Mobile Caravan Repairs Across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie

If your caravan breaks down and cannot be towed safely, we offer emergency mobile call-outs across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. Common call-outs include locked or failed brakes, a hot or noisy wheel bearing, electrical faults, gas issues and water leaks.

Call 0432 089 987, tell us what is happening and where you are, and we will confirm availability and the quickest way to get you moving. Where a roadside fix is not the right answer, we will help you get the van to our workshop for a proper repair.

Getting Your Van Ready for the Next Trip

A pre-trip service is the easiest way to avoid a breakdown on the highway. We check the things that matter most on a long tow: brake adjustment and magnets, wheel bearings, tyres, suspension, the coupling and safety chains, gas fittings, lights and battery health.

Storm season in the Hunter can also leave vans with hail damage, leaks or torn awnings. If that has happened to yours, we can inspect it, prepare an itemised insurance quote with photos and handle the repair from start to finish.

Frequently Asked

Newcastle Caravan Service FAQs

Do you come to Newcastle for mobile servicing?

Routine servicing and annual safety inspections are carried out at our Taylors Beach workshop so we can use specialised hoists, torque equipment and diagnostic tools that are not practical to transport. For genuine roadside breakdowns in the Newcastle area, we do offer emergency call-out services depending on technician availability and the nature of the fault. Call 0432 089 987 to discuss your situation and we will advise the fastest solution.

How long does a full caravan service take?

A standard annual service for most caravans is completed within one business day, allowing Newcastle customers to drop off in the morning and collect in the afternoon. If additional repairs are identified during inspection, or if parts need to be ordered for older or imported models, we will provide a realistic timeframe and keep you updated. Insurance assessment and repair work typically takes longer and is quoted on a case-by-case basis.

Can you handle insurance repairs for Newcastle customers?

Yes, we manage insurance repairs for Newcastle caravan owners from initial assessment and detailed quoting through to completion and handover. We work with all major Australian insurance providers and understand the documentation they require. Our quotes include photographic evidence, itemised labour and parts breakdowns, and we can liaise directly with assessors to speed up approval and minimise your downtime.

Do you service caravans bought outside the region?

We service all makes and models regardless of where the caravan was originally purchased, including private imports and grey-market vans. Our technicians are experienced with Australian, European and Chinese manufactured caravans and carry a wide range of common parts. If you have recently bought a used caravan from outside Newcastle and want a pre-purchase or post-purchase safety inspection, we are happy to book you in.

Do you offer mobile caravan repairs in Newcastle?

Yes, for genuine breakdowns. Our mobile call-outs cover Newcastle and Lake Macquarie for faults that stop you towing safely, such as brake and bearing failures, electrical shorts, gas faults and plumbing leaks. Availability depends on the day and the job, so call 0432 089 987 first and we will tell you straight away whether we can come to you or whether a workshop visit is the faster fix. Servicing, upgrades and larger repairs are done at our Taylors Beach workshop where we have the hoists and tools to do the job properly.

How much is a caravan service for Newcastle customers?

Our annual caravan service starts from $595 for a single axle van and $695 for a dual axle van, including GST. That covers brakes, wheel bearings, suspension, chassis, seals, gas and electrical safety checks. Most services are finished in one business day, so you can drop off in the morning and be back in Newcastle with your van the same afternoon.

Which Newcastle and Lake Macquarie suburbs do you look after?

We look after caravan owners right across the Newcastle and Lake Macquarie area, including Newcastle CBD, Hamilton, Mayfield, Wickham, Stockton, Charlestown, Kotara, Cardiff, Wallsend, Maryland, Belmont and Warners Bay. If you are further out, such as Swansea, Toronto or Morisset, we are still happy to help. Just call to book a workshop drop-off.

Can you fit solar, lithium batteries or a diesel heater to my Newcastle caravan?

Yes. Our Taylors Beach workshop handles caravan solar installs from $950 fitted, lithium battery and DC-DC charger upgrades, inverters, and diesel and gas heater supply and installation. We can usually combine an upgrade with your annual service so you only make the drive once.
