FAQs
The answer to that is ‘yes’ if you are inside your warranty period, failure to have it serviced by a NCC/AWS approved workshop will invalidate any warranties that the van came with, this also includes the water ingress warranty. This should also be carried out by an NCC/AWS approved workshop.
That said if you are outside the warranty of the vehicle, it would be your choice, you wouldn’t necessarily need a habitation check, not forgetting that you do have gas and electric onboard and both come with their dangers! Also, the issue with water ingress and the damp issues this can cause. Ultimately you could save yourself a rather large damp repair bill by catching these issues early.
We would always recommend getting the habitation service carried out annually, it also shows that you have looked after your asset when the time comes to sell, and you are not losing value when you part exchange for your new vehicle. As well as keeping yourself and loved ones safe.
For motorhomes and caravans, it costs £225.
With a caravan we give you the option of having the chassis serviced as well; for a single axel chassis it costs £80 + parts and for a twin axel chassis it costs £150 + parts.
