Suncoast RV Inspections

Suncoast RV Inspections is an RV inspection business based in Lutz, Florida, and it also works as a mobile RV tech. It comes to you. Its repair work goes to your campsite, storage facility or driveway, so the rig does not have to move to a shop. The business describes itself as a "Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business."

It works on electrical, plumbing, HVAC, appliances and propane, on Class A, Class B and Class C motorhomes, towables and fifth wheels, and it says it can "diagnose and repair a wide range of RV systems." When the rig will not move, a tech who comes to the campground saves a tow. Inspections are the bigger part of the business, covering pre-purchase, pre-sale and pre-warranty checks. An independent look before you buy a used RV can catch problems the seller did not mention.

Suncoast does not publish a trip fee, hourly rate or inspection price, so ask about all three when you call. Its service area is "Mileage-free service within 50 miles of Lutz, FL," and no charge beyond that is stated. It lists "Same-week appointments available," but no hours and no after-hours or emergency service, so ask about both. No warranty on repair work is stated either.

Robert, the owner, holds the RVTI Certified Level 4 Master Service Technician credential and is a Certified RV Inspector. The business also carries an RVTAA (RV Technician Association of America) badge. Robert is a retired US Marine and a former volunteer fire chief, and he has owned RVs for over 15 years. The RV Locksmith, which he also runs, is a licensed locksmith business (License #HCLOC23010) that rekeys RVs to one key.

This is a good fit for an owner within 50 miles of Lutz who wants an inspection before buying a used rig or before the manufacturer's warranty runs out, or a traveler near Lutz with an electrical, plumbing, HVAC or appliance problem who would rather the work happen where the RV is parked.
