Hmm, my 2007 FS2500 is in need of roof repair. I am not happy as I thought I this was fixed via the warranty, a month after I picked it up (New)
They didnt streatch the fabric far enough to cover the front
Now I have to figure out how to repair the sag
 
Suggestions on how to fix would be very welcomed :0(

I wish you could get those pictures into Mark Warmoth's hands so he can avoid repeating these same mistakes when (or "if") he starts his new company. He had great plans, but the doofuses he had working for him killed his customers with boneheaded mistakes like that.

With as long and small as those roof supports are I doubt you could ever get all the sag out even if they were brand new Oak. You might think about reinforcing them with a piece of angle iron bolted to them.
Thats why I dont like getting on top of my trailer. There just isnt much support up there.

WOW! I have a 2005 FS30 that we purchased brand new. It's suppose to have a full walk on roof! after seeing these photo's I am a little concerned about being up there. We have had no problems with the roof yet! I wonder which location that this unit was built at? Does it shown it on the Trailer ID> It's no wonder WW (Weekend Warrior) went out of business - sad to think you spent lots of money for this trailer - only to have this happen - It's only 2 years old.
Hope things work out and you are able to repair it correctly without spending thousands on it...
Cheers

sorry to hear it. I just discovered the same problem with mine - one week after I rebuilt my ramp!!! (see here ) I did not have time to repair the roof myself (was supposed to take it on a week long trip to a family reunion, but we did luck out and get dibs on the guest house) I had to leave it with a company near my home that did a pretty good job.
I were doing it myself, I would replace all the damaged wood with pressure treated wood and the osb with exterior grade plywood. And replace every screw you take out with stainless steel screws. Also, replace the fiberglass bats with mylar backed foam boards (face the mylar up so that it reflects the heat back up and out of the trailer) Just my $0.02.

I finished the repair to my roof last Sunday. and just in time for a Thunderstorm. No Leaks yet 
I didnt want to go any further than the roof but I had to remove the front cowling and repair the top right corner.
     
The good news is, I finally put those gutter spouts on that I bought 2 years ago.

Has anyone ever thought about painting the OSB board with a good oil based paint before putting the roof material back on? I would think this would give the OSB a better waterproof coating in case of any future leaks.
