Redding summers are hard on RVs, but winter is when the plumbing pays you back. Two shops in town handle winterization, and both know the drill.

RV repair shop in Redding with 4.0 stars from 262 reviews, handling roof, AC, awning and warranty work.
Within a short drive of Redding. Mobile techs on this list often cover the towns around them too.
Camping World in Anderson, CA is an RV dealer and repair shop with a 4.4-star rating from over 1,500 reviews.
Camping World RV Service in Anderson handles roof and awning repairs plus maintenance and collision work on travel trailers and motorhomes.
TowTally Camping is the small-shop option, with a 4.8 rating from 74 reviews. They do winterize, plus fridge, awning, tires and electrical, and they're open weekends, which is handy if you're prepping on a Saturday. Blue Compass RV Service Redding is the big service center, rated 4.0 from 262 reviews. They handle winterize along with roof, A/C, body, tires and windshield, and they accept warranty and insurance work. If your rig is still under warranty, start with Blue Compass and get pre-approval before any work. If you're paying out of pocket and want a quick turnaround, TowTally is worth a call. Both are in Redding, so you're not driving far either way.
A proper winterization blows out the lines, bypasses and drains the water heater, and adds antifreeze to the traps. Ask whether they pull the water heater anode to check it, and whether they fog the cylinders if you're storing long term. Redding gets frost, not deep freeze, but one hard night can crack a fitting that wasn't drained. The shops here list water heater and fridge among their services, so they can spot a failing part while they're in there. Ask if the part is in stock before you drop the rig off. A winterize that turns into a two-week wait for a water heater is a bad trade.
Neither of the two listed shops is mobile, so you'll be bringing the rig in. That's fine for winterization, which is mostly a drain-and-fill job that doesn't need much space. But if you're also chasing a roof leak or a dead A/C, a shop with a bay makes more sense. Blue Compass handles roof, A/C and body, so you can bundle the work. TowTally covers fridge, awning, tires and electrical, which is a good match if your list is smaller. Book ahead in spring and fall, when everyone else remembers their rig needs attention. A little planning beats a frozen line.
