RV MAINTENANCE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE HARD OR EXPENSIVE!
Here's a simple example of something many RV owners can learn to do themselves.
On this shorter RV, I noticed screw heads starting to show through the self-leveling roof caulk beside a skylight.
I washed the roof, let it dry, and came back with fresh self-leveling caulk.
4 tubes of caulk. About 2 hours of my time. Problem fixed.
My cost on the caulk is about $9 a tube when I buy 24 at a time. Retail can be $14+ a tube, and you can find it online for around $10 a tube.
Now think about paying a service center.
With labor rates around $150–$200 an hour, a small maintenance job can turn into a $600+ bill pretty quickly.
And that's not even counting your time getting the RV ready, driving it to the shop, dropping it off, and making another trip to pick it up.
My goal with these videos is to show RV owners that RV maintenance doesn't have to be a mystery.
There are plenty of things you can learn to inspect and maintain yourself.
Save money. Save time. Take care of your RV. And most importantly—get out there and ENJOY IT!
That's what V2GRV is all about.
