Northeastern Tire & Auto/RV Repair
Ely tire and auto shop with 24-hour roadside service, handling RVs, trailers, and diesel pushers. Rated 4.7 from 119 reviews.
Ely is a small town on US 50 with long stretches of open country on every side, so a torn awning or a fabric that won't roll up is worth fixing before the next windstorm. Two shops here handle awning work, and both also take on A/C and fridge repairs. Neither is a mobile tech, so plan to leave the rig or wait on site.

Ely tire shop with trailer and RV parts, 7-day road service, and a 4.4 rating from 253 reviews.
The awning choices in Ely are Northeastern Tire & Auto/RV Repair and Big 8 Tire. Northeastern carries a 4.7 rating across 119 reviews, and Big 8 sits at 4.4 from 253 reviews. Both list chassis work, parts and emergency service, and Big 8 also opens weekends. That mix matters when a bent arm keeps you from retracting the awning. Ask up front whether the replacement arm or fabric is on the shelf, because a small-town order can take days to arrive.
Call ahead and describe exactly what failed: fabric tear, bent arm, broken spring, or a motor that hums but won't move. A shop can often say over the phone whether the part is stocked or ordered. Neither Ely shop lists warranty work, so if your awning is still covered, get pre-approval from the manufacturer before anyone touches it. Early spring fills service calendars quickly as travelers shake off winter, so book when you can.
Wind is the usual culprit out here. Roll the awning up before afternoon gusts, and never leave it out overnight. Check the fabric and the attachment rail after dusty drives, and rinse grit off so it doesn't grind into the seams. Small tears patch cheaply; a whole fabric swap costs more. A quick inspection each season saves the surprise of a failure far from Ely.

No. The count of mobile techs here is zero, so you will need to bring the rig to a shop or arrange a visit from out of town. Big 8 is the one open on weekends.
Across the two shops, the average rating is 4.6. Northeastern sits at 4.7 from 119 reviews, and Big 8 at 4.4 from 253 reviews.
Neither shop lists warranty work, so assume you will pay directly. Call the awning maker first and ask for pre-approval, then confirm with the shop what documentation they need before the repair starts.
