Hello Shahbaz,
Looks like you already found what we have to offer for replacing the roof on your 1997 Ford Ecoline 28-foot Class C motorhome, the Alpha Systems Superflex RV Roof Membrane with Installation Kit - Gray - 40' x 9-1/2' # AL36UV. I don’t have access to a database with specs for every RV model, but based on my research, your roof is likely about 24 to 25 feet long and 8 feet wide. Getting the 40' roll is a fantastic idea since having extra material gives you some cushion for "trial and error."
Everything else (like plywood for the decking and any insulation you might need to replace) will need to come from your local hardware store.
Tech Tip: Patience is key! Take your time and don’t rush the process.
Did something happen to the roof, like a branch falling on it, or is it just due to age and weather?
