In Southern California, the answer is at least once a year by a professional — plus a quick look from you after storms and before trips.
A simple schedule
- Every 12 months — professional inspection
- Every fall — before the rain season
- After storms, wind or branch strikes
- Before and after long trips
Why so often?
UV breaks down roof sealant faster here than in cooler climates. Small cracks open quietly, and water damage spreads before it shows inside.
What to look for yourself
- Cracked, peeling or separated sealant
- Tears, punctures or bubbles in the membrane
- Lifted vents, skylights or A/C gaskets
- Debris and pooling water
Book a fall inspection
A full roof inspection is free with any fall service. See free RV roof inspection.
Frequently asked questions
Can I inspect my own RV roof?

What happens if I skip roof inspections?
Small leaks can lead to rot, delamination and expensive structural repairs.
Is the inspection really free?
Yes, with any fall service.
