Good Morning I got myself a 2014 Keystone outback bh312 I bought it to do some family travelling with my wife and grand children. I pull it with a 2013 silverado 3500 diesel dually . It 35 ft long and only 7500 lbs so pulling it is not an issue .. Lately I have a small problem with the roof some of the staples are pushing up and also down around the outside kitchen door I have what looks like some round small holes in the fiberglass the size of a small nail head ! I'm wondering if other RVers have the same Problem ???

Welcom, both issues you list are common. Some pictures would help us understand the severity. The "holes" in the fiberglass are most likely blisters in the gel coat. Can be caused by air bubbles or moisture when the gelcoat was new. You can fill then paint them like repairing any fiberglass.

Welcome! Some pics would help us see exactly what you/we are dealing with. My last trailer had staples backing up into the EPDM. After feeling around them and gently pushing on them (trying not to cut through the roofing material) I just cut pieces of Eternabond tape, cleaned the sections then covered them with it so they would not cut through the roof membrane and leave a hole. Worked for the 4 years before I traded it in and never got a bit worse.
