Hit the Road with Confidence: Why Regular RV Servicing Matters

Owning a campervan or motorhome gives you the freedom to explore Aotearoa like no other form of travel. But freedom comes with responsibility and just like a home or car, your RV needs regular maintenance to stay safe, functional, and road-ready.


At MJs RV Service Centre, we specialise in comprehensive RV and Caravan servicing, repairs, and custom upgrades. Based in Auckland, our locally owned business is trusted by RV & Caravan enthusiasts across New Zealand.


What’s Included in a Full RV Service?


Unlike a standard car, your RV combines mechanical systems, plumbing, gas, electrics, and living features all in one. At MJs, we offer a full-service package tailored to the complexity of your vehicle.

Here’s what we check and tune:


Mechanical Systems

  • Brake checks and replacements

  • Suspension and wheel bearings

  • Tyre pressure and condition

  • Steering components and underbody integrity

Electrical Systems

  • House battery and vehicle battery testing

  • Solar panel inspection and upgrades

  • Lighting, charging ports, 12V and 240V system checks

  • Inverter and control panel functionality


Gas & Plumbing

  • Gas compliance and appliance testing (fridge, stove, heater)

  • Water pump performance and leak detection

  • Hot water systems (gas or electric)

  • Greywater and freshwater tank cleaning/checks


Interior & Fit-Out

  • Cupboard latches, drawer mechanisms, and interior fittings

  • Slide-outs, pop-tops, and awning checks

  • Floor and wall integrity

  • Sealant, silicone, and moisture testing


Exterior & Roof

  • Roof seal inspections to prevent leaks

  • Exterior wall checks for cracks, rust or damage

  • Door and window seals

  • Lighting, indicators, and reversing cameras

Optional Add-Ons: WoF pre-checks, electrical upgrades, battery replacements, and fit-out customisation.


Seasonal Maintenance: Why Winter is the Best Time


If your motorhome is taking a break over the cooler months, winter is the ideal time for servicing and upgrades. Here’s why:

  • Beat the summer rush – avoid long waits by booking now

  • Prepare for storage – winterise tanks, prevent freezing, preserve batteries

  • Fix small problems early – leaks, rust, and water damage often go unnoticed until it’s too late

  • Upgrade during downtime – install solar panels, replace appliances, or plan your next layout upgrade

We also offer pre-storage checklists and advice on how to properly shut down and protect your RV until you're ready to travel again.


Custom Fit-Outs & Upgrades


Looking to add a personal touch to your mobile home? We do more than just repairs our team is experienced in custom interior fit-outs and upgrades that enhance comfort and functionality.


Popular upgrades include:

  • Solar panel installation

  • Lithium battery systems

  • LED lighting and control panels

  • Cabinetry alterations and storage solutions

  • New kitchen appliances or plumbing reroutes

  • Bathroom conversions and toilet replacements

We’ll work with your layout, your budget, and your vision to create a fit-out that feels like home — whether you're chasing sunsets full-time or just out for the weekend.
