ROOF LEAKING !!!!
I had a persistent, but minor leak in the area where my bedroom television used
to be (above the breaker panel). On the roof it appeared some of the screws holding the catwalk were rusted and "wallering" in the holes. I removed all of the screws on the catwalk from the rear a/c back. I replaced them with 5/16th 1 & 1/4 " stainless lag screws, after first squirting in a dollop of Dicor (you can get it at Camping World) self leveling sealant. Still didn't stop the leak. I then replaced the screws holding down the goat rail on both sides,in the same manner from the rear a/c back. Still had a leak. Finally I replaced the screws holding the ladder to the top of the roof in the same manner. Bingo, the leak stopped. I figured the stress of climbing up and down the ladder weakened the screws and caused the leak. You might want to start there first and see if your leak stops. Water is strange in the way it will flow. Tommy Rountree |
