I had to trim a few tree branches from around my RV and decided to use the opportunity to take a look at the RV roof.I noticed areas on the roof that look like the outer skin is blistering.The skin (membrane) does not look cracked or otherwise compromised but I am concerned that with it not adhered to the roof it could crack or tear over time.
Although the RV is only three years old, the roof is exposed to the elements (Texas sun) year round.
Should I be concerned about this?Is so, any suggested remedies?
I believe in at least semiannual roof inspections (six minimum in your case) with the liberal use of rubber roof sealants. Have you tried any remedial measures?

No, I just discovered it Sunday afternoon.

Yes, you should be concerned. Get it fixed and inspect at least twice a year. RV roofs are not as durable as your home’s roof by a huge margin.
