Total RV

Total RV is a mobile RV tech and repair business based in West Palm Beach, Florida. It comes to you, working on site rather than at a shop, and covers Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Okeechobee and North Broward counties.

It works on Class A, B and C motorhomes, campers, travel trailers, fifth wheels and utility trailers. The list of systems it handles is long: electrical wiring, roof A/C repair and installation, plumbing, slide repair and maintenance, generator repair, awning repair, entry steps, batteries, roof coating and sealing, roof inspections, window rebedding, molding reseal and water damage repair. It also does accessory installs like hitches and brake boxes, interior work such as sink and shower stall replacement, detailing, gelcoat reconditioning, pre-purchase inspections, storm preparation and transport or setup. On brands it names Dometic, Duo-Therm, Americana and A&E Awnings.

No hourly rate or trip fee is published, so ask about it when you call, along with whether it will come to your campground, storage lot or driveway for your particular job.

Total RV is owned and operated by Tom Lowe, who is Dometic certified on roof air conditioners, heat pumps and Americana series refrigerators, ASE certified in refrigerant recovery and recycling, and holds a certificate from the Allen Institute for Automotive Computer Technology. Those certifications matter most for A/C and fridge failures, since a tech trained on the specific Dometic system is less likely to guess at the fix. Total RV describes itself as "a licensed and insured business servicing South Florida that offers total care for your RV, Camper, Motorhome, Travel Trailer, or Fifth Wheel." Google rates it 4.4 stars from 85 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner in South Florida who wants one tech who can handle everything from a roof reseal to a slide-out problem without hauling the rig anywhere, or a buyer who wants a pre-purchase inspection done before signing.
