One of the drawbacks of living and traveling full time in an RV is when a repair needs to be done. Luckily, Larry is quite handy (he loves DIY projects) and does a ton of research. This time we had two out of three of our fifth wheel slides get water damage.

Where do you do a serious RV repair like water damage and slide out issues? What tools and supplies do you need? Do you need to call a mobile rv repair or take it to the RV manufacturer?

This video shows how to install an Duo Form Slide Ski to the bottoms of the slide to protect the slide from water damage and the RV floor from being marked by the slide going in and out. ; the bedroom slide was a small leak under the slide mechanism and was mostly just finding the leak and caulking). As Larry does, he goes through step by step how to do the RV repair on the slide and all the tools and materials he used (see link below for a list)

We are a married couple in our mid 50s who downsized and sold our house so we can see the sights and enjoy every day to live deliberately as full time RVers - traveling with our dog Scrappy in our Grand Design Solitude 310 GK fifth wheel.
