Good Morning All,

After lurking for quite some time, I finally registered.  I need help with my roof problem.  I have a fiberglass roof and need to replace or repair it. I have heard of a rubber type roof but am unfamiliar with it.  Can you please give me your suggestions on replacing or reparing it?  Thank you for the help.

Without a detailed examination, it would be impossible to determine a cause of action. Changing an entire roof would be expensive. Fiberglass is relatively easy to repair, especially considering the mostly flat areas. Installing a rubber membrane or elastomeric coating, would necessitate having a substantial, supporting roof underneath.

Thanks Gard,

It seems that the roof has buckled and seperated at the seam nad has caused the roof to leak into my living quarters.  I have been told that the best way to go is with the rubber type roof b ut since I am just investigating this issue, I am unfamiliar with the terminology. Thanks again.
