Pre-Purchase RV Inspection in Bakersfield, CA
You have a deposit down on a motorhome or travel trailer, and now you want someone who knows what a wet roof and a tired generator look like to give it a once-over. Bakersfield has three pre-purchase RV inspectors listed here, and each one has something different to offer. I have paid for two inspections myself and walked away from a rig because of what the report found, so I know the value of a second set of eyes before you sign.

What a pre-purchase inspection covers
A good pre-purchase inspection goes beyond a walkaround. It includes a roof check for cracks and sealant failures, moisture readings inside walls and ceilings, and a look at the chassis for rust or damage. The generator should be run under load, and all fluids should be checked or sampled. You want a written report with photos, not just a verbal summary. In Bakersfield, Beasley Inspection Services includes roof and moisture checks in their service, and Onsite Mobile Semi RV Repair covers roof, generator, and chassis. AnyTime Truck & Trailer Repair focuses on chassis. Ask for the report in writing before you pay.
Choosing an inspector in Bakersfield
There are three pre-purchase RV inspectors in Bakersfield, and all three are NRVIA certified. That certification matters because it means they have passed a training and testing program. But experience with your type of RV is just as important. If you are buying a diesel pusher, find an inspector who knows chassis and generator systems. For a travel trailer, roof and moisture checks are critical. Read reviews and ask what the report includes. I always call and ask how many inspections they have done on the model I am considering. The ratings here range from 3.0 to 4.4, so a quick phone call can help you decide.
Why you need your own inspector
Never use the seller's inspector, even if the seller offers to pay. That inspector works for the seller, not you. Your inspector should be independent and working only for you. Schedule the inspection before the deposit becomes non-refundable. If the seller resists or wants to use their own person, walk away. I did that once and later found out the rig had a delaminated roof. In Bakersfield, you have three independent options, including mobile inspectors who can come to the seller's location. That convenience is worth a lot when the RV is not movable. Get the report in your hands before you finalize anything.

What should a pre-purchase inspection report include?
A written report should include photos and notes on the roof, moisture readings, chassis condition, generator operation, and fluid analysis. It should be clear enough for you to make a decision. Ask to see a sample report before you hire an inspector.
Can I use the seller's inspector for my pre-purchase inspection?
No. Always hire your own independent inspector. The seller's inspector may have a conflict of interest. Your inspector should work only for you and provide a report you can trust. Schedule the inspection before your deposit becomes non-refundable.
