Jefferson's Overland and RV Services
RV repair shop in Yreka, CA, with mobile service and a parts shop. Rated 4.7 from 38 reviews.
A warm fridge in Yreka usually means the cooling unit quit or the propane burner needs a cleaning, and either one can cost you a week of food. Two shops here handle RV refrigerator repair, and one of them comes to you. Call before you stock up at the grocery store on Main Street, because these are small crews working a wide stretch of Siskiyou County.

RV refrigerators fail in a few familiar ways: no cooling on propane, no cooling on electric, a frosting evaporator, or a yellow residue near the burner canister that means the cooling unit is done. A shop that has seen dozens of them can often tell you on the phone which it likely is. Ask whether the replacement cooling unit or burner is in stock before you haul the rig in. Parts for older units can take days to arrive, and you do not want the trailer sitting in the yard while you wait. Most simple fixes are a one day job.
Yreka sits at the top of the Sacramento Valley, with plenty of rural addresses and campgrounds on the way to the Marble Mountains, so mobile service makes sense here. Jefferson's Overland and RV Services is the mobile name in town and also handles roof, A/C, awning and fridge work, which helps when one problem turns out to be three. If the cooling unit has to come out, a shop with a lift and a covered bay is the better call. Ask either one how they prefer to handle a fridge that needs a bench test.
Give the shop the year, make and model of the refrigerator, not just the motorhome. Snap a photo of the data plate inside the door. If you are traveling through on Interstate 5, say so and ask about same week availability, since summer is the busy stretch and the good shops fill up. Check whether the work comes with any warranty on the part and labor, and get that in writing. A quick call about parts availability saves a second trip over the Siskiyou Pass.
There are 2 listed here, and 1 of them is a mobile tech that can come to your site. Both also handle A/C and awning work, so a single visit can cover more than the fridge.
Yes, one of the 2 does mobile work. That is handy if the rig cannot easily move or you are staying at a campground outside town. Ask on the phone whether the repair needs a bench or can be done where you are parked.
The refrigerator model and serial number from the data plate, plus the year and make of the RV. Tell them whether it fails on propane, on electric, or both. That one detail points a tech toward the burner, the heating element or the cooling unit before anyone arrives.
The 2 shops average 4.8 stars. Jefferson's Overland and RV Services carries a 4.7 from 38 reviews, while RV Services shows 5.0 from a single review, so weigh that smaller sample accordingly.
