If you want to tackle do-it-yourself RV maintenance, you’ll need the right tools. We recommend building a toolkit with the following items.
Silicone Sealant
A small hole or tear in your RV can be fixed at home. Apply a silicone sealant to seal up the hole before it becomes a bigger issue and a more expensive problem.
Slide-Out Lubricant
A key part of trailer maintenance is keeping the slide-outs in good condition. It’s common for RV slide-outs to begin experiencing problems, such as sticking. To prevent this, simply use slide-out lubricant on a regular basis.
Concrobium
Sometimes, a mold stain will appear. Concrobium can help get rid of stains caused by minor build-up.
It’s important, though, to try to identify the cause of mold growth. For example, there may be a leak somewhere in your RV that needs to be addressed.
Toilet Deodorizer
An RV’s black water tank can get clogged, which can lead to some unpleasant smells. A toilet deodorizer can help break up things causing the clog and, in turn, the smells. Keep in mind that these chemicals are harsh, so use the product sparingly.
A Toolkit
Many trailer maintenance tasks will require a basic toolkit. It should include essentials such as wire cutters, screwdrivers, a hammer, and a multi-purpose tool.
