Why not determine what your roof is made of, then ask what other would suggest first? There is a lot of flex involved with roofs on RV's and it is a lot different than garage floors.
Checking water lines and hot water tanks is indeed important. Also checking your drain lines and the operation of dump valves.
Put a bucket under your sewage drain and see if anything is in the black tank. Then try the gray tank. Hopefully they are empty.
Pour pink water down the sink, see that it comes out the dump valve and nothing leaks. Do the same with your black system. The time to check these things is now, not after leaking all over a campground. Try it with a few buckets of water down each, check your dump hose so you know it doesn't leak. If you can get to around the base of the toilet and shower, put some paper towels around them and dump a few buckets in. Paper towels should remain dry.
Now you can test the white water tank and pump, and city connection and taps. Again, put paper towel around underneath taps and toilet valves. Leaks will be apparent. Keep us posted on your check outs.
Appreciate the advice on the water very much.
It's a TPO roof, so I think I'll just need to seal as needed from what I've read.
