Yeah, I know. I have more questions than a 4 yr old on a sugar high. :-D
LOL. Questions are good.
About the global registry of mobile RV techs... :B
I can't authoritatively say there isn't one, but there isn't one.
Think of the difference between a licensed contractor and a handyman. The handyman is usually a lot more transient, maybe working through his sobriety, etc. That's not to say he isn't fair & ethical or doesn't do a good job, but he works by word of mouth and isn't necessarily always around or available when you need him.
I've got two great mobile RV techs nearby who do great work. One of them is a great guy who does incredible work and we've become good friends over time. He's my go-to guy when I need help, and he stops by to say hello just because. The problem with him though, is that the secret is out and he's in high demand. He'll go for a week without answering calls because he's busy and the calls slow him down.
I use the other guys out of necessity if my favorite guy is busy. They're busy too though, so there's no guarantee.
So if you're looking for a handy directory so you can call a guy when you need him, I don't think you'll find one.
If you're on a trip and need some help, I would first check at the office where I'm staying and see if they know anyone. If that doesn't work, look for long-term residents and see if they know anyone. Next I would call other local RV parks. I'd also try local RV storage yards, because the techs are coming and going all the time at those places.
My last resort would be to search Facebook for local RV groups and ask the local members. I found both of my techs through my local FB camping group. Our local members are pretty brutal, so the bad techs get bashed and run out of town. Consequently, the two good ones are busy every day they want to work.
