Bud's Total RV Care

Bud's Total RV Care is a mobile RV repair company based in Lavon, Texas. It comes to you, at your home, campsite or storage lot, so there is no hauling the rig to a shop.

It works on electrical, plumbing, HVAC, appliances, slide systems and water damage repair, along with holding tank cleanout and sensor cleaning, winterization, bearing and brake work, roof inspections, generator service and a pre-buy operational checkout for an owner considering a used rig. It services Suburban, Dometic, Atwood, Furrion, Onan, Forest River, Keystone, Jayco, Winnebago, Thor Motor Coach, Grand Design and Airstream equipment, and covers Northeast Texas and the Dallas metro area, including Rockwall, Wylie, Garland, Plano, McKinney, Greenville and Princeton.

The standard call-out is $75 for a visit scheduled 24 hours or more ahead, and the hourly rate is $150. Diagnostic visits start at $125, which most repairs need before a firm price is set. Emergency call-outs start at $150 and are worked out case by case, so call or text for same-day or after-hours help. A few sample prices: tank cleanout runs $125 per tank, A/C roof unit replacement starts at $450, winterization starts at $175, and a pre-buy operational checkout starts at $500.

Nick Hastings, the founder, is an Advanced Certified RV Technician with continuing education through NRVTA and Lippert, and the company is veteran-owned. It backs its work with a "100% Satisfaction Guaranteed" policy. Google rates it 5 stars from 42 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner in the Dallas metro area who wants a price before the truck pulls in, a traveler stuck at a campsite with a tank, A/C or slide problem, or someone about to buy a used rig who wants it checked out first.
