10 tube of Dicor and slather it on.
Ultimately I would suggest you forgo the Dicor and Eternabond it. I had a leak develop in my roof which I discovered during an inspection when the rubber looked like sandpaper from mold spots underneath. If you eternabond it correctly it will probably never leak.
