About Roof Vent and Skylight Repair
Roof Vent and Skylight Repair is part of our roof and exterior work, performed entirely in-house at our Yorba Linda facility for RVs and campers. We inspect first, write a clear estimate, and document any hidden damage with photos so an insurance claim reflects the real repair rather than a thin first number.
Because we only work on RVs, vans, and trailers, roof vent and skylight repair is routine for our technicians. Reseal, membrane replacement, vents, skylights, and water damage.
EPDM, TPO, and fiberglass roofs
Most RV roofs are one of three materials: EPDM rubber, TPO, or fiberglass, and each ages differently. What they share is a single enemy, an unsealed seam or gap that lets water reach the wood underneath.
Knowing which material you have determines the right repair, the right sealant, and whether a recoat will hold or the membrane is past saving.
Recoat and reseal versus full replacement
A recoat and reseal is the least expensive roof work we do and the single best way to prevent a leak. We clean, prep, and reseal seams, vents, and edges, then apply a fresh protective coat.
When the membrane is torn, brittle, or water has already gotten through, replacement is the honest call, because coating over a failed roof just hides the problem until the repair bill is much larger.
Water intrusion and subfloor restoration
The expensive scenario is the one owners do not see: a slow leak that rots the subfloor, walls, and framing. At that point a roof job becomes a restoration job, and the cost climbs with every month it is ignored.
We open up the affected area, dry and replace the damaged structure, fix the source of the water, and rebuild, so the repair lasts instead of returning.
What affects the cost
The price of roof vent and skylight repair depends on the specifics of your vehicle and the extent of the work. The main cost drivers are:
- Roof material and overall condition
- Recoat and reseal versus full membrane replacement
- Square footage and number of vents, fans, and skylights
- Whether water has reached the subfloor or walls
- Extent of any structural and subfloor restoration
- Accessory replacement such as vents, fans, and AC shrouds
What is included
A typical job includes:
- Roof inspection and moisture check
- Seam, vent, and edge resealing
- Recoat with a fresh protective layer
- EPDM, TPO, or fiberglass membrane replacement
- Vent, fan, and skylight repair or replacement
- Water-damage and subfloor restoration where needed

Questions about roof vent and skylight repair
How do I know if my RV roof needs replacing or just resealing?
An inspection tells you fast. A sound but aging roof usually needs a recoat and reseal, while a torn, brittle, or leaking roof, or one with soft spots underneath, needs replacement. We give you a straight recommendation in writing.
How often should an RV roof be resealed?
Most roofs benefit from inspection and resealing of seams and penetrations every year, with a full recoat every few years depending on material and sun exposure. It is far cheaper than the water damage it prevents.
Can you fix water damage from a roof leak?
Yes. We restore rotted subfloor, walls, and framing, fix the source of the leak, and rebuild, all in-shop. Catching it early is the single best way to control the cost.
Do you offer mobile or on-site repair?
No. All work is performed in-shop at our Yorba Linda facility. This lets us do structural, paint, and systems work to a standard mobile service cannot match. Customers bring their vehicle to us from across Southern California.
Do you work directly with insurance companies?
Yes. We bill every major carrier direct, document hidden damage, and handle the paperwork and supplements. Collision estimates are written after inspection and insurance walk-ins are welcome.
What warranty do you offer?
A written workmanship guarantee on collision repair, a 12 month and 12,000 mile warranty on RV systems and mechanical and electrical work, and a 5 year color match and adhesion warranty on paint.
