Frequently asked questions
How do I choose between caravan repairers in Cairns?
Compare two or three. Check they work on your make of caravan or camper, ask who will do any gas or 240-volt work on the van, and get a written quote. A business that is owner verified on Mechanics Directory has confirmed it runs the listing.
How much does a caravan service cost in Cairns?
It depends on the van's size and number of axles, and what the service covers, such as wheel bearings, brakes, gas, electrics and the fridge. Ask two or three local repairers for a written quote that lists what's checked, to see the going rate in Cairns.
Do caravan repairers need to be licensed?
Licensing depends on the work and the state. If the job involves the van's gas system or air conditioning, ask whether the work needs a gas or refrigerant licence and whether the person doing it holds one. In Queensland, ask the business which qualifications and licences apply to your job. Listings marked "Credentials listed" show a licence, accreditation or membership on the business's profile. We don't check it, so confirm it with whoever issued it.
How do I know my caravan isn't too heavy?
Check the weights on your van's compliance plate and your vehicle's towing limits, then have the loaded van weighed at a public weighbridge or by a mobile weighing service. Some businesses in this directory weigh caravans and tow vehicles.
What does "serves this area" mean?
Some businesses are based in a nearby suburb but cover this area, including mobile mechanics and towing services that come to you. On suburb pages we list businesses based in the suburb first, then the ones that say they serve it.
How do free quotes work?
Tell us about the job once. We match your request with up to 3 caravan repairers near you. A business on a paid plan here gets it with your name and contact details and can contact you directly. A business on the free plan sees the job and your suburb but not your details, so it can't contact you unless it upgrades. A business that hasn't claimed its listing sees your request only once it claims. After you send, we tell you which applies to each business. It's free and there's no obligation.
