Mobile RV Service Technician in Naples, FL., or anywhere else

In Naples, Fl, I just had good service by Jeff Kirkwood who owns and is the only technician at RV Mobile Medic (RVMobileMedic.com text 239-595-7567). Better to text because his voice mail often is full.

He's been in business 13 years, drives a well-stocked and equipped truck and has all of the RV technician certifications. In two hours he:

Solved my roof leak (I hope) by tightening an air conditioner/heat pump unit on the roof.

Fixed the break and turn signals cord on my Blue Ox towing system. It stopped letting the rear turn signals on my toad operate. He checked and retapped the cord, which the installer used instead of a Blue Ox cord and electrical system.

Fixed a badly installed Blue Ox base plate so that a front turn signal on my toad works again.

Explained how to use the leveling system. I wasn't deflating the air bags, and the leveling legs weren't all hitting the ground.

Checked the vent for the dryer. Clogged dryer vents have caused fires in motor homes and other RVs.

Coached me on tire pressures and getting the coach weighed so I can calculate the appropriate tire pressures on my coach.

Advised me to have not only the Oasis heating system, but also the air conditioning/heatpumps cleaned annually.

Checked to see that the central vacuum cleaner had a bag. It does and extras are under it. Many people don't know they have to put the bags in because the factories don't.

Good info! I stopped using the dealership’s service dept after a couple poor experiences. Have been using a mobile tech exclusively and couldn’t be much happier.

Found RV Specialists in the literature for Lone Star Campground. 512.259.1202
They repaired our full wall slide that had a cable at the campground. Over all we were pleased with their services.
