For most owners, a full RV service once a year — plus a check before any long trip — keeps the rig reliable. Here’s what a full service covers and how to time it.
The yearly baseline
Even if you only camp a few weekends a year, seals age, batteries drain and rubber dries out. A yearly service catches those changes before they become failures.
What a full service covers
- Roof, seams, vents and slide seals
- Brakes, tires and suspension
- Engine oil, filters and fluids (motorhomes)
- Wheel bearings (towables)
- Generator service
- Batteries and charging system
- LP system leak check and appliances
- Water system, pump and water heater
- Safety detectors and extinguisher
Timing it right
- Fall — before the rain season. A great time for a roof inspection.
- Before a big trip — two to three weeks ahead, so parts can be ordered.
- After long storage — before the first trip of the season.
Book ahead
Appointments are available Monday through Friday, and Saturday appointments begin January 1, 2027. See RV repair and maintenance.
Frequently asked questions
Is once a year enough?
For most owners, yes — plus a pre-trip check. Full-timers and heavy users need more.
How long does a full service take?
Routine maintenance can often be done the same day when scheduled ahead; repairs found during the service get a written timeline.
Do you include a roof inspection?
Yes — and it’s free with any fall service.
