Mildew/mold(?) on wood under roof
Hi all – wondering if you can help me out (again).
I had a recent scrape with a Sonic roof. My Rockwood Roo 2014 had minimal damage, but it pulled up a small patch of rubber and old sealant on the rear right of the roof. When it did this, I noticed there was some black under the rubber where it looks like a little water got in. It wasn’t damp – but I tried to clean it with some LA’s totally awesome, and it wouldn’t come off.
I cleaned it up and repaired it the next day with some eternabond tape.
My question is – how long should I have let it dry out? Is that a big deal to have repaired it without letting it sit and dry for a day or two? Again – it wasn’t damp when I repaired it, but I wanted to make sure that wouldn’t cause any issues.
And also, should I be concerned about any other damage? I'm trying to determine how much maintenance (like caulking) I need to do on the roof, as well as the windows, doors, etc.
I can post pictures if that would be helpful.
Thanks in advance - as always, I really appreciate it.
