Dan the RV Man

Dan the RV Man is a mobile RV maintenance and repair business serving Washington State. It comes to you: "We bring the shop to you." Its service area is "all Washington State counties west of the Cascades," with King and Pierce counties as the main areas. No base town is listed, so ask whether it can reach your driveway, storage lot or campground.

It works on Class A, Class B and Class C motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers, pop-up campers and truck campers. Its services are winterization, general maintenance, roof sealant, new unit familiarization, and repairs, replacements and upgrades. It also does awnings: "we can replace specific parts or the whole thing." Winterization matters because draining the water lines and adding antifreeze keeps a hard freeze from cracking pipes. No brands are named, so ask about your make.

The trip fee is a "flat service call fee of $100," and the hourly rate for labor is $185/hour. Mileage is $2/mile for any job outside a 20 mile radius of Graham, WA. Hours are Mon-Sun, 9am to 5pm. Payment is collected at time of service. No diagnostic fee, minimum charge or after-hours service is listed, so ask about those when you call. It will work with insurance or warranty companies by providing an estimate first. Once that is approved, you pay at service and the invoice goes to the company for reimbursement.

Dan, the owner, has worked in RV service for over 20 years and is "very proficient in diagnostics and repair of virtually any RV." Google rates it 5 stars from 16 reviews and lists it as a mechanic. No certifications, licensing or insurance are listed, so ask for proof of both before work starts. A licensed, insured tech is what protects you if a repair goes wrong.

This is a good fit for an owner in King or Pierce county who wants a published trip fee and hourly rate before booking, or for a winterization or roof sealant job. It is a weaker fit for a traveler who needs help tonight, since no after-hours service is listed. Call 253-208-4920.
