McDonald RV Repair
Small RV repair shop in Gladewater, TX with a 3.8 Google rating from six reviews.
A torn awning is one of those problems that goes from annoying to expensive fast if you ignore it. In Gladewater, you have two shops that handle awning repair, and a dozen more within easy reach. I've had a fabric rip after a storm and a roller that quit retracting, so I know the difference between a patch and a full replacement. Here's what's available locally and how to get it fixed without wasting a trip.

Gladewater has two shops that list awning repair among their services. McDonald RV Repair handles both awnings and fridges and carries a 3.8-star rating from six reviews. A-plus mobile RV service is the other option, and it's a mobile tech, so they come to you. That's useful if your awning is stuck out and you can't drive. The mobile tech also does fridge work. Neither shop advertises warranty work, so if your awning is under warranty, call ahead and ask. If they can't do it, they might point you to someone who can. For a simple fabric tear, a shop can often patch it while you wait. For a bent roller tube or a bad spring, expect to leave the RV for a day or two, especially if parts have to be ordered. Ask if the part is in stock before you haul the rig over.
A mobile tech is the clear choice when the awning won't retract or is hanging loose. You don't want to drive with it flapping. A-plus mobile RV service can come to your site or driveway and either fix it there or tell you what's needed. For a full replacement or a warranty claim, a shop with a bay is usually better because they have the space and tools. McDonald RV Repair is a fixed location, so you'll need to bring the RV in. Call first to see if they can get to it same day. In spring and early summer, awning work picks up, so booking a few days ahead is smart.
A small rip can turn into a full fabric failure in one good wind. If you see the fabric separating from the roller or the arms not locking, get it looked at before your next trip. A patch kit from a hardware store can get you home, but it's not a long-term fix. And if the awning won't retract, don't force it. That's when a mobile call saves you a tow. Also check the roof sealant around the awning rail while you're up there. A leak there can rot the wall, and that's a much bigger bill than new fabric.
Two shops in Gladewater list awning repair. One is a fixed shop, McDonald RV Repair, and the other is a mobile tech, A-plus mobile RV service. There are also 12 more options within driving distance if you need a wider search.
The average rating across the two Gladewater shops is 3.8 stars. That number comes from the one shop with reviews, McDonald RV Repair, which has six reviews. The mobile tech doesn't have a rating yet.
Yes. A-plus mobile RV service is a mobile tech that lists awning repair. That's handy if your awning is stuck out or you can't drive the RV. Call ahead to confirm they can handle your specific awning type and have the parts.
Neither of the two Gladewater shops advertises warranty work. If your awning is under warranty, call first and ask. They may still be able to help or refer you to a shop that can. Get pre-approval from your warranty provider before any work starts.
