Membrane punctures, sealant damage, insurance coordination.
Did a hailstorm catch you while camping? Did you return from a trip to find dents and punctures across the roof? Did a small leak appear a week after the storm hit? Hail damage sneaks up - some punctures are tiny and invisible until water finds them inside. And when water starts seeping through a compromised membrane, the problem spreads fast.
You called your insurance and they said "bring it to a repair shop." But which shop? Most RV dealers are months behind on appointments and outsource hail damage to body shops that don't understand RV roofing. General body shops won't touch RV membranes. When other companies say no, we say yes. Fiberglass Worx handles RV roof hail damage constantly. Colorado's hail season keeps us busy. We inspect the entire roof, not just the obvious spots. We photograph every dent, puncture, and sealant crack and create documentation that meets insurance adjuster standards. We coordinate directly with your adjuster so you handle the deductible and we handle everything else. We patch or replace damaged membrane sections, reseal all vents and skylights, and replace cracked vent covers. Our indoor facility ensures proper surface prep and sealant application - something parking lot repairs can't deliver in Colorado's extreme weather.

Every hail repair follows our proven 6-step process. We document everything for your insurance and fix the roof right.
Bring your RV to our shop at 7685 Dahlia Street in Commerce City. We inspect every inch of the roof - the obvious dented and punctured areas and the subtle damage that won't show up until it rains. We take measurements, note which vents, skylights, and AC units are damaged, and give you an honest assessment of scope and cost. Full-roof assessment takes time. Partial patches fail when hidden hail damage goes unrepaired.
We photograph the damage from multiple angles. We measure every dent, puncture, and sealant crack using adjuster-standard methods. We create a written scope of work that lists all damage found and all repairs needed. This documentation gets submitted to your insurance adjuster so they understand exactly what your RV needs. Clear documentation means faster approval and less back-and-forth.
We communicate directly with your adjuster. We answer questions about materials and methods. We submit our documentation and wait for approval within coverage limits and your deductible. We keep you informed every step. You don't play middleman between us and the insurance company. We handle that.
We prep the roof membrane - cleaning, light sanding, removing any loose sealant or damaged sections. If membrane punctures require patching, we identify whether a patch or full-section replacement is best. We remove cracked or displaced vent covers. If skylights are damaged, we prepare the frame for new installation. Proper prep prevents adhesion failure and early-stage leaks.
Using professional-grade EPDM or TPO patch materials and premium sealants, we repair or replace damaged sections. We reseal all vent penetrations, skylights, and AC unit bases - any place where hail cracked the existing sealant. We replace damaged vent covers with new covers that fit tight and seal properly. The entire repair gets sealed against future water entry.
We inspect every repair before you pick up your RV. We check membrane adhesion, sealant cure, cover fitment, and overall workmanship. We walk you through what was repaired, how the materials will perform, and when to check for any signs of leaks. Then we get your RV back to you in 1-3 weeks depending on damage extent.

Everything you need to know about RV roof hail damage repair at Fiberglass Worx.
In almost all cases, yes. RV insurance with comprehensive coverage covers hail damage to roofs, vents, skylights, and AC units. Check your policy to confirm comprehensive coverage and know your deductible. Once you have approval from your insurer, bring your RV in for a free estimate. We'll handle the rest.
Call your RV insurance company and report the hail damage. Take photos of dents and damage from the roof or ladder view if safe. Your insurer will send an adjuster or ask you to get repair estimates. We can provide a free estimate. Once you have written quotes, submit them to your insurer for approval. We coordinate directly with adjusters from there.
Cost depends on the extent of damage and whether vents, skylights, or membrane sections need replacement. Every hail event hits differently, which is why we assess in person. Bring your RV in for a free in-person assessment - we document everything for your insurance company. Insurance typically covers the full repair minus your deductible. Formal written quotes are charged at $175.
Most repairs are completed in 1-3 weeks from start to finish. Simple repairs with minimal damage take 1 week. Complex repairs with multiple vent replacements, skylight damage, and extensive sealant work take 2-3 weeks. That timeline includes surface prep, repair, sealant cure, and final inspection. We don't rush the sealant cure - proper curing time prevents early-stage leaks.
Hail damage isn't always visible. Small punctures in the membrane don't show from the ground. Cracks in lap sealant around vents may only be noticeable from directly above. Water doesn't leak immediately - it seeps through and travels until it finds an interior surface to drip. If hail hit your area, get a free roof inspection. Finding damage early prevents water damage inside.
Yes, absolutely. A puncture the size of a pencil point can weep water during heavy rain. Wind-driven hail at high altitude hits harder than hail at sea level - Colorado hail falls faster and penetrates deeper. Small punctures only become obvious after rain when water starts appearing inside the RV. That's why full-roof assessment matters. We find them before the damage spreads.
If hail damaged 30 percent or less of the roof surface, repair is the right move. Patch or replace the damaged sections, reseal all penetrations, and the roof is good for years. If damage exceeds 40-50 percent of the roof or if the membrane is aged and brittle, replacement may be more cost-effective than extensive patching. We assess damage and give you honest guidance on whether repair or replacement makes sense.
We work on all RV brands and all roof membrane types - EPDM rubber roofs, TPO thermoplastic roofs, reinforced PVC, and specialized coatings. Class A, Class B, Class C, travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers - any RV that got hail damage. The same 6-step assessment and repair process applies.
