Slide gasket replacement

Soliciting recommendations on a repair facility in the SE which is experienced in slide seal/gasket replacement. We developed a leak above the kitchen sink. First time it's leaked but a 2001 coach is probably due. I "think" the problem is the gasket. Happened during a severe rain storm with high winds. We live in central MS so I'm hoping I don't have to drive to Seffner, FL to find a dependable shop.

Cant advise on a repair shop but depending on rig, the problem is usually an issue of re-caulking slide seams or screw heads vs trying to replace seals. In many cases, seals cant be replaced without removing the slide--can get very expensive......keep us posted..

Ron,
Check the top of your slide along the outside edge for screw heads that have cut through the tar tape along the joint between the top and outside flange. This is a common leak area.
