ACE Truck Service, Inc.
Heavy-duty shop off I-40 in Gallup with RV repairs, mobile service, and a 4.0 Google rating.
An awning is the first thing to go in a wind gust, and in Gallup the gusts come out of nowhere. This town sits right on I-40 where the high desert flattens out, so a torn canopy or a bent arm can turn a travel day into a parking lot afternoon. There are 2 shops here that handle RV awning repair, and both also take warranty work, which saves a fight later.
Heavy-duty shop off I-40 in Gallup with RV repairs, mobile service, and a 4.0 Google rating.
Gallup truck shop with RV repair and towing, open 24/7. Reviews mixed on pricing and service.
Gallup keeps it simple: two shops handle awning work, and both of them also do RV refrigerators, so you can get the canopy reattached and the fridge looked at on the same stop. ACE Truck Service carries a 4.0 rating across 229 reviews and offers mobile service, A/C work, and emergency help, which matters if an arm is hanging loose and you are still hooked to the truck. R G Truck Services sits at 3.1 from 173 reviews, keeps parts on hand, and opens weekends. Average rating across the pair is 3.5, so read the reviews and pick your job. Call first and ask whether the roller tube or fabric is in stock.
A mobile tech is one of the two, and that is the smart call when the awning will not retract and you cannot safely drive. They come to the campground or the truck stop and either secure the arm or pull the fabric so you can move on. For a full fabric replacement or a new roller assembly, the shop usually wins, because the job needs a lift and a helper to feed the material. Tell them the awning make and length when you book. Measure it before you call, since fabric is cut to size and a wrong number costs a second trip. Spring is when everybody wants this done, so book a few days out if you can.
Both shops do warranty work, so get pre-approval from your awning maker or extended plan before anyone touches the arm. That one phone call prevents a bill you thought was covered. Ask if the part is in stock, because a special-order roller can idle your rig for days. If the fabric is only torn at a seam and the arms are fine, a patch or restitch may hold a season. If the arm is bent, replace it, since a bent arm will tear the next canopy. And check the roof sealant while someone is up there.
There are 2 shops in Gallup that handle RV awning repair. Both also work on RV refrigerators and both accept warranty work, so you have a small but focused set of options in town.
Yes. One of the 2 shops offers mobile service, which is the better choice when the awning is stuck out or an arm is dangling and you do not want to drive. Call and describe the damage so they bring the right parts.
Both of the 2 shops do warranty work. Get pre-approval from your awning manufacturer or service plan before the repair starts. Approval first keeps the paperwork simple and tells the shop what they can bill for.
Ask whether the fabric or roller tube is in stock, since special orders can add days. Give them the awning brand and measured length. If the arm is bent, plan on a replacement rather than a patch, and ask them to check the roof sealant while the awning is off.
