GlennWest Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 After I removed my ladder I am left with 4 screw holes 4 sets. For now just dicored it. I would like a more permament repair. Any suggestions.

Lance A Lott Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Depending roof material and hole size you can get several size roofing screws with a rubber washer. If the roof is aluminum you could replace the screw with stainless keeping the steel washer and rubber. You can also just by rubber washers or o rings and ss washers and sheet metal svrews. If you do remember the ss screw brake off very easy and need a pilot hole much bigger than expected. That and your choice of sealant should take care of the problem.

GlennWest Posted June 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) Sorry, didn't make this clear. Rear cap area. Teton used a 3 piece ladder due to rear awning. Center section comes out. I removed the lower secion. I left the top section. Good hand hold to come off of straight ladder.

rynosback Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) If the rear cap is made out of fiberglass. Have the screw holes filled and then repaint. If done right, you should never know it was even there.

GlennWest Posted June 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Just use a resin?

Randyretired Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 For the roof eternabond tape and for the fiberglass either little bondo or gel coat. When I put a new ladder on our Teton I went to a fiberglass repair shop and had them mix a little jar of gel coat to match the color. Filled the old holes then sanded it down even and buffed it out. Bondo and a some touch up paint might also work. Quote Randy 2001 Volvo VNL 42 Cummins ISX Autoshift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darryl&Rita Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 With a little fiberglass to stiffen things up. Resin by itself isn't very stable as a repair.

jblscooper Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Get yourself a pkg of Marine-Tek fiberglass repair kit. this stuff was made for boats and when dry, can be drilled, sanded, etc. West Marine is a good place or Amazon.

Alie&Jim's Carrilite Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 If their screw holes, put a little caulk/dicor in the hole and put the screw back in.

Did that but don't like looks of it.
