About Sebring Mobile RV Repair

Sebring Mobile RV Repair is an independently operated mobile service covering Sebring and Highlands County. We repair the house side of RVs, roofs and sealant, rooftop ACs, slide-outs, plumbing and water heaters, refrigerators, furnaces, generators, converters, and 12V electrical, at the rig, wherever it is parked.

Why we work the way we do

Highlands County is one of the oldest counties in the country by median age, and a large part of that population winters in RVs and park models. The resorts along US 27 from Avon Park through Sebring to Lake Placid, the 55+ parks on Bonnet Lake and Lake Josephine, and the fish camps around Lake Istokpoga fill from November through April, and plenty of full-timers stay through the summer. The nearest dealer service departments book out weeks in season, and most put the units they sold at the front of the line. Meanwhile, the rig that needs help is often physically committed to its spot: slides out, awning staked, a season of living set up around it.

Mobile repair is the answer to that mismatch, but the mobile-tech market has its own problems: no published prices, quotes that appear before anyone has metered anything, and vague claims about authorizations that do not hold up. We built this service around fixing those specifically.

Published prices. Trip fee $75 to $150 in the local area. Labor $125 to $190/hr, one-hour minimum, parts and tax additional. Typical job ranges for every common repair are listed on the pricing page, before you call, not after.

Diagnosis before quote. The tech tests, meters, and inspects before naming a number. A water heater that will not light gets its thermocouple checked before anyone mentions replacement. A rooftop AC that hums gets a capacitor test before anyone quotes a new unit. A converter that died in a thunderstorm gets its output measured before anyone assumes the batteries are bad too. You approve the price before work starts, every time, no exceptions. Florida’s motor vehicle repair law requires a written estimate for anything over $100, and you get one.

Honesty about what we are. Independent means not a dealer and not factory-authorized. We cannot perform manufacturer warranty work, and we will say so up front. If your component is still under warranty, check with the manufacturer first: some reimburse independent repairs, many do not, and you deserve to know which before spending money. We also do not touch engine, transmission, or chassis work; that belongs at a truck shop, and pretending otherwise wastes your trip fee.

Who does the work

Repairs are performed by experienced, insured mobile RV technicians who work these systems daily: the same lap sealant, Suburban and Atwood water heaters, Dometic and Coleman rooftop units, Norcold and Dometic refrigerators, Lippert slide mechanisms, Onan generators, and 12V converter setups found in nearly every rig on US 27. The truck stocks the parts that close most calls in one visit: fuses, sealant, capacitors, anode rods, water pumps, thermocouples, and a spare converter, because in a state that leads the country in lightning density, converters are a consumable.

We also know how to work inside the parks, which matters more than outsiders realize. Resorts have gates, visitor policies, and quiet hours. Fish camps have narrow lanes and boat trailers. We ask for your park and site number when you book, check in like any other visitor, and schedule work so your neighbors do not hear a drill at 7 a.m. In storage lots across Avon Park, Lake Placid, and Frostproof, we coordinate around gate-access hours the same way.

The seasonal reality

We will not manufacture urgency. Demand here is honestly lopsided: it surges from November through April when the winter residents are in, and thins out in summer when the parks empty. But summer is real work too: full-timers who live in Highlands County resorts through the heat, pre-rainy-season roof resealing in April and May, AC failures on occupied rigs in July, lightning-surge repairs after every big afternoon storm, and pre-season checkouts for owners flying back in November. If your job can wait for a better window, we will tell you that. If it cannot, water finding its way into a roof seam never waits, we will tell you that too.
