Beware RV Repair of Florida, LLC

Good info.

Yea, you say the word "insurance" and the price immediately goes through the roof and repair shops don't want to mess around fixing anything broken or damaged, they just replace everything and get a larger profit margin. You pay the same amount with your deductible, either way no difference to you. So the jack the repair with all NEW.

I hit a mail box with the fat fender of my truck a few months ago. We talked to our insurance company (got miss-information), but decided to go ahead an foot the bill ourselves, but we did go to the repair shop they recommended.

Got to the repair shop and told them I was paying cash myself and needed it fixed and would appreciate an estimate first to determine if I really had enough cash for the repair. They gave me the estimate. It was around $1200 for everything. I made the appointment for a week later for the repair.

Meanwhile, got a hold of our insurance agent then and he clarified all the confusion. Actually, we had vanishing detectable which was at $0.00 and no accidents (ever) so this did not affect the good driving status. We could get it repaired with no affect on our insurance, except the deductable would increase to $500 again and vanish $100 every year going forward again. So we decided to go ahead and use the insurance.

Met with another agent for the estimate who told us, because we already had the estimate and this was one of their preferred service centers, we didn't have to do anything. He faxed the info to the repair shop. I went by the repair shop to confirm the appointment and they already had the fax. I could tell they were a little annoyed! They HAD to honor the estimate they gave me. After all was done, I talked to my agent again. He said that was one of the lowest cost repairs he'd ever seen!

Imagine that!

Recently, strong winds lifted my awning onto the roof of my motor home. It was obvious that damage had been done to the support arms but we were still able to roll the awning up and store it preventing further damage.

Thanks for posting a 'good' review for a RV mobile Repair.

I had this same thing happen to me when a tornado touched down in the CG I was staying at.

I had the fabric replaced on site. The one thing no one checked was where the bottom of the awning arm attaches to the RV.

Months later I was getting water on the carpet by the bathroom and couldn't figure out where it was coming from.

Check where the bottom of the awning arms bolts onto the side of the MH and make sure they are not stripped and loose.

Mine sits right on the side seam and all of them are only drilled into the thin wood flooring of the coach. Barely supporting all the weight of an awning and the stress of putting it up and down on a good day let alone being ripped around from the storm.

Mine 'were' loose from the storm damage and water seeped in there into the wood and was wicked up by the carpet every time it rained.:R

6 months from now will your repair still be good?

What a dumb question! One does not know if 6 month from now we will be alive?

Good info thanks for sharing.

We lived in Fl for over 17 years and all I can say
is to be leery of any business in Fl.
More crooks than honest people were our experience
for anything you wanted done. Comparison shopping
is a must.

We have lived in Fl for 11 yrs and I havent found it to be true that there is a lot of crooked shops in our local area we live in Milton ..The shops here are very honest and forthright with you before they start repairs ,,most of them will tell you whats wrong and you can make the repairs yourself. but then agn thats just me..
