Just like any other vehicle, no matter how well you maintain your RV or how much you paid when you bought it, it will need repair at some point. Repairs can be costly, but there are several things you can do to keep your costs down and more importantly, cut down on the time spent out of service. Here are some important things you need to know about camper repair to save time and money.
Develop a Relationship with a Trusted Camper Repair Center
When you develop a relationship with Edmonton RV Service, we not only put our more than 40 years of experience to work to repair your camper as quickly as possible, we get to know your vehicle and how you use it. While this may not seem important, it can save you money and time because we strive to anticipate future repairs and advise you on matters that should be addressed before they become breakdowns or lead to more costly repairs.
Preventative Maintenance is a Budget-Saver
You’ve surely heard the saying, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” When it comes to camper repair, preventative maintenance can mean the difference between enjoying your RV for the duration of your holiday or spending time waiting around a service center due to a breakdown. Before heading out on a journey or at regular mileage intervals, it’s worth having your professionals of Edmonton RV Service perform preventative maintenance. As much as we enjoy your company, you’ll spend less time with us and more time enjoying your camper!
DIY Disasters Cost More in the Long Run
As tempting as it may be to try to save money and perform a repair yourself, it may end up costing you far more to have your camper repaired. As just one example, we had a client who tried to fix a minor plumbing leak by applying a quick-dry putty to a t-line and covering it in silicone. When the leak came back and he brought it in, we had to cut out that whole section and replace it rather than fixing the initial small leak. Unfortunately, the repair cost him a lot more than it would have originally.
