A regionally-exclusive mobile RV service network. One certified technician per metro, accountable to that metro - so when you call A1 you reach the same person who fixed your neighbor's slide last week, not a national call center routing tickets.
Cooper grew up turning wrenches in his dad's truck-and-trailer shop in Caldwell, Idaho. Spent eight years in the dealership service bay at a regional Forest River dealer before going mobile in 2010. Quit the dealer because he was tired of customers waiting six weeks for a slide-out gear pack swap that takes 90 minutes in their driveway.
Built A1 the way he wished service had worked when he was on the customer side of the counter: one phone number, one tech, one flat price quoted before the truck rolls. No hourly creep, no escalating diagnostic surcharge, no ghost dispatcher you have never met. The truck is the shop.
Now runs the Treasure Valley Idaho region personally and partners with regionally-exclusive techs in every other A1 market. Each market has one A1 tech assigned to it, accountable for the work, with pricing, parts inventory, and warranty handling consistent across the network.
Because when an RVer in Caldwell asks Google for the best mobile RV tech, the listings sort alphabetically when there is no clear leader, and Cooper figured being first on the page beats being thirtieth on the page. That was 2010. The brand stuck. The work backed it up.
Three things separate A1 from the average mobile RV outfit you find on Craigslist or a one-tech operation working out of a garage. First, regional exclusivity - one A1 tech per metro, vetted by the founder. Second, flat-rate pricing quoted by phone before the truck rolls. Third, a written 90-day workmanship warranty that travels with you across our network if you move between A1 metros.
Flat rate, on the phone, before dispatch. You tell us what is wrong, where you are, and the make and year of the rig. We quote a single number that covers parts, labor, and the dispatch. If the tech finds work beyond the original scope, he stops, photographs it, and calls you for approval before doing anything extra. We never charge for work you did not approve. We never tack on a diagnostic fee.
Most repairs land between $150 and $850. Emergency after-hours dispatch adds $40 to $75. Major work like sub-floor replacement or full roof recoat is quoted by inspection.
Two active hubs today: Treasure Coast Florida (Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Vero Beach, Jensen Beach, Fort Pierce, Hobe Sound) and Treasure Valley Idaho (Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell, Eagle, Star). Onboarding regional A1 techs in DFW Texas, OKC Oklahoma, and several other metros - check the locations map for the latest. Nationwide partner network handles travelers between active metros.
We do not work on the chassis - engine, transmission, drivetrain, brakes, suspension, axles. That work belongs to a chassis shop with a lift and a heavy-duty tool inventory we do not carry. Generator service is maintenance only - oil, filters, plugs, coolant, air filters, fuel filters. Major generator rebuilds, install of new units, and full diagnostics go to a Cummins or Onan certified dealer. We will tell you up front when a job is outside our scope and point you to a vetted shop that does it.
Call (888) 787-3727 Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 7 PM in your local time zone, with 24/7 emergency dispatch in active metros. Or email service@a1rvrepair.com with your make, year, and what is wrong - we reply within one business hour during operating times.
