Hello everyone Does anyone have a caravan roof cover as opposed to a full cover.  Our van is stored under conifer trees and every time we go away we have to clean the roof, this is usually every 6 weeks. Somebody told us about roof covers and wondered if anyone has one and what are your thoughts on them.

                                      Thank You Sue

Hi Jeff,
just had a look at the site you recommended but was rather surprised how expensive they are.

I think if I was going to spend that much I would get a full cover.

There was a recent thread on UKCS asking about the same sort of caravan roof cover. Here is the link to the replies which may help.

Personally i would want it to cover the top of the windows, Protect those top seams from the worst of the weather and keep the sun off them.

I do wonder how much wind gets under them also.
