Our 5yr old Lunar has damp patch on the ceiling. This is under a point on the roof where the joining strip (between the front panel and roof panel) and the awning rail meet. Poor workmanship seemed to be the manufacturing policy in the latter years of Lunar production, and this is by no means the only fault we've found. That aside, I now have the expense of dealing with this problem, and all repair shops are booked for months ahead. I consider myself a very competent DIYer so should I fix it myself? This would require the removal of the roof joining strip and awning rail halfway along the roof to a join and down to the bottom end (around 10ft), cleaning off the old sealant and re sealing/fitting. A Google search suggests that getting the rail and strip off is tricky as they will be well stuck down. Has anyone done this as a DIY job? Any tips? Your thoughts and suggestions welcome.
Thanks
