First, check to be sure everyone is okay! Next, notify the authorities so they can come out and get all the necessary information for your insurance claim. Be sure to get the officer’s name and the incident number for your insurance adjustor. Then call your insurance adjustor. It’s crucial to document all the damage to your RV. It’s very important to take photos of the scene before anything gets moved. Take several photos from different angles and distances. This will greatly help your insurance adjuster in processing your claim. Sometimes stories change after the fact, and detailed photos can help prove who caused the accident. After that you will need to deal with getting your coach to a licensed and insured collision repair facility to determine the extent of the damage. Hopefully it is driveable, but if not, you will be glad you thought ahead and have an emergency roadside assistance policy.

Clean and inspect your awnings regularly. When it’s raining, get in the habit of periodically lowering one end a bit to allow water to run off. Water is heavy and the additional weight can damage your awnings. Always close your awnings in winds over 20 mph. Never leave your awning out unattended. Close it up every night. Use the tie-downs to prevent any sudden gusts from damaging your awning or RV. Always remember it is easier to prevent damage than it is to repair it. As a side note, some people are surprised to learn that their policy does not cover awnings, so check with your insurance provider to be sure your policy covers yours. If not, purchase the rider for it.

That sounds like delamination. The skin of your RV is a smooth fiberglass exterior wall with a styrofoam or fiberglass center, and more fiberglass to seal the center. There is adhesive between the layers, which is supposed to make them one bonded unit. This new method, developed in the early 1990s, greatly lowered the cost of building RVs and improved gas mileage with better aerodynamics. Everyone was happy until the drawbacks of the method became apparent later in the decade. Over time, moisture invades the walls and the layers begin to separate causing this wave/bubbling look. Often the first sign you will see is small blisters or bubbles forming on the sides of your coach. This should be repaired by a professional before the problem becomes much worse. The usual repair in the early stages is to remove the damaged section and replace it. If you bought the RV used and you wait till the entire side of the RV needs to be replaced, it will likely cost more to replace it than you paid for the RV, so it’s best to fix this problem early.

While you certainly can paint your RV yourself, it may not be the best idea. Painting an RV can be a long and difficult process. The RV not only has to be cleaned and checked for paint bubbling and other damage, but also at least one coat of primer needs to be applied before you begin the actual painting. The experts at Cousins RV have years of experience behind them as well as all the latest certifications. They guarantee your RV will come out looking amazing. There are many issues that a confident do-it-yourselfer can fix on an RV, but when it comes to the delicate job of painting, it’s best to leave it to the experts.

Look for cracks in the silicone. Look for wind damage. Check the roof especially. Check the windows for cracks and rock dings. All of these are issues that should be fixed soon-before they get any worse.

Check the paint for oxidation and weather damage. Is it dull looking? Keep it washed and waxed to avoid these issues.

There’s no doubt that your RV roof takes the brunt of the damage from bad weather and the baking rays of the sun. Roofs are designed to take a beating, but it’s always a good idea to keep it in the best shape possible. Your roof is likely made of rubber and should be cleaned 3-4 times a year. If you can’t see the surface of the roof because of dirt, etc., then it’s time to clean. Regular soap won’t be effective and you should only use commercial grade rubber roof soap. Once the roof is cleaned, cover it with a tarp or other covering until you are ready to use it again. You should also check the rubber roof tiles to see if the sealant is degrading. This can cause water to get into your RV. If you have sealant degradation, use a self-leveling sealer to keep it down. You can also use the sealer to fill in any cracks you may find as well.
