Most caravans benefit from professional roof detailing every 12-18 months. Caravans stored outdoors in Perth’s intense UV environment may need annual attention, while those kept under cover can extend to 18-24 months.
Yes. We work carefully around panel mounting systems and electrical connections. Solar panels themselves can be cleaned as part of the service to maintain optimal power generation.
Fibreglass and gelcoat roofs typically show the most dramatic improvement. Rubber membrane roofs also benefit significantly from proper cleaning and protection. Aluminium roofs respond well with results focused more on protection than colour restoration.
A typical roof detailing service takes 3-5 hours depending on caravan size and roof condition. Heavily oxidised roofs or those with complex fixture arrangements may require additional time.
Roof detailing focuses on cleaning and protection rather than structural repairs. While we inspect seals during the process and identify potential problem areas, actual leak repair requires specialised caravan repair services.
Regular gentle washing every few months maintains results and prevents heavy contamination buildup. Use pH-neutral cleaners and avoid abrasive brushes that can damage the protective coating.
The final price depends on the size and shape of the caravan roof, the current condition including buildup of dirt or oxidation, and the type of roof material such as fibreglass or aluminium. Access difficulty and any protective coatings required may also affect the total cost. We assess the job and provide a written quote before any work is booked.
