Mobile home roof repair is a crucial part of keeping your home in good condition. A well-kept roof prevents water damage, which can lead to the growth of mold and cause serious structural issues. Managing your roof and doing small roof repairs can prevent the need for an entire roof replacement, which can be very costly. We understand that mobile home roofs differ from those of standard homes due to their unique design and the specific standards mandated by the HUD for manufactured homes. They have a low-slope or even flat roof design that requires more attention to prevent water damage.
Mobile Home Roof Repair Products
We carry the following roof repair products:
- Plumbing Roof Vents- Available in metal and plastic, and are placed on the top of the roof to allow sewer gases and other air within the home to be released outside. Reduces the amount of moisture within the home.
- Sealants- Includes silicone, caulk, tape, and roof coating that seal leaks and create a waterproof barrier. Some sealants are also UV-resistant.
- Peel & Seal Products- Specific for low-sloping roofing, used as a way to patch or repair a crack or weak spot. Creates a watertight barrier to prevent leaks.
- Flashing- Roof vent flashing is used with roof vents to prevent water from entering the home where the roof vent is installed. Flashing in general creates a waterproof barrier and leads water away from the roof.
Time to Repair Your Mobile Home Roof?
When it is time to make mobile home roof repairs, you may notice the following:
- Water Spots- You may be experiencing a leak in your roof if you notice water spots on the walls or ceiling. Another sign to look for is pain that is peeling inside the home. These are indicators that there is moisture and dampness in the home, which is often caused by a leaky or damaged roof. Leaks such as this can often be fixed by re-sealing the roof with a roof coating. This is something that should be done every 2-3 years. We recommend one that is UV-resistant to protect the roof from deterioration due to the sun.
- Sagging Roofline- Roof inspections for mobile homes are recommended every 6 months due to the unique design of the roofs. Checking in on these weak spots early can prevent the roof from collapsiing which would lead to serious damage. A roof inspection quickly shows if you have flashing or shingles that are damaged and need to be replaced. In some cases, Peel & Seal products are used to make patches and repair leaky or weak spots and prevent more damage.
