Pre-Purchase RV Inspection in Washington
Buying an RV in Washington means paying for someone else's maintenance history. I have paid for two inspections and walked away from a diesel pusher because the report showed water intrusion around the rear cap. Eleven mobile inspectors here list pre-purchase work, and all of them check for moisture. That matters in a state where a rig can sit wet for months. Get the inspection done before the deposit is final.

What a Washington inspection should cover
Every inspector listed here performs pre-purchase inspections on motorhomes and tests for leaks, propane issues, and mold. All of them check for moisture. Ask for a written report with photos of the roof, ceiling, and storage bays. A good inspector will run the generator under load, check the chassis and fluids, and note any soft spots in the floor. Washington rain finds the weak seams, so pay attention to the report's moisture readings. If the seller will not let an independent inspector on the rig, that is your answer. Never use the seller's inspector, even if the seller offers to pay.
How to schedule before you commit
Book the inspection before you hand over a deposit or sign anything. The eleven mobile inspectors on this page come to the rig, so you can meet them at the seller's location. Ratings average 3.7 across the listings, and some businesses have only a handful of reviews or none at all. Read the reviews you can find and call the inspector to ask what the report includes. A pre-purchase inspection is not a warranty. It is a snapshot of the rig on the day it was checked. Plan on a few hours for a motorhome, longer if the inspector finds something that needs a second look.
What to do with the report
A written report gives you leverage. If the moisture check shows active leaks, you can ask the seller to fix them or walk away. I walked away from one rig because the report showed water damage the seller had not mentioned. That is the point of paying for an inspection. Use the report to set your offer, not to talk yourself into a rig you already like. If the inspector flags propane or mold issues, get an estimate for the repair before you decide. The best inspectors will tell you plainly when a rig is not worth the money.

Questions people ask
How many pre-purchase RV inspectors are listed in Washington?
There are 11 mobile inspectors listed on this page. All of them perform pre-purchase inspections and check for moisture. Ratings average 3.7, and some have very few reviews, so call and ask about their experience before you book.
Do these inspectors check for leaks and mold?
Yes. The type counts show all 11 inspectors list leak, propane, and mold checks. Moisture checks are listed for all 11 as well. Ask the inspector to show you the moisture readings in the written report, especially around the roof and windows.
Should I use the seller's inspector?
No. Pay for your own inspector so the report belongs to you. A seller's inspector has an interest in the sale closing. An independent inspector will tell you what the rig needs, even if that means you walk away.
When should I schedule the inspection?
Before the deposit is final and before you sign anything. The mobile inspectors travel to the rig, so you can meet them at the seller's location. Allow a few hours for a motorhome and ask for the written report with photos before you make an offer.
