RV Inspections

Selling an RV? Buying an RV? We’ve got you covered! choose from one of our three RV Inspection options. If you’re just looking for a quick walk-around or a second pair of eyes, we offer onsite consulting at our regular hourly rate. And of course, we’re always happy to climb on a roof and spend 30-60 minutes evaluating your roof condition!

New-to-you RV? We’re happy to perform a Courtesy check to test basic functions, like whether appliances turn off/on, slide-outs extend/retract; whether the roof requires resealing, etc. This is a NON-COMPREHENSIVE inspection (which means some damages or failures may be missed) and it does not evaluate the state-of-health of your appliances or systems.

Repairs & Retrofits

Hello! I’m Andy, Owner/Operator of Sterling RV Services. Pleasure to meet you!

It’s 2025, and my business has grown by leaps and bounds. I still work as an advanced diagnostics technician, focusing on mobile RV service. As a former RV design & manufacturing engineer, I prefer working on complex problems that have you stumped. I enjoy explaining how things work, so I enjoy meeting my customers and solving issues on the road.

This year, I’ve expanded my business – and my crew – to also focus on expert RV roofing and repair, and I opened up a shop to meet this special need. At the risk of sounding like Icarus, we are here to become the best in the Mid-Atlantic. We look forward to earning more of your business, whether on the road or in the shop.
