Do something ASAP. I ordered several rolls a 4" dicor seal tape and 3 gallons of dicor metal roof sealant. I have the area covered up with a tarp right now so that it can't leak anymore. As soon as the weather is conducive I'm going to tape up all the joints a put 2 coats across the whole roofRe: Travel Trailer Roof leaks / repair questionsHere are pictures of my roof where I think it's leaking. Seam near right side of slide out. On the inside picture you can see the damage to the panel. Should I coat this entire roof after taking up all the seams and dicor sealing around all vents, etc? Or should i just seal the seams and forgo coating the roof? Travel Trailer Roof leaks / repair questionsHello. I need to travel trailer ownership and I just bought a 2015 Recreation by Design Royal 40'non park model with 2 slides. I have a couple of questions. I have a leak that I'm pretty sure is where part of the roof meets the sidewall I've been told this is a common area for leaks. I've been looking at the products to coat roofs with. the dicor specifically, the tape, caulk and roof sealant. Is this what I should be using for a metal roof? Am I going about this the right way of sealing the roof entirely to see if that fixes the leak or is there other methods? I figure if I type up all the corners role good and still the entire roof and redo all the dicor around vents what not, ill most likey cure the leak. Thoughts? Thank you very much in advance. I'm fresh out of a divorce and I'm gonna have to live in this trailer for a year or 2 woth my kids so ive got to fix this right.Re: 1st trailer... septic hookup questionsYeah, I don't know the exact size of the tank shed my trailer will be delivered at beginning of next week. I bought it from a place 2hrs away. I wenti saw it in person but didnt ask about tank capacities. Its a 40ft that sleeps 6 so i imagine its pretty big tanks. Its just me 4 nights a week and 4 kids 9 and under 3 nights a week.Re: 1st trailer... septic hookup questionsThanks guys. I plan on a PVC pipe hookup. How do you know when tanks are full? Is there a guage or you just visually check?1st trailer... septic hookup questionsHello. So I just bought my 1st trailer 2015 Royal Travel 40 ft. This is going to be my home for a couple of years as I am fresh out of a divorce and broke with ruined credit... :( Anyway, My father has 5 acres with well and septic on it and is gonna let me put this trailer there for awhile While I get back on my feet. My questions is this trailer is not a park model has a RV toilet and the tanks. When I go to hook it up to septic, How do I need to do the tank maintenance? I've heard that I should leave the Gray water open all the time but never leave black water open just let the black water out a couple times a week. But then somebody was telling me that I need to leave the Gray water filled up to flush the black water so I'm confused. My father has own several trailers but never one that was not a park model. All his have standard toilets. I got this trailer at a really good deal and its all i can afford right now so ill have to make due with a non park model. Thanks! David
