D'd like to hear from those who have had this roof installed on their rig.
I have a 2014 fiver that I really like and intend to keep. However, I'm tired of the caulk/sealant weak points which include the transition areas around the drip rail/gutter and front/rear caps.
I live in FL not far from the original installer and have talked to him for the last several years at the Tampa RV show.
I don't have issues with my roof and have few comprises in it compared to many as far as cut outs for skylights, vents, etc.
Again, however, its the 4 corners where the front/rear caps, gutters and gutter extensions meet that seem to often need attention.
Those of you that have had this roof installed.....
Are you happy?
!00% satisfied?
How did the installed address my concerns at the 4 corners?
Thanks, Phil
We did it last August in Mesa, Az., thru APR-RV. We haven’t (obviously) been able to test the “lifetime warranty” ??. However, like yourselves, we plan on keeping the RV a long time....until we end our RV’ing life! With the research we had done, we thought that that going with the Flex Armor.....was a “no brainer”! And, much like yourself, didn’t like the continued maintenance required on all of the seams, joints, etc. Consequently....it didn’t get done as it should have. We’ve got so much to do....it’s lucky to get washed every two or three years! ??
With the “four-corners” issue, I would say, problem solved......you really don’t have the corners any longer! With the roofing material, extending over the roof edge, all the way around the unit....it has pretty much eliminated the “corners”!
Good Luck in your decision.....whatever you decide!
