01Posted labor rates
Posted labor rates
- Body and paint: $210 per hour
- Mechanical and electrical: $260 per hour
- Diagnostics, scan and programming: $285 per hour (one hour minimum, credited against an authorized repair)
- Detail: $95 per hour
An RV systems estimate covering slides, awnings, water, electrical or generator work is $150. An in depth diagnostic is one hour at $285. Both are credited against an authorized repair, so the fee comes off the invoice if you proceed.

How to read these numbers
These ranges are indicative, derived from posted labor rates and typical hour counts. They are not a quote. Final numbers come from a written estimate after teardown, when the concealed scope is actually known.
The spread inside each range is real. A fiberglass cap repair on a lightly scuffed Class C is a different job than one where the impact cracked through to the substrate and pulled the windshield frame. We scope after teardown, not before.
