Buying a caravan or campervan is a significant investment, so it’s crucial to know exactly what you’re getting. At Caravan Repair Otago, we offer a professional pre-purchase inspection service to give you peace of mind before committing to a purchase.
​
Our fixed-price service includes a comprehensive 40-point check, covering all the critical aspects of the caravan’s condition. From the chassis and brakes to the plumbing, electrical systems, and interior fittings, we inspect every detail to ensure the caravan is safe, functional, and free from hidden issues.
​
We’ll also check for common problems such as water damage, structural integrity, and the condition of seals, windows, and doors.
Our experienced team provides a detailed report highlighting any areas of concern, so you can make an informed decision.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer or upgrading to a new model, our pre-purchase inspections are designed to protect your investment and help you avoid unexpected repair costs.
