I certainly meant to imply the opposite. You really do have to stay after these these things. You MUST be proactive. Leaking seams destroy more RV's than any other single fault I would guess.

Not a RV dealer, I mean a shop that sells and services trailers like utility and cargo trailers. If you are in a rural area, check with the local AG equipment dealer. They may be willing to work on it, or can give you the name of someone as a recco.
