Have dents in the caravan wall repaired
Caravan dents occur sooner than you think. During a holiday or while in storage, a caravan can hit a post, scrape along a wall or be caught in a hailstorm. Sometimes it is a small dent in the caravan wall, sometimes several areas of damage together. Even an apparently minor spot can be annoying or require extra attention later.
Have the damage assessed before you start touching it up yourself or head off on another trip. An affiliated CaravanRepair dealer looks not only at the visible dent, but also at the wall material, the structure of the outer panel, any paint damage, cracks, profiles, sealant joints and the risk of moisture problems. This makes it clear whether it is mainly cosmetic damage or whether repair is advisable.
The cause also plays a role. A dent caused by hail sometimes calls for a different assessment than damage caused by impact, driving or manoeuvring. With multiple dents, attention is also paid to how they are spread across the wall or roof and to the accessibility of the damaged section.
