Boyer RV Center
Family-owned RV dealer and repair shop in Erie, PA, with mixed reviews on service and sales.
An awning takes a beating in Erie, between the lake wind and the sun that finally shows up in July. When the fabric tears or the arms stop locking, you want somebody who has seen that exact failure before. Around here the awning work runs through one shop, with a few others nearby covering related jobs. Book early in spring, because everybody remembers their awning the week before the first trip.

The usual failures are the ones you can see from the ground: a seam letting go, fabric fraying at the roller, an arm that sags or won't stay locked, a motor that grinds instead of rolling. Wind is the big one. If the awning was out during a gust, check the arms and the mounting brackets before you roll it back in, because a bent arm will chew the fabric every time you use it. Ask the shop whether the replacement fabric or arm is in stock. A common size can be on the shelf. An odd length means waiting on a shipment, so get the measurement off your roller tube before you call.
Boyer RV Center is the spot that handles awning work in Erie, and it also takes on A/C and fridge jobs, so a single visit can cover more than one complaint. It carries a 4.1 rating across 549 reviews, which tells you plenty of people have been through the door. The shop does warranty work, stocks parts, handles chassis work and is open weekends, which matters if your only free day is Saturday. Call with your RV's year and model and describe the awning problem plainly. Photos of the torn seam or bent arm help more than a long explanation.
There are no mobile awning techs listed in Erie itself, so plan on bringing the RV in unless you find someone who travels. Four other shops sit nearby, and some of them may take on awning jobs even if that isn't their main line. If your awning is stuck out and you can't drive, call around and ask directly. A shop that can't help may know who can. Confirm the hourly rate and whether they charge a diagnostic fee before you commit.
One shop in Erie is listed for awning repair. Four more are nearby, so you have options within driving distance if the first one is booked out.
Yes. Boyer RV Center is listed as doing warranty work, and it also handles A/C and fridge repairs, plus chassis work and parts. It is open weekends, which helps if weekdays are tight.
Not in the current listings. No mobile awning techs are shown for Erie, so plan to take the RV to a shop. If the awning is stuck out and you can't move, call shops and ask who travels.
A tear at a seam or a small hole is usually worth repairing. Fraying across the whole panel or fabric that is brittle and cracking points to replacement. Get the roller tube measurement first and ask whether the fabric is in stock.
