Habitation Check


Our Motorhome Habitation Checks look after the habitation area of your motorhome. They make sure it is safe for use, pick up on any issues before they are major problems and are often a requirement to maintain your warranty. Plus habitation checks are a great addition to your service history, making your motorhome more valuable should you ever decide to sell.

Our engineer will travel to your location to provide your detailed motorhome habitation check which involves testing your gas system, appliances, electrical system, water system and provides a damp report. Our experienced engineer will also check body work, windows and doors and the floor will be checked for delamination.

Your included damp report will advise if there are any signs of damp which is usually a sign of water ingress. If high levels of damp are found it is imperative that further checks and repairs are carried out before any water ingress causes expensive damage to the structure of your caravan or motorhome. 

The Habitation check includes checks of:

  • Bodywork Interior
  • Body shell and floor, including full damp report
  • Gas supply and gas appliances
  • Water supply, waste and toilet
  • 12-volt electrical system (Habitation area only)
  • 230-volt electrical system
  • Fire and safety

Electrical Installation Condition Report


An Electrical Installation Condition Report should be carried out every 3 years and is often required by insurance companies. 

It checks the 230 volt (electric hook up) system,  testing your motorhomes wiring to ensure it is still safe and hasn't deteriorated over time, especially in areas where it is exposed or passes through any bodywork or furniture within your motorhome. 

Our engineer will use these checks and provide a report to advise if there are any issues present at the time or if there's something that might need work in the near future; allowing you to make any necessary repairs to keep your vehicle safe and to sort any small issues before they become major problems.




Gas Systems and Help for Self Builds


If you've decided to build your own campervan it can be difficult to know where to start when it comes to a gas system.

Your insurance company will likely require a gas safety certificate to prove the system has been professionally installed and complies with the current UK and European Regulations EN1949 and R67. 

That's where we come in. We can help with system design, appliance installation and provide certification upon completion.

We can also help with water tank installation and plumbing. 

Why not give us a call to discuss your project!


Refillable Gas Bottles


A superb upgrade for any motorhome or caravan, a refillable gas bottle

saves carrying heavy gas bottles, struggling to get them in and out of your gas locker. Fitted in place of an existing exchangeable gas bottle, a fill point allows you to refill your cylinder cheaply at any fuel station offering Auto Gas.

Plus, they can removed if you sell your vehicle and re-installed into your new one, making this a very cost effective and more sustainable upgrade!


Appliance Services & Repairs


Much like your gas appliances at home, your heating and hot water system should be regularly checked in line with gas safety recommendations. 

A service is a great way of knowing the condition of your appliance and can often prevent a breakdown by recommending early repairs and prolonging the life of your appliance. 

Carbon monoxide is a silent killer and your motorhome or caravan
should have a current CO alarm installed. Servicing will check seals are still effective and prevent issues of CO Poisoning.
