Duration of repairs

  • The severity of the damage to your caravan determines the ordinary length of time it will take to repair it. You will be provided with an estimate of this timeframe upon making your booking.
  • We will communicate with you during the course of your repair and monitor the estimated completion date with you.
  • Sometimes it becomes necessary to alter the original method of repair (for example if additional damage is detected upon stripping the van). This can add to the duration of repairs.
  • Caravan Fix will order your parts in advance of the repair booking date.  On occasion, it may be necessary to order additional parts during the course of the repair. Sometimes we will release your caravan back to you when parts remain on backorder but only when the part in question does not affect the safety of the caravan.
  • If your caravan requires transport this could possibly add to the length of repairs
  • We may need to transport your caravan to facilitate repairs by an alternate Caravan Fix site., for eg to a site with a specialist tradesman or equipment such as a spraypainter or chassis aligner.  This will not affect repair quality and is fully covered by our insurance.
  • The trucks used for transporting are owned and operated by Caravan Fix.

  • Why does my caravan leak?

    Unfortunately, it is common that most caravans in their lifetime will leak. Caravans are held together by many seals across multiple joins. And then there are windows, vents and other openings just waiting to introduce water into your van.  The more accessories you have, the more potential for leaks.

    Seals are not designed to be a one-off application. They have a lifespan like so many other parts. This means that all the seals in your caravan need to be regularly inspected and replaced BEFORE they fail and allow water into your caravan. How often they need to be replaced will be dictated largely by how you store, use and care for your caravan. Maintenance is the key here.

    All seals will break down due to routine road travel due to vibration and rough roads.  Caravans body parts and windows move during travel and can pull away from the body of the caravan. Seals also shrink and expand in hot and cold weather.

    Lastly, how you store your caravan will also impact on their longevity. You should expect seals on a caravan that is stored under cover to last longer than a caravan housed outside in the weather.

    Seals should be checked yearly as part of your regular service and preventative maintenance checks, as water incursion is one of the costliest repairs to undertake.
