Hi Rosemary,

Welcome to the site.

I am going to move this to the repair forum. It will get the attention that it will require over there.

Hi Rosemary,

Does your roof currently have overhangs? If not, that would be an excellent way to improve the looks and function of your roof. Over hangs can solve most edge leak problems.

The most economical way to install overhangs might be the metal roof described in Mark's Mobile Home Repair Manual, which is available from the Books & Parts link above. There is also a section on how to build the overhang for that roof in the manual.

Hope this helps,
JD
