My RV Dealer tells me that it is reccomended to reseal my Fifth Wheel
every two years especially around the roof. It's a Holiday Rambler.
I don't think I ever heard this before. He wants 500.00 bucks to do it.

Is this a real reccomended practice???

Yes. I do mine myself, unless there is a reason you can't be on a ladder and
apply caulk, you can do yours. Remove the old caulk, apply the type of caulk
to the seams that HR recommends. It's a big job, but an important one, you
don't want water in the walls.
