I have heard that there is a first rate facility in Oregon near where the Beavers were made that have a number of employees who used to build them. I never got the name of the place and I will be over on the coast later this year, and I have a few really annoying issues that seem to defy diagnosis by normal repair people.

Anyone know of the shop in question?

Thanks.

We use RV Outfitters on Boyd Acres Rd, just down the street from the old Beaver factory. It is owned and operated by Jim Sizemore who was with Beaver for years and his partner Greg Fulton, who was a wood shop supervisor for Beaver. They are excellent and reasonable. We were just there 2 weeks ago for our annual MH checkup.

Many of the former tech's at Beaver manufacture are now in business for themselves. I have used RV Outfitters and have been happy with their work. next door to RV Outfitters is a cranky craftsman named Greg Fulton. he made the cabinets in the Marquis in the late 80's and 90's. We had him do an extension to our cabinets in our 92 Marquis in 2004. You could not tell it didnt come with the coach from the factory. His craftsmanship is the best I have ever seen. You just have to be nice to his dog that he brings to work. The other outfit over there that is also quite good is Coachmasters, again guys from the factory. if you have glass issues, B&D Glass is the best. They are the only ones that can take apart your double pane windows that are fogging and reseal them. Others want to sell you all new glass because they dont know how. I would stay away from Beaver Coach Sales of oregon. I had 2 horrible, life threatening in one, situations with them. They dont have a clue what they are doing.
