- The fabric headliner in your RV can begin to sag in spots for various reasons, including excessive heat, humidity, and leakage. These all cause the adhesive to loosen and the fabric headliner to peel away from the ceiling. But fear not! You can fix your sagging RV headliner in a few different ways and get the inside of your vehicle looking tiptop. In this free tutorial, RV maintenance and repair expert Dave Solberg teaches you what to do when your fabric RV headliner sags because of failing adhesive.

After discussing the common causes of a headliner that’s developed a soft spot, Dave introduces a couple techniques you can utilize to fix the problem. If you’re tired of the fabric and just want to swap it out for a new material, you could go the wallboard route, but be aware of the drawbacks this entails. If you do prefer the fabric look, Dave shows you how to either strip and replace the current fabric or cut and repair it where the sag has occurred.

Should you choose the latter option, you’ll want to strip wet or worn adhesive and apply a new coat, and then pull the fabric taut to all four walls before sealing it up for good. With Dave’s help, you’ll have that sagging RV headliner tightened up and looking like new in no time!
Female here, and I absolutely love your instructions, on how to repair, and I'm thinking about buying a camper and it has this problem Thanks so much..
It would be nice to see the actual RV finished project.
Great explanation thank you.! Question is, using your solution can and will your way work if I don't cut it and instead pull the whole section down, vacuum/clean the old foam and put adhesive on the vinyl and put it back up with a sheet of 4 8 paneling and a 2x4 like you did? Would that work too?
Good verbal explanation but would have 100x better to have seen the actual step-by-step footage of the repair.
Yes you fixed the problem but I wouldn't make any new holes in the roof for peace of mind that none of the nails or staples that I put in will leak or cause problems.
I would imagine you're only going to screw into the interior luan, not make any holes into the outer shell or roof. Probably only an 1/8th inch into the backer board. I would definitely try this method prior to building an entirely new headliner from zero.
