SAFEGUARD RV SERVICE & REPAIR

Safeguard RV Service & Repair is an RV repair shop based in Coldwater, Michigan, at 683 East Chicago Road. It works both ways. You can bring your RV to the shop, which has "easy access off of US-12" and "a safe and secure area to store your RV while in the repair process." It also comes to you, with mobile service "within 30 miles of Coldwater,Mi."

It works on water and L.P. systems, electrical systems, roofing, brakes, refrigerators, water heaters, furnaces, air conditioners, slide room repairs and awning arms and fabric, and it says it services "all makes and models." A slide-out that will not come in often cannot be moved safely, so a tech who comes to the campground or driveway can save a tow.

No trip fee, hourly rate or diagnostic fee is published, and no after-hours or emergency service is stated. Ask about the trip fee when you call 517-202-7046. The shop is open from 09:00 am to 05:00 pm and is closed on major holidays.

Its technicians are "licensed and certified," and the work runs "from annual maintenance to major overhauls." It does not name certifications, years in business or the technicians, so ask which RV training the tech holds and how long they have worked on RVs. Its inspections cover the roof, undercarriage, tires, water system, air conditioning, furnace and brakes. A written inspection before buying a used rig gives you a list of repairs to use in the price talk. Google rates it 5 stars from 34 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner within 30 miles of Coldwater who wants an inspection before buying or before a long trip, or a traveler near Coldwater with a slide-out or air conditioner that needs work.
