Well I started the roof today...removed the fridge,AC,interier lights and speakers,sky light inner and outer,bathroom fan and cover,plumbing vent covers,smoke detecter,and inside stero....covered exposed holes on roof with hardboard glued to the roof than taped for extra security.....Next i will remove the auwing and both antennas and the fridge vents....I have to admit that self leveling caulking is tough stuff...LOL Here are some pix..... http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2095974510069078750gLjxwT?vhost=rides

Good luck to you! Our 2007 Jayco needs a new roof but we're towing it to the factory to have them do it. Our dealer has such a terrible service department we won't let them touch it.

Thanks for the updates. It's an interesting thread.

WOW..... Ok so I never knew the roof was that thin and also that was some serious water damage.

Looks like you guys did a awesome job. You can fix my RV anytime!!!!

I have to admit it was a lot of work...also i had no instructions on how to do it and finding all the screws like inside the bathroom and closet walls were dificult to say the least....the reason all the water dammage is becaus the Ice dammage was in December 08 and it didnt start leaking until i took the cover off in may 09 and we camped all summer with the ceiling getting werse every week it didnt matter becaus i hade to change the hole structure.......well today i got the wiring all done and put the new rubber on the roof also finished the ends.....its getting there

Great job! We're taking the "easy" route and begin our trip to Middlebury, Indiana tomorrow to drop our unit off for a new roof.
