Fiberglass Roof Pulling Loose at Edges

[kennersonf]

The roofs on the National RV products consists of fiberglass bonded to an underlayment of plywood. While cleaning the roof today, I notice that the fiberglass has pull away from the underlayment along the edge where it curves and meets the side walls. This is occurring along the entire edge from front to back and on both sides. I guess a better way to describe it is to say it is bubbling up along the edge's entire length. You can push down on it and it hits whatever is under it. It seems to be securely attached once the roof flattens out. I hope I've described it properly. My question: has anyone experience this and if so did you get it fixed? I'm not sure where to go to have it repaired but I'm going to start calling around on Monday. There are no cracks in it and for now, it is not leaking. Any input would be appreciated.

Fred,

Try McBrides in corona. 1-800-421-7788. They have done good things for me. Seem to be a full service business.

I have a 2005 Sea Breeze 8360. My roof feels the same as yours...unattached at the curved edges. I don't know if this is considered normal, but I'm careful not to walk even near the edge of the roof when I'm up there. I also don't have any leaks, so I've just left it alone.

Our previous Winnebago fiberglass roof (as all Winnebagos) is laid over the roof and curves down over the sides to tuck into a aluminum chanel at the top of the sidewall. There was always a hollow feel to the fiberglass right were it curved over the top edge. Once the fiberglass was tucked into the aluminum channel and caulked in place it was secure. On the Winnebago's though, the caulk would eventually fail requiring recaulking or using eternabond tape to seal that edge so the fiberglass would'nt come out.
