Maintenance
Taking certain preventative maintenance measures can keep your RV healthy for years to come. We’ve seen all too often the damage that can occur when proper care is not given to an RV. Here are some ways we can assist:
Winterization/De-winterization
The primary reason to winterize your RV is to protect the plumbing system from freezing. As water freezes and thaws, it expands with amazing force, destroying whatever confines it. This usually results in damaged pipes and tanks. At Tom’s RV Service & Supplies Ltd we use only premium, low-odor anti-freeze.
Caulking of Roof and Exterior Seams
Cracked or deteriorating caulking on your roof or exterior seams may allow water to enter into the ceiling and walls of your RV. This can lead to extensive damage to your RV such as wet rot, dry rot, mold, and other water damage. We recommend that you check your roof and exterior caulking twice a year (Spring and Fall) and have your RV re-sealed, as needed. At Tom’s RV Service & Supplies Ltd we offer a free roof and exterior seams inspection.
Brakes and Bearing Checks
Cracked or deteriorating caulking on your roof or exterior seams may allow water to enter into the ceiling and walls of your RV. This can lead to extensive damage to your RV such as wet rot, dry rot, mold, and other water damage. We recommend that you check your roof and exterior caulking twice a year (Spring and Fall) and have your RV re-sealed, as needed. At Tom’s RV Service & Supplies Ltd we offer a free roof and exterior seams inspection.
