ArmorThane 2026 estimate

Most searches for RV roof replacement near me start the same way: a brown ring on the ceiling, a seam lifting at the front cap, or a rubber roof that leaves white chalk on your hands. Before you book the first shop with an opening, work out which job your roof actually needs. A reseal, a recoat and a full replacement can all stop a leak, and they are thousands of dollars apart.

Quick answer

If the deck under the membrane is dry and solid, you may only need a reseal or recoat, about $500 to $3,000. A full replacement on a 25- to 40-foot RV runs about $4,250 to $9,200 at an independent shop or with a sprayed polyurea roof, roughly $170 to $230 per foot of box. Dealer service departments publish $7,000 to $18,000. Rotted decking adds $1,500 to $6,000. Get the roof inspected first, then compare written quotes for the same scope.

Your options

Repair, recoat or replace? Start with the deck

The membrane you can see is only half the roof. Under it sits a plywood or OSB deck, and the condition of that deck decides what you can do. Coatings stick to a sound, dry surface. They do nothing for wood that's already soft.

JobWhen it fitsWhat the shop doesTypical cost
Spot repairOne leak at a vent, skylight or seam; the rest of the roof is soundCuts out failed sealant, cleans and reseals the fixture or seamUsually priced per fixture or per hour; get it in writing

What your roof is telling you

Inspect now

Soft spots or a spongy feel

If the roof gives near the edges, vents or AC unit, water has probably reached the deck. Coating over it seals the rot in. Expect a replacement with deck repair.

Inspect soon

Ceiling or wall stains

A stain means water got past the roof at some point. It may be one failed seal or a deck that's been wet for months. Only an inspection tells you which. Our RV roof repair guide shows how to trace a leak to its source.

Inspect soon

Membrane loose, bubbled or torn

When sheet roofing lets go of the deck, a coating won't hold it down. A loose membrane usually comes off before anything new goes on.

Recoat candidate

Chalky, but dry and tight

Chalking and fine surface cracks on a membrane that's still bonded are wear, not failure. A thorough clean, reseal and coating may buy you years.

Before you climb upMany RV roofs aren't built to carry a person's weight in one spot. Check your owner's manual before you walk on it, spread your weight on a board if the manufacturer allows it, and leave probing the deck to the shop.
Sprayed roofs

What a sprayed polyurea RV roof is, and why owners pick it

Polyurea is a two-component coating. The two sides are heated and mixed at the spray gun, and they react within seconds into a tough, flexible membrane. Sprayed over a prepared roof, it forms one continuous skin with no laps and no seams to reseal every season.

ArmorThane's ArmorFlex UV is a two-component, 1:1, 100% solids elastomeric polyurea used for RV roofs. Because it goes on as a liquid, the applicator can carry it up and around vents, skylights, AC curbs and the roof edge instead of relying on strips of lap sealant at every transition.

Travel trailers and fifth wheels with different RV roof types
Rubber, TPO and fiberglass roofs all depend on sealant at seams and fixtures. A sprayed membrane covers the field, edges and curbs in one piece.
Seamless

No laps to reseal

Sheet roofs rely on sealant at every seam and fixture. A sprayed membrane bridges those transitions, so there's far less to keep an eye on.

Built to spec

Thickness you can verify

Film build is measured in mils. Ask the shop what thickness it sprays and how it checks it, and get that number on the quote.

Fast set

Less time out of service

Polyurea sets in seconds, so you aren't waiting days for coats to dry. Prep and any deck repair take most of the schedule.

Want to see how one shop lays out its choices? Highroad in Phoenix, one ArmorThane applicator, offers three levels: a Restore system that keeps a qualifying membrane in place, and tear-off systems at 100 and 200 mils, each with its own written warranty terms. Your local applicator may package things differently, which is exactly why a written scope matters.

Price check

What your RV roof should cost, by the foot

RV roofs are priced by the length of the box, so a 36-foot fifth wheel costs more than a 24-foot travel trailer for the same job. Enter your length and what the roof looks like to see the published ranges for every approach side by side.

Vetting

Six questions for any RV roof shop near you

A good shop answers these without hesitating, and puts the answers in the quote. If you're comparing two or three shops, ask all of them the same six questions so the prices mean the same thing.

  1. Will you inspect the deck before you quote?

    A price over the phone is a guess. The shop should check for soft spots and moisture around the vents, edges and AC unit, then tell you what it found.

  2. What comes off, and what goes on?

    Get the scope in plain words: membrane removed or left in place, decking replaced by the sheet or by the square foot, which coating or membrane goes on, and how thick.

  3. How do you handle vents, skylights and the AC?

    Most roof leaks start at transitions, not in the middle of the roof. Ask whether fixtures are pulled and resealed, and what goes around each curb and along the roof edge.

  4. What's the warranty, and is it transferable?

    Ask who stands behind it, what it covers (materials, labor, leaks) and what voids it. If you might sell the RV in a few years, transferability matters.

  5. Where is the work done, and for how long?

    Shop or mobile, the answer affects weather delays and overspray control. Ask for a drop-off date and a realistic finish date.

  6. Can I see roofs you've done on rigs like mine?

    Photos of finished fifth wheels, travel trailers or motorhomes, plus an owner or two you can call, tell you more than any brochure.

Walk away ifthe price comes before anyone looks at the roof, nobody mentions the deck, the plan is to coat over soft spots, or the quote is a single number with no scope behind it.

Install day

What happens when your RV goes in for a sprayed roof

Every applicator runs its own process, but a sprayed replacement usually follows the same order. Knowing it helps you ask the right questions at drop-off and spot a shortcut if someone skips a step.

  • Walk-around and inspection. You point out leaks and stains; the shop checks the deck and confirms the scope with you.
  • Strip and repair. On a tear-off, the old membrane and sealant come off. Soft decking is cut out and replaced.
  • Prep and masking. The roof is cleaned and prepared for adhesion, and the sides, windows and awnings are masked against overspray.
  • Detailing. Vents, skylights, AC curbs and edges are sealed so the membrane can wrap them cleanly.
  • Spray. Polyurea goes on in passes to the specified thickness, forming one continuous membrane.
  • Reinstall and walk-through. Fixtures go back, the shop inspects the finish with you, and you leave with the paperwork.
Mobile

They come to your RV

Handy for motorhomes and rigs that are hard to move. Weather, wind and overspray control limit when and where a crew can spray, so mobile jobs may wait for the right day.

In-shop

You bring it in

A covered bay helps with temperature, humidity and overspray, and tear-offs are easier indoors. You'll need to drop the RV off and pick it up.

FAQ

RV roof replacement questions

How much does RV roof replacement cost near me?

Most 25- to 40-foot RVs land between $4,250 and $9,200 for a full replacement at an independent shop or with a sprayed polyurea roof, about $170 to $230 per foot. Dealer service departments publish $7,000 to $18,000. Add $1,500 to $6,000 if the decking has rotted. Local labor rates move the number, so compare written quotes for the same scope.

Can I recoat my RV roof instead of replacing it?

Often, yes, if the membrane is still bonded and the deck underneath is dry and solid. A reseal or recoat runs about $500 to $3,000. If the roof has soft spots, a loose membrane or rot, coating over it only hides the problem.

How long does a sprayed polyurea RV roof take?

The spraying itself goes quickly because polyurea sets in seconds. Most of the time goes to inspection, tear-off, deck repair and detailing around fixtures. Ask the shop for a drop-off date and a finish date in writing, and allow for weather on mobile jobs.

Do RV roof shops come to me?

Some applicators work mobile and some only in a shop. Mobile service saves you a trip but depends on weather and room to control overspray. In-shop work gives more control, especially for tear-offs. Ask which the local applicator offers when you send your request.

Does RV insurance pay for a new roof?

It depends on the cause and your policy. Sudden damage, like a falling limb or hail, is often handled differently from leaks caused by age and wear. Call your insurer before work starts and ask the shop to document the damage with photos.
