Torn Roof...

We have a 28BHS and we have small areas that recently became torn by compression and then abrasion.

How to fix...best practices

Thank you in advance,

I'm interested if the experts here will recommend Eternabond.

The bad part is its so close to the edge for taping. What caused this?

I don't know crabman. Mine is very similar and a road service came out did mine in november. Still holding up. By the look of the wetness on your roof I'd be doing something real quick even if it's temporary until I got a better fix.

Definitely, then go around the edges with non-leveling Dicor or Eternacaulk. May not be really pretty, but it will save the roof..

When I was at camping world a couple a days ago I saw a repair kit made by dicor. It had a pretty large beige patch material and a tube of sealer for 47.00. That is what you may be looking for.

Dicor is what should be used.

That looks good and should do the trick. I just was not sure how much undamaged roof material he had to work with on the side but if it's like yours should work fine with a thorough cleaning then application of Eternabond.☺
