Frequently Asked Questions
Can I have new accessories added to my motorhome?
Absolutely! Our Canberra service centre specialises in custom upgrades and accessory installations. Popular additions include diesel heaters, electric awnings, tow bars, solar panel systems, lithium battery upgrades, extra windows or skylights, reversing cameras, and much more.
Our experienced team will be glad to discuss your requirements, provide quotes, and complete professional installations. Just ask – we’ve been customising motorhomes since 1968!
What is involved in servicing a motorhome?
A modern motorhome is a complex collection of systems, including cupboards, cabinets, appliances powered by LPG, electric, or diesel, as well as slide-outs, self-levelling kits, plumbing, and comprehensive electrical systems.
Our services include lubricating tracks and rollers, tightening screws, nuts and bolts, checking and repairing fitment issues or faults, testing all appliances and systems, inspecting gas and electrical connections, checking water systems, and so much more.
Every motorhome is different, so we will always discuss the work to be carried out beforehand with you so you can be sure what will be done and approximately how much it will cost. We pride ourselves in providing transparent quotes and keeping you informed throughout the service process.
Can I tow with my Avida RV motorhome?
The weight rating of your final motorhome configuration will determine what and how much you can tow with your Avida motorhome. Factors include your vehicle’s Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM), payload capacity, and tow rating. One of our experienced sales consultants will be able to advise you based on your particular needs and the specific model you’re considering. We can also arrange tow bar installation if your motorhome is suitable for towing. Get in touch for an obligation-free chat: (02) 5135 7888.
How do I customise my Avida RV?
Our service and accessories team will walk you through all of the customisation options of interest to you, such as additional solar panels, lithium battery system upgrades, inverters, satellite systems, upgraded entertainment systems, external storage solutions, and other custom accessories.
We source and supply all of the parts and accessories needed for the job, and our experienced technicians fit or craft your items here in our dedicated service centre. All work is completed to the highest standards with proper certification where required.
Do you stamp my logbook
Yes! When your motorhome is serviced with us, we will stamp your logbook to ensure you have an easy reference for the work carried out in your maintenance schedule. We also provide detailed service reports outlining all work completed, parts replaced, and recommendations for future maintenance. This documentation is valuable for warranty purposes and helps maintain your motorhome’s resale value.
How long does a typical service take?
Service timeframes vary depending on the scope of work required. A standard annual service typically takes 1-2 days, while more complex repairs or custom installations may require longer. We’ll provide an estimated timeframe when you book your appointment and keep you updated if any additional work is discovered during the service. For major repairs or modifications, we can often arrange loan vehicles or accommodation assistance.
How do I schedule an appointment?
To make a service appointment and get all of your questions answered, simply give us a call on (02) 5135 7888 during business hours, or complete the booking form at the top of this page.

Yes! We welcome all motorhome brands and models to our Canberra service centre. While we specialise in Avida motorhomes, our experienced technicians are qualified to work on most major motorhome brands.
We stock a comprehensive range of parts and have established relationships with component suppliers to ensure we can service your motorhome regardless of make or model.
What payment options do you offer for service and repairs?
