My Keystone travel trailer took some damage from the bomb cyclone (aka a fancy name for a Wind storm) after some debris fell on it. I’m looking for a reputable repair shop to fix some cracked fiberglass and possibly some roof repair/replacement.

I want it fixed right the first time. Insurance is covering the cost, so I’m not too worried about cost (within reasonable rates).

Anyone have opinions on the following outfits?
Tacoma RV
Poulsbo RV
Wescraft RV

Thanks in advance!

Definitely not Poulsbo RV. You’re way better off with an independent repair shop than a dealer. The dealers really aren’t equipped to repair damage, and their people aren’t trained for it.

Yah.  RV dealers aren't equipped for body damage.  They repair, replace, install accessories.

Check this place out if insurance is going to pay for it. Sometimes it’s even cheaper than the old tpo roof that they originally come with.

I have a buddy who had this done and was very very happy with the work , and as mentioned stay away from poulsbo rv ! Most dealers aren’t your friend when it comes to repairs. You want a shop like you stated does it correct the first time. There was a shop down in graham wa that did a fantastic job I’ll be driving that way this week I’ll see if shops still there and snap a photo

:yeah:

I second this opinion.

Good luck as the dealers are absolutely terrible but if you do find a good independent shop let the group know.

Seek repair in the eugene, or area.
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."
