What 'Motorhome Repairs' Actually Covers at Focus RV

A motorhome is two vehicles stuck together: a base truck or van underneath (Fiat Ducato, Mercedes Sprinter, Iveco Daily) and a habitation body on top. Repairs split along the same line. Engine, gearbox, drivetrain and brakes go to a mechanical workshop. Body, water, gas, electrical, fit-out, awnings and anything inside the habitation come to us.

Focus RV does habitation repairs at our Campbellfield workshop. We are an authorised warranty agent for Winnebago, Apollo, Talvor and Thetford. We are an approved insurance repairer for Allianz, AAMI, RACV, Rentsure, CIL and AMA. For warranty-covered repairs and insurance jobs, we work directly with the manufacturer or insurer to keep the process moving.

See our caravan repairs Melbourne page for the broader repair service. This page covers what is specific to motorhomes: the issues that come up most often on motorised RVs, the warranty and insurance pathway and the FAQs motorhome owners ask.

How a Motorhome Repair Booking Works

1. Describe the Symptom, Not the Cause

Call (03) 8383 1026 and tell us what the motorhome is doing wrong. We will work out the cause. Trying to diagnose remotely usually wastes both our time.

2. Inspection & Quote

Bring the motorhome in. We diagnose the issue, quote the repair and confirm timing. For insurance jobs, we move into the insurer-quote pathway from this point.

3. Repair at the Workshop

Work is carried out at Campbellfield. Habitation repairs commonly take 1 to 5 days depending on parts availability. We update you as the job progresses.

4. Test, Sign-Off, Hand Back

Operational test of repaired systems. Roadworthy-relevant items are signed off before hand-back. Written workmanship guarantee covers our repair work.

Our Slide Out in our motorhome broke just after Christmas (a bad time to break down). Paul and his staff were amazing - going out of their way to get parts and worked overtime to see that we were back on the road ASAP. Highly recommend this company.

We wanted to convert a van into a RV, a dream to eventually travel Australia. We eventually emailed Focus RV just to see if our dream could be built. Paul worked with our ideas and some of their own suggestions and came up with a final figure. We decided on that day to start our project. Ihsan and the team are fantastic. Not only did they work within our budget, but their attention to detail and workmanship was outstanding. If anyone is thinking of a van conversion, these guys are the best. Their professionalism, advice and suggestions exceeded our expectations and nothing was impossible to achieve. Highly recommended and you will not be disappointed.
