RV Repair at Your Storage Lot, Not a Shop Bay

Your rig lives in a storage space in Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Issaquah or Woodinville. We come to that space with the meters, parts and tools, so you skip the tow, the I-405 traffic and the three-week wait for a shop bay.

Why Eastside RVs end up in storage, and why that matters for repairs

Most Eastside neighborhoods don’t allow an RV in the driveway, so the rig sits in a covered or open storage lot for most of the year. That’s fine until something breaks. Then you’re looking at moving a 30-foot trailer through I-405, I-90 or SR-520 traffic to a shop that may not see it for weeks.

We work in the space instead. Most problems we find at Eastside storage lots come from the rig sitting, not from driving:

  • Dead batteries. LP detectors, stereo memory, a radio and the converter’s own draw will flatten a lead-acid bank in a few weeks. Batteries left flat through a cold snap often don’t come back.
  • Leaks you didn’t see. Nobody’s in the rig when it rains, so a failed roof seam or vent seal can leak for a whole season before anyone sees the stain.
  • Freeze damage. A rig that wasn’t winterized, or was only half-winterized, splits fittings, pump heads and low-point lines on the first hard freeze.
  • Generators that won’t start. Gas left in an Onan for months varnishes the carburetor and the unit surges or won’t run.
  • Rodents. Lots near greenbelts and wetlands get mice. They chew wiring harnesses and nest in furnace ducts and generator compartments.
  • Fridges and furnaces after storage. Spiders in burner tubes, weak igniters and stuck gas valves show up on the first trip of the season.

What we do at storage lots

  • Battery and 12V diagnostics: load testing, parasitic draw tracing, converter and charger checks, battery disconnects and monitoring. See RV electrical.
  • Lithium and Victron upgrades: a SmartShunt or a lithium bank with proper charging so storage stops killing batteries. See lithium conversions in Seattle.
  • Roof, seal and leak work: reseals, plus thermal imaging leak detection to find water before it rots the floor.
  • Winterizing and de-winterizing: blow-out and antifreeze, water heater bypass, freeze-damage repair. See plumbing.
  • Generator service: oil, filters, plugs, fuel problems and load testing. See generator service.
  • LP, fridge and furnace: leak testing, burner cleaning, igniter and board diagnosis. As a Dometic Professional we work on Dometic units every week. See LP gas.
  • Pre-trip checks: a once-over before the first trip of the season so nothing quits on Snoqualmie Pass. See preventive maintenance.

Before we come out: storage lot checklist

  1. Confirm your lot allows outside technicians. Most Eastside facilities do, but some want advance notice, proof of insurance or work only during office hours. Ask the office and tell us what they said.
  2. Send the facility name, address, space number and gate code along with the year, make, model and what’s wrong. Photos or a short video help.
  3. Tell us if your space has shore power. Many storage lots don’t. We plan the testing around it, so we need to know before we show up.
  4. Leave room to work. Clear access to the battery bay, generator door, water heater door and roof ladder. If your space is tight against the neighbor’s rig, ask the lot about a temporary move.
  5. Have propane in the tanks if the problem involves the fridge, furnace, water heater or stove.

You don’t have to be there if the lot lets us in. We send photos, readings and a quote before any repair starts.

Bellevue storage lot RV repair FAQ

Do I need to be at the lot during the repair?

No, as long as the facility gives us access. You get photos, readings and a quote by text before any repair work starts.

Which Eastside cities do you cover?

Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Issaquah, Sammamish, Woodinville, Bothell, Newcastle and Mercer Island, plus the rest of the Seattle area. See Bellevue and Seattle and Puget Sound.

My batteries die every winter in storage. What fixes that?

First we find out what’s drawing power. Then the fix is a proper disconnect, a maintainer if the space has power, or a lithium bank with a monitor, which holds its charge far better in storage. We’ll lay out the options and price each one.

Can you winterize at the storage lot?

Yes. We bring the compressor and antifreeze. $175 for a travel trailer and $225 for a fifth wheel or motorhome.

What if the lot doesn’t have power?

Tell us when you book. Most 12V, LP and plumbing work doesn’t need shore power, and we plan anything that does around it.
