Why the envelope matters

Water is the most expensive problem an RV can hide

RVs flex on every mile they travel, and every roof seam, vent and window is a place for water to get in. By the time a stain or soft spot appears inside, the damage behind the wall is usually well advanced — and it is rarely covered once you own the RV.

Our certified RV inspectors examine the whole envelope, take moisture readings throughout, and map every finding with photographs so you know exactly what you are buying — or what to fix before it spreads.

Common questions

Answers before you book

What is an RV envelope inspection?

An RV envelope inspection examines the outer shell of the RV — roof, seams, sealants, caps, sidewalls, windows, doors and slide-out seals — and takes moisture readings throughout to find water intrusion and delamination before they become expensive repairs.

When should I get one?

Before buying a new or used RV, before a manufacturer or extended warranty expires, after long-term storage, after a storm or a known leak, and as a yearly check on older units.

Can you inspect at a dealer, storage yard or campground?

Yes. We come to the RV anywhere in California — dealer lots, private sellers, storage facilities and campgrounds — with the owner's or seller's permission.

What types of RVs do you inspect?

Class A, B and C motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers and truck campers.

How much does it cost?

We quote a flat fee in writing before scheduling, based on the type and length of the RV. Thermal imaging is available on request at an additional cost. Call (213) 536-9392 for details.
