We have a fairly long slide out, around 11ft. Steve has noticed a dip around the middle of it which can be seen from the outside but not inside. We did have a very small leak 2 years ago which we thought had dried out but may have made the situation worse. We are keen to get it repaired as the last thing we want is water pooling on top of the slide and then having a major leak.
We have taken it to an RV Repair shop who have said they can fix it by removing the wooden fascia and then inserting metal to reinforce the structure. They say they see this often with this length of slide. They are going to be charging close to $1,000 for this work.
Steve is considering whether or not he could do it easily himself with limited tools. He thinks it may be more complicated than it looks.
Have any of you completed a repair like this and be happy to share your methods / results?
Thank you.
