Dude's RV Services

Dude's RV Services is a mobile RV repair business based in Granville, Ohio, run by Dave Hofer. It comes to you, at your driveway, storage lot, or campground, across Licking, Franklin, Knox, Delaware, Coshocton, Muskingum, Perry, and Fairfield counties. There is no shop to haul your rig to, which matters most when a slide-out is stuck or an AC quits in the heat and moving the rig is not really an option.

Dave works on electrical problems including batteries, inverters, and power systems, plumbing leaks, pumps and fixtures, winterization, furnace and AC repair, and appliances like refrigerators, water heaters, and stoves. He also lists roof inspections, leak repair, resealing, and solar system installation and upgrades. He names specific campgrounds he serves directly, including Lazy River Campground at Granville, Tree Haven Campground in Westerville, and both Buckeye Lake parks, so a traveler staying at one of those can call and just give a site number.

No hourly rate or diagnostic fee is published. The site does say "Trip charges may apply based on distance to your location," so ask about that when you call. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM, closed weekends.

Dave is NRVTA certified, a nationally recognized RV technician training program, which is worth knowing before you let someone loose on your electrical or propane systems. Google rates the business 5 stars from 11 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner in or near those central Ohio counties who wants a technician to come to the driveway or campsite instead of waiting on a shop, or a traveler parked at one of the campgrounds Dave already services.
