Major Roof Repais Neeed/
So going camping with a friend for a couple of weeks, but when picking up his trailer yesterday it looks like there has been a bad water leak into the roof. The calking is opened up in a couple of places and he has not checked it for years .... the wood clearly is very wet (the fabric in the inside is wrinkling!) and a tap test says the rot is taking hold over a fairly wide area (couple of square feet? at least and wet far beyond that).
He is retired and so has much more time than money and if it seems feasible will try the repair himself. The unit is only a 2006 (Salem Lite 26') and he wants to salvage it if possible.
A quick on-line search show products and descriptions for replacing/patching the rubber roofs themselves, but nothing that would let us know what issues would be faced trying to replace the boards.
Any links or people with experience out there who could size up the job a little more? How are the roof boards fastened to the body etc for instance - can they just be unscrewed from the top (he says hopefully .... :)
