Putting A Metal Roof On A Camper

Remove the metal roof if applicable before you can install a rubber roof you ll have to take off the old one.

Putting a metal roof on a camper.

Attach the panel to the roof by drilling in self tapping screws through the metal and into the furring strip. I want to know if i pull the rubber roof off and if i could replace it with a metal roof. We are going to adhere the rubber roof in small sections roughly four foot sections until we work our way across the entire roof. The easiest way to go about this is to do a portion of the roof at a time.

Start by placing the new rubber roof roll on one end of the roof. Set the second panel next to it and overlap by one ridge. Line up the first metal panel so it overhangs the eave by about 3 4 of an inch. Install one every 12 inches up the furring strip.

Another thing to mention is that if your rv already has a rubber roof on it you won t need the shears since you won t have to remove any of the old metal roof beforehand. But it still leaked in the front.
