Protect Your RV From Water Intrusion, UV Damage & Structural Failure
Resealing the exterior body of your RV is critical to protecting your investment. Fresh sealant around trim, windows, seams, access doors, lights, and other exterior joints creates a watertight barrier that shields your RV from rain, moisture, dust, and debris.
Proper exterior resealing helps prevent water intrusion, reduces the risk of hidden rot, eliminates debris buildup, and protects against long-term structural damage. Regular resealing is one of the most effective preventative maintenance steps you can take to extend the life of your RV and avoid major repair costs later.
Why Exterior Resealing Matters
Moisture intrusion from rain, snow, road spray, condensation, and even routine washing can enter through unsealed or aged seams. Water damage is often hidden and may not be visible until rot has already spread internally.
Water intrusion can result in:
- Mold & mildew
- Structural frame failure
- Wall delamination
- Floor damage
- Electrical system corrosion
Proper caulking also improves insulation efficiency. Gaps around windows, seams, and joints allow conditioned air to escape, forcing HVAC systems to work harder. Correct sealing can improve comfort and reduce energy waste — especially for full-time RVers.
Many manufacturers do not fully seal every seam during production and recommend inspection and resealing as needed. Maintenance frequency varies but is often recommended every 30–90 days depending on usage and climate.
That is why we offer complimentary exterior evaluation and sealant inspection to help identify problems early — before they turn into costly structural repairs.

Insert Molding Replacement
Protect Your RV Seams • Prevent Water Intrusion • Maintain Structural Integrity
Insert molding is a critical component in sealing and weatherproofing your RV exterior. These screw cover moldings help keep moisture out by protecting seams along the roof edges, side walls, and the front and rear caps.
Over time, insert molding can shrink, dry out, crack, discolor, or loosen—allowing water to bypass the seal and seep behind the screw cover channel. Once water gets past this trim, it can lead to rusted fasteners, mold, mildew, hidden water intrusion, and dry rot damage to internal structural components.
Replacing worn insert molding is an essential preventative maintenance step to help avoid costly repairs down the road.
