San Jose, CA
RV A/C Repair in San Jose, CA
San Jose summer heat is hard on an RV air conditioner, and a unit that quits on the road turns a good trip bad fast. There are 3 A/C repair shops in town, averaging 4.4 stars, and 9 more nearby if the first one is booked. All three handle roof work too, which matters because the two jobs often travel together.

Where to take a dead A/C
Leale's RV holds 4.5 stars across 102 reviews and handles roof, A/C and awning work, plus insurance, body, chassis and parts. California Camper Repair sits at 4.4 stars on 41 reviews and covers roof and A/C. Almaden RV Service & Repairs has the deepest review count at 131 and a 4.3 rating, and it's the one shop here that says it does warranty work. Call ahead and ask whether the part is on the shelf or on order. A capacitor or a fan motor can be a same-week fix; a whole new rooftop unit is a different conversation. In spring, book a week or two out.
Roof and A/C together
An A/C that drips inside usually isn't the A/C at all. The gasket under the rooftop unit shrinks, or the sealant around it cracks, and water finds the ceiling. Every shop on this list does roof work, so ask them to look at the seal while the unit is off. Same story with an awning: two of the three shops here handle awnings, and a torn fabric or a bent arm is worth fixing before it flaps on the highway. If you're handy with sealant, a yearly check on the roof saves real money. Leave the refrigerant side to the pros.
Mobile techs and timing
None of the three San Jose shops is listed as a mobile operation, so plan on dropping the rig off. If driving it in is a problem, ask when you call whether they send a tech out anyway. The 9 nearby shops give you a fallback when San Jose is stacked up, and summer is when everyone's A/C dies at once. Warranty owners should get pre-approval before work starts so the claim doesn't stall. For a shop job, expect to leave the RV for the day. Pack what you need out of it first, because getting back into a rig parked in the bay is a chore.

Questions people ask
How many RV A/C repair shops are in San Jose?
There are 3 in San Jose, with 9 more nearby. All three local shops also do roof repair, and two of them handle awnings. The average rating across the three is 4.4 stars.
Which San Jose shop does warranty work?
Almaden RV Service & Repairs is the one listed for warranty work. Get pre-approval from your warranty provider before the repair starts so the claim doesn't hold up the job. The shop also handles roof and A/C work.
Can a mobile tech come to my RV in San Jose?
None of the three shops here is listed as mobile, so plan to bring the rig in. Ask when you call whether they make house calls anyway. If not, the nearby shops are worth a look when San Jose is booked out.
Is my A/C leak really a roof problem?
Often it is. The gasket under the rooftop unit or the sealant around it fails, and water shows up on the ceiling. All three San Jose shops do roof work, so have them check the seal while the unit is off. A cheap reseal beats a stained ceiling.
