Between the red-rock sun and the occasional monsoon, southern Utah is tough on RV roofs. Even a tiny crack in sealant can let water creep in and turn your vacation into a mold remediation project. Let’s talk about how often you should inspect and reseal your roof if you camp around St. George, Hurricane, or Mesquite NV.
1. Inspect Every 90 Days
UV exposure in southern Utah is no joke. Inspect your roof and edges quarterly for cracks, blisters, or sealant that’s drying out. Check around vents, AC units, and skylights too.
2. Reseal Once a Year (minimum)
If you travel year-round or store your rig in the sun, plan a full reseal annually. If you’re a weekend camper with covered storage, you can stretch that to 18 months. But don’t push your luck—Utah’s UV index will find weak spots fast. 👉 Schedule a roof inspection →
3. Watch for Early Warning Signs
- Soft spots or sagging around AC units
- Stains on ceiling panels
- Sticky slides or musty smell after rain
If you see any of these, you already have moisture getting in. That’s your sign to call for a reseal ASAP.
4. DIY vs Mobile Pro
DIY sealant kits work for tiny touch-ups, but for full roofs we use Dicor and Eternabond for long-term flexibility and UV resistance. Plus, we save you the ladder climb. 👉 Book an RV Roof Reseal or Repair →
Final Tip
A reseal costs a fraction of the damage a leak can cause. Whether you camp in Zion Canyon or spend summers in Mesquite, keep your roof tight and your trips dry with Expedition Mobile RV Services.
