roof leak
We have a 2013 travel trailer with a rubber roof. During the cold winter the sealant between the rubber roof and the termination strip at the front of the camper split. The melting snow leaked into the trailer and damage bunks, dinette, ceiling and walls. The manufacturer said it is not their problem because they are not responsible for the sealants once the unit leaves their factory. The sealant was fine when I closed last fall. In the process of repairing the damage, I noticed the rubber roof goes under the siding where the roof meets the front wall. The rubber roof goes under the top edge of the siding on the front wall and extends inside the front wall about an inch. Does anyone know if this is a standard practice or a manufacturers defect? It seems like the rubber roofing should go over the front wall siding and then be covered with the termination strip.893Views0likes3Comments
