Service specs · Bulverde
Built for Bulverde owners.
Bulverde is a fleet-heavy area. The driveways are big enough for a 40-foot Class A and the shops are big enough for a 5th wheel. Add the proximity to Canyon Lake (15 minutes) and the home-hangared fleet at Bulverde Airpark, and we're routinely in Bulverde three days a week.
Owner profile. Semi-rural Hill Country ranchettes, large driveways and shops, weekend boats trailered to Canyon Lake, Class A motorhomes and 5th wheels for full-time and snowbird use, and the tight-knit Bulverde Airpark fly-in community.
A fifth wheel is a 35-foot trailer with a hump. That raised forward section over the truck bed houses the master bedroom, sometimes a half-bath, and a slide-out or two. It sits 12-13 feet off the ground at the peak, which means you need a real ladder to detail it properly — not a step stool, not a hope and a prayer. Most local detailers won't touch a fifth wheel because of the access challenge. We do. We carry the ladders, we know the seam between the cap and the sidewall is where leaks start, and we treat the kingpin and pin box area as part of the job. A fifth wheel is often a full-time home for snowbirds and full-timers; we treat it that way.

Fifth wheels protocol — Bulverde edition.
Walk-around: cap-to-sidewall seam inspection on the raised forward section (most common leak point), kingpin and pin box area, slide-out seals and mechanisms, awning, decals.
Roof inspection: TPO sealant around AC units, vent caps, antenna, refrigerator vent. Photograph anything lifting or cracking.
Pressure rinse top-down with the right ladder to reach the 12-13 ft peak of the cap.
Hand-wash with pH-neutral soap; two-bucket method.
Polish fiberglass cap and front cap with cutting compound + polish. Polish painted sidewalls separately.
Roof UV treatment with TPO-appropriate product.
Slide-out service: tops cleaned, wiper seals conditioned with proper RV slide seal conditioner, mechanisms lubricated, interior of slide cleaned where it tucks in.
Awning brush-clean with mildew remover.
Kingpin and pin box: degrease, clean, lubricate the lock mechanism. Most people forget this entirely.
External compartments: pass-through storage, battery, propane tank wipe and lubricate compartment latches.
Interior: full deep clean for full-timer rigs — kitchen with residential fridge, bathroom with shower, washer/dryer area, master bedroom, living room slides.
Final inspection from sunlight + photo record of any flagged seal issues.
What's included.
What owners always ask.
Yes — Hill Country Retreat is one of our regular resort stops in Bulverde. We bring our own water and power and work around resort rules and neighbors. Other Bulverde resorts and storage yards are also part of our route.
Yes — that's most of our fifth-wheel work. Hill Country Retreat, Buckhorn Lake, Mission Bell, Yogi Bear, Hidden Valley, BeaverCreek, every major resort across South Texas. We bring our own water and power and we don't need site hookups.
Yes — we carry a real ladder that reaches the 12-13 foot peak. We've done dozens of 40+ foot fifth wheels with steep forward caps. We do not walk on roofs that won't support a person's weight; we work from the ladder.
Yes — every slide gets the same treatment: top cleaned, wiper seal conditioned, mechanism lubricated, and the slide's interior cleaned where it retracts. Most modern fifth wheels have 3-4 slides; that's part of the standard detail.
Always. We don't reseal — that's an RV service shop's work — but we inspect every seam around AC shrouds, vents, antennas, the front cap, and the rear cap. If we find lifted or cracking sealant, you get a photo and a heads-up so you can address it before it leaks.
Yes. Full-timer rigs typically have a residential fridge and a washer/dryer combo. We clean the fridge interior, behind the fridge if accessible, the washer drum, the dryer lint trap, and the laundry-area floor. All food-safe sanitizer.
A 32-36 ft fifth wheel exterior detail runs 8-9 hours. Add full interior deep clean for a full-timer and it's 10-11 hours, often split across two days. Quote after walk-around.
Exterior-only on a 32 ft fifth wheel starts at $900. Full exterior + interior on a 38-40 ft luxury rig like a Grand Design Solitude or Heartland Bighorn runs $1,200-1,500. Add ceramic coating ($300) and full-timer's deep clean and it pushes to $1,800.
Park it. We'll handle it.
Same care, every job. We come to your Bulverde driveway, dock, hangar, or storage site.
