Possibly!

We'd love to do this for you too! Please CONTACT US if you would like to be added to our list. 


Can you help me find an RV Travel Trailer?

At this time we are not able to dedicate the time and focus it takes to help clients locate and negotiate the purchase of a used RV for renovation. The market for used RVs is very active so we suggest having your finances all in order to be ready to make the purchase quickly just as soon as you find the perfect camper for your travel adventures!


Do you sell Forge and Trek original RVs out of state?

Yes, we require a deposit at the signing of the contract and allow 3 business days for customers to wire us the deposit. We do not offer financing and are unable to hold the RV if you do not already have financing arranged.


If I own my own travel trailer or RV, will you renovate it?

Yes! Client owned RV Renovations are our speciality. Forge and Trek renovation services (Gold Package) start at $28,000 for up to 24' and ~$1,000 per foot beyond that for a standard pull-behind trailer with no slides. This pricing will adjust for RVs with features including slides, excessive cabinets, ceiling renovation/update, etc..  So this is just a baseline price for a standard pull behind trailer.  We offer many upgraded packages (Platinum & Diamond) on a case - by - case basis which would love to talk through with you if interested. Please note that we only offer full Interior RV renovations and cannot jump in on a project that has already been started. If you'd like to be added to our list, contact us HERE

Do your RV’s come decorated?

Do you fix damaged RV’s?

Our agreement requires that our clients turn their RVs over to us with insurance and a certificate or letter from their local RV service shop stating that the RV is in proper livable condition.

How do you install flooring? Can you share with me how I can do it in my trailer?

Every trailer and RV is different and we cannot just give a basic tell all on how to install flooring. We tend to use specialized click-and-lock flooring. 


Where do you purchase items for the trailer renovations?
