RV Slideout & Leveling System Services
There's nothing quite like that sinking feeling when you pull into your campsite at Jonathan Dickinson State Park or your storage lot off Murphy Road and your slideout just... won't move. Maybe it groans and stops halfway. Maybe the leveling jacks extend on one side but not the other. Either way, your plans are on hold until it's fixed. We've been working on every slideout and leveling system on the market for over 14 years, and we bring the tools, parts, and experience to your location. Lippert, HWH, Power Gear, Schwintek, through-frame, rack-and-pinion, cable-driven - we've seen them all and we know what fails on each one.
We service all RV slideout and leveling systems in Palm City and Martin County. Seal replacement $165-375, motor swap $325-750, jack service $225-525, full rebuild $1,100-3,200. Mobile service at your campsite, driveway, or storage lot. Call 772-271-5270.
Slideout Motor Repair
When your slideout motor strains, grinds, or goes completely silent, it needs attention. We replace failed motors, worn gear couplings, and burned-out controllers for Lippert, Power Gear, and Schwintek systems. Motor swaps typically run $325-750 depending on the unit.

Cracked, flattened, or stiffened seals are an open invitation for rain and humid Florida air. We replace wiper seals, bulb seals, and flap seals. Costs run $165-375 per slide. It's hands-down the cheapest way to prevent interior water damage.
Learn moreHydraulic Jack Service
HWH, Power Gear, and Bigfoot hydraulic systems develop leaks at the cylinder seals and hose fittings over time. We carry fluid, replacement seals, and pump components. Most jack repairs fall in the $225-525 range. We test and bleed every jack before we leave.
Learn moreElectric Leveling Repair
Lippert electric leveling jacks are standard on most travel trailers built in the last ten years. The motors, gear drives, and control boards all need periodic attention. If your auto-level isn't responding or a single jack won't extend, we diagnose it on-site.
Learn moreSchwintek System Repair
Schwintek rack-and-pinion systems from Lippert are on a huge number of newer trailers and fifth wheels. The gear racks can strip if the slide binds on debris, and the motors burn out from excessive resistance. We replace gears, motors, and sync controllers.
Learn moreThrough-Frame Jack Service
Heavy-duty through-frame systems use steel rails that pass through the RV's main frame. Cables fray, rails corrode (especially near the coast), and gearboxes wear down. We adjust, lubricate, and repair these on-site. Full cable replacement runs $425-850.

Slideout & Leveling Issues We Fix Every Week
Slideout Won't Move at All
This one keeps our phone ringing. Before anything else, check your house battery voltage. Slideout motors pull serious amperage, and if your batteries have dropped below 11.5 volts, the motor simply won't have the power to budge the slide. If the voltage is good and you hear a click but nothing happens, it's typically a bad relay, a blown 40-amp fuse, or a motor that's given up. We carry replacements for all of these and can usually fix it the same day you call.
Slide Moves Slowly or Unevenly
When one side extends faster than the other, something is binding or one motor is weaker than its partner. On Schwintek units, debris in the gear track is the usual culprit. On cable-driven systems, a frayed cable creates drag. We clean the tracks, test both drive motors independently, and re-sync the system. If you let this go, the slide will eventually jam completely, and that's a bigger repair bill.
Rain Leaking Around the Slideout
Nine out of ten slideout leaks come from degraded seals. The wiper seals across the top and the bulb seals along the sides harden and crack from Martin County's relentless UV exposure. Once they lose their flexibility, gaps form and water finds its way inside. We also inspect the slide topper awning fabric, because a torn or sagging topper pools rainwater and funnels it right past the seals. New seals are affordable insurance against costly interior damage to walls, flooring, and appliances.
Hydraulic Jacks Leaking Fluid
If you're spotting a puddle of red or clear fluid under your motorhome, that's hydraulic fluid escaping from a worn cylinder seal, cracked hose, or failing pump connection. Don't keep running the system once it's low on fluid. You'll burn out the pump, and that turns a $225 seal job into an $800+ pump replacement. We locate the leak, swap the seal or hose, refill the reservoir, and bleed the air out. Most of these take about an hour.
Getting Your Slideout or Leveling Jacks Fixed
Describe the Problem
Call 772-271-5270 or use our online form. Tell us which slide or jack is acting up, what happens when you try to operate it, any sounds it makes, and any error codes on the panel. The more we know upfront, the more likely we'll have the right parts on the truck for the first visit.
On-Site Diagnosis
We come to your campsite, driveway, or storage lot. We test battery voltage, check motor draw, inspect seals and tracks, and pinpoint exactly what's failed. You get a clear explanation and a firm quote before any work starts. No surprises.
Repair and Verify
We complete the repair on the spot. Once it's done, we cycle the slideout or leveling system several times to make sure everything is operating correctly. We also clean and lubricate all moving parts while we have access. You don't pay until the system works the way it should.
