Hmmm. Never thought of a mobile repair guy as being able to fabricate high quality custom upholstered window valences and other such cabinetry out of the back of a van.
And carpenters don't? They bid the job and bring the materials just like any tradesman would.
BTW: Most of the reputable Mobile Repair Service's have their own RV repair shop that it has been my experience the wait to get in for service speaks for itself. They are well established and offer mobile repair along with in house service. They are not all fly by night back yard mechanics/repair. In fact I have not in 5 years ever called on one that was. Funny most of them worked in dealerships and and left because they couldn't deal with what the dealerships wanted them to do and how fast to do it irregardless of quality.
I've had high end alterations and additions put in 2 of my coaches by RV Mobile Repair shops.
Just saying most are missing out on tapping into a service that is convenient, IMHO more experienced and more competent than a worker in an RV dealership that punches out at 5:00 and could care less if your RV is finished or not and has no vested interest in doing so.
But if it rocks your boat to impress, pull up to a big RV Dealership, and drop your coach off so be it. I just thought I'd share what I had found out being on the road full time. :C
