Re: Cracked dome repair?
I have a cracked dome of about 8". When I actually got up there I noticed many fine cracks around the base also. The crack expands when dome is open. I got a friend to use a clear silicone to fill in the cracks and brush it onto the dome around the base. Well, it's pouring rain here in CA and it's dripping began this morning. I've got to get up there to see where it's coming from. My yurt is 16', Colorado Yurt and has been delightful for almost 10 years. The price to ship a replacement is very high and I had hoped this silicone would have done the job. In calling the yurt company, they advised the dome and jacket might have shifted, which I wouldn't doubt, but I'm not a yurt expert and will begin researching people who know yurts up here in the Sierra Foothills of Northern Cali. Meanwhile, I'll probably get a white tarp to cover this for the season and address the entire issue in the spring.
