Hi winchman

welcome to the website.

First off I would ask , where is the water coming from, my guess would be the main corner seal that runs from the corner of the caravan  up and along the roof . with your caravan being the same vintage as mine  I suggest you get the roll on mastic as thats what it was built with, their are other products on the market but I found this to be the easiest and the best.

My caravan renovation project gives a step by step look at repairs. just follow the link on the front page

try any of these links to see how to do it.

Hi Michael/Al

Is it me, or is the Wizard's link 'not responding'?

Cheers,

Grub.
