Your local Kingston caravan mechanic
Caravan servicing built for Kingston life.
Kingston is one of the busiest caravan and camper hubs in Southern Tasmania. With easy access to the Channel Highway, the Huon Valley and Bruny Island just a short drive away, plenty of locals keep a van ready for weekend escapes — and plenty more rely on us to keep them safely on the road.
We service caravans and trailers right across Kingston, Kingston Beach, Maranoa Heights and the wider Kingborough council area. Whether your van lives in the driveway, at a local storage yard or down at the Beach, we'll come to you and get the job done on-site.
Coastal Kingston brings its own challenges — salt air on hardware, wet winters on seals and roofs, plus the usual wear from Tasmania's mountain passes and unsealed back roads. Regular servicing keeps small issues from becoming costly ones, and our written reports mean you always know exactly where your van stands.

Kingston FAQs
Caravan servicing in Kingston — your questions
Do you service caravans in Kingston?+
Yes. Kingston is one of our most-serviced suburbs. We come to driveways across Kingston, Kingston Beach, Maranoa Heights and the surrounding Kingborough area — no need to tow your van anywhere. Whether it lives at home or in a local storage yard, we'll get the job done on-site.
How quickly can you get to Kingston from Hobart?+
Kingston is a short run down the Southern Outlet from our base, so we can usually be on-site quickly — often same-week and frequently same-day for urgent jobs. Call Rhys on 0480 879 460 and we'll let you know our next available booking for Kingston.
Do you service caravans in Kingston Beach storage yards?+
Yes. Many Kingston locals keep their caravans in nearby storage facilities rather than at home. We're happy to meet you at the yard, carry out your annual service or repairs on-site, and have your van road-ready before your next trip down the Channel or Huon.
What's the most common caravan issue you see in Kingston?+
Coastal Kingston vans tend to show the effects of salt air and Tasmania's wet winters earliest — seal degradation, roof and hatch leaks, and corrosion on brake and suspension components. Annual servicing and yearly leak detection are the best ways to catch these issues before they turn into structural repairs.
Can you do pre-purchase inspections in Kingston before a Channel or Huon trip?+
Absolutely. A pre-purchase inspection is one of the smartest things you can do before buying a used caravan. We'll come to the seller's address in Kingston (or anywhere in Greater Hobart) and provide a written condition report covering chassis, brakes, bearings, seals, water systems and more so you can buy with confidence.
Do you handle 12V and solar work on caravans in Kingston?+
Yes. We carry out approved 12V caravan electrical work, battery upgrades, DC-DC chargers and solar panel installations for Kingston caravanners heading off-grid down the Huon, Bruny Island or further south. Note we don't carry out 240V or gas work — those legally need a licensed electrician or gas fitter.
What does a Kingston caravan service cost?+
We provide upfront quoting before we come out so there are no surprises, and there's a $0 callout fee anywhere in Kingston. You only pay once the work is completed. Call or submit a quick enquiry for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your van.
Do you also repair trailers in Kingston?+
Yes. We service and repair box trailers, boat trailers, plant trailers and camper trailers in Kingston as well as single- and double-axle caravans. Brakes, bearings, lights, couplings and chassis work all handled on-site.
