The entire staff at Ricks are so helpful and friendly, weather it's on the phone, or in their well stocked RV supply store, their customer service, patience and professionalism is to be commended! It's so refreshing to experience this type of personalized service still. I have been to the big stores like Camper World who are also nice, but Ricks is the place to go in my opinion. They have a really well stocked store and a huge catalog they give you where you can order literally anything you need. Their expertise in service and repair is really helpful, I am fairly new to owning a RV and still learning, I had a problem with my door and stopped by this morning and they came out and explained it to me and did a small adjustment on the spot and got me back on the road again! They deserve all 5 Stars !!!! Thank you Ricks Trailer Supply. read more

Had a problem with the slide out on my camper. We discovered hours before we were ready to leave on a camping trip. My wife made a panicked call to ricks to see if they could do anything. They didn't make any promises but said they would take a look first thing in the morning and see what they could do. Well they stopped what they were doing took a look and fixed it in about 20 minutes. We have had numerous phone calls with the manufacture and run around crazy trying to get fixes the entire day before with no luck. Ricks came through and they always do. We are so lucky to have him in our town. read more

Hat's Off to Rick's Trailer Supply!!! A+!!! We were on our way to a camping trip trip when our trailer broke, they took us THAT DAY within a half an hour and we were up and running within a couple hours and on our way, friendly, fast accommodating! Paul was our service guy and he was great! Highly recommended!!!! read more

First of all I want to start out by saying the service, flexibility and courteous service I received was first class. Both Tom and Brian could not have been more accommodating or helpful while my 5th wheel was repaired. However, the 50Amp service cable that was with the vehicle is now missing (disappeared while trailer was on their property) leaving me with nearly $300 worth of additional expense beyond the repair work. According to the conversation I had they are unwilling to 'replace' the lost or missing item and no attempt was made to 'meet in the middle' as far as I am concerned. I was really disappointed that no offer or problem resolution was offered and I feel that yet again, an effort to form a lasting relationship with a RV repair facility has fallen flat on its face. I feel pretty cheated actually. I'm happy to respond to RTS follow up if any and at this time I'm headed back to Orange County to file a report with the local Sheriff's Dept. read more

I have been into custom automotive since 1976 and you can trust RTS. These guys are great, good parts, good service. Tom and Brian are very helpful when you need them. read more

Rude people all around. Been there a number of times and same attitude. I love supporting a local business but can't support bad behavior. I know they are a small shop but Prices are to high. Better off going to a local auto shop or ordering parts online. read more

Trusted service and their customer service is the best I've ever had. If you are looking for a trustworthy place that won't give you the runaround, Rick's is the place to go. Tom and crew went above and beyond to take care of my trailer needs, and they did so with a smile. Seriously, this place is awesome. I drove from San Diego, just to bring my trailer to these guys. read more

Rick's Trailer Supply - RV Repair Near Me - San Clemente, California

I came in without an appointment and they diagnosed my trailer/RV with 2 totally dead batteries right away. They had the correct batteries in stock and switched them out for me. They filled up my propane tanks too! All of this took under an hour. They checked all my connections in my truck and trailer/RV to make sure the dead batteries were the only problem. Easy to drive and drive back out. Very nice staff and great customer service. I highly recommend them if you're in the San Clemente area! read more

I was referred to Rick's by another vendor. Went to check it out. Pleasantly surprised by selection of misc items in the store. The employees were friendly & helped me locate 2 items which I purchased. I will return. read more

The shop is out of the way on the hilltop (literally!). Everyone on the phone and in the shop was super nice. I had an issue with my leveling jacks and signals after a battery replacement. They found my issue quickly and replaced needed part. They even have a propane fill station if you need it before your trip. Would definitely recommend. read more

Trustworthy. Highly recommended. We've had an RV for 2 years and use it a lot, so things break. Every time we take it to Tom & Carol at Rick's, we get honest answers and fair treatment. When we have problems on the road, we wait until we get back (if we can) so we can have Rick's handle it. A trustworthy repair person is worth their weight in gold. Rick is clear about his commitment to living as a Christian, when asked, but doesn't push it on you, and I think that's why they operate with integrity. read more

Bob K Westminster I have been going to Ricks for a number of years now after they were recommended to me by the maintenance host at a local campground. I found that the folks there, Tom, Brian, and Carol, are awesome folks who take their work seriously. They are straight shooters and do not do anything except excellent repairs/installations. I have a 5th wheel that they have worked on from everything from solar panel installation to electrical repairs and general maintenance. I feel that when I leave their lot, I have good confidence that what was fixed was done properly. They have also helped me with an electrical issue on my truck that was wired poorly. What a great place. They make appointments and get you in and out unlike other "RV" shops that keep your trailer for a month and still haven't started the work and then when you get it back, it's still not fixed right! They are a rare group of people now a days, great job you guys, I will definitely keep coming back and sending people your way! Thanks for your great work and ethical practices! read more

I have had Rick's service my two motorhomes for 9 years. They are very professional and do a first class job. Recently Tom suggested the addition of a rear anti sway bar for my Kodiak Chassis motorhome. The difference was outstanding. No more leaning in curves and the rig is much more stable. Paul found that my coach was not wired correctly and was able to change from 30 amp to 50 amp service which allowed me to run both air conditioners at the same time. read more

Rick's has serviced and, when needed, repaired my motor home refrigerator, chassis A/C, a slide out that broke, etc. including getting us back on the road after a few hours as we were leaving on a cross country trip. You can rely on the staff at Rick's to be pleasant, helpful and thorough. read more

Rick's gets the job done right the first time! I really appreciate thatthey did a great job, did it fast and at a fair price! Thank you guys! read more

I want to start by saying that this is my first yelp review and have only decided to write this because my experience with Rick's was that bad. It started when the furnace stopped working in my camper and I brought it in to be fixed. They replaced the ignitor board in my furnace but did not replace it with an OEM part. Since that time my furnace only works at sea level and if the temperature is greater then 50degrees. Needless to say a furnace that only works when it is warm is not functional. I had brought it back to Rick's and they claimed that this was just a problem with these heaters at altitude. I tried to deal with this for a year but it is winter again and I spend a lot of time in the mountains with my camper and I could no longer do this with an unreliable heater. Since my furnace is an Atwood product I called the company directly to try and figure out what the issue could be. Atwood was very professional and helpful and suggested that the reason was that an non OEM ignitor board was used. So I purchased the Atwood ignitor board and called Rick's to schedule an appointment to have the board replaced again. I wasn't looking for a refund on the part or even to have the board replaced for free, I really just wanted to have a functioning furnace again. When I arrived for my appointment I was met by Tom who tells me that it is impossible that the reason for the failure was the non-OEM board and that actually the dinosaur board he had used was a superior product. When I told him what Atwood told me about why they think that the furnace was not functioning properly, Tom was very dismissive and said they were just trying to rush me off the phone. Atwood had actually called me several times in the interest of trying to resolve my issue, they in no way rushed me off the phone. I asked him how it could be that I had a furnace that worked for years at altitude and in -5 weather but since the board was replaced by him it does not work, he could not answer this question. His demeanor the whole time was defensive and condescending. I had had this appointment scheduled for over a week, why would he not have called me sooner if he felt so strongly that replacing the board was useless. Instead he wasted my time and pretty much told me that Atwood didn't know what they were talking about. I had asked several times for him to explain this but he just skirted the question and kept getting more hostile. This lead me to believe that he was being dishonest with me to cover up his shoddy work. When I suggested that he was being dishonest he got very angry and told me to leave, which I gladly did. Very unprofessional. read more

These guys (and gals) are awesome. I had a towing package (electric brake, air bags, hitch) installed on my truck here and they were fast, courteous, and knowledgeable. Their price was great too. Everyone was very a pleasure to work with. A few years later, the air bag compressor stopped working and I called them and was instructed to bring it in. I had to work so my wife brought it in and they took great care of her. It turned out to be an electronic issue and they fixed it free of charge. AWESOME! I would use them again and urge anyone who needs anything trailer or RV related to give them a shot. I would say about the only negative thing is that there aren't more locations and it is a bit of a drive from where I'm at, but regardless, it is worth the drive. read more

My wife and I frequently stay at San Clemente State Beach in our travel trailer. We only visit Rick's when we have some type of minor problem that needs to be fixed. On our last visit we had a water line break that flooded our bathroom...this was more than a minor problem. Not only did Rick's have the right part, one of their technicians took the time to go through the repair in detail. Thanks! read more

Wow! Easy to get an appointment and when showing up for the appointment, taken care of immediately. In and out in one day as promised. Awesome service! read more

I want to let people know how pleased I am with my RV work done at Ricks Trailer Supply. Thank you Tom... Everyone there went out of there way to help me get what I needed for my Motorhome. I will definitely go back there again for help. Also , I have to say, Bill Park who works there is a wealth of knowledge and a true professional. Thanks Guys. Mr. T read more

I've been taking my boat trailers to Rick's for years, the most recent being yesterday. Their service continues to be excellent. I feel very fortunate that a shop like this is in my hometown. read more

Great service, selection, and very helpful staff. I had a solar install done here and have been very pleased with the workmanship and care they took to ensure no leaks or electrical problems in the controller/battery interface. read more

Friendly, professional quality service and respectable prices. Has a family like feeling when you visit. They care about their customers.

It was December 29 and we were preparing to leave our campsite at San Clemente State Park when the black water backed up into the toilet instead of draining down the sewer. I called Rick's and even though they were operating under a skeleton staff during the holidays they said to bring it right in. Within a few hours they had diagnosed and fixed the problem as well as filed a claim for us through our extended warranty policy. Thanks to the staff at Rick's we were still able to continue on our family vacation with just a delay instead of having to cancel plans. What great customer service! Thanks. read more

I'm biased. I have a van decked out with all the motorhome stuff. I live in San Clemente and the closest repair place was Irvine. The guy at the supply checkout is the one who writes up a service order. He hates details. You have to know what's wrong and what they need to do. You have to leave it. I was wrong 5 times and my electrical system continued to not function until I lay in wait for the service manager and pleaded. The problem was a little fuse. The reason I still have this vehicle is Rick's Trailer Supply, a misnomer if there ever was one. Buried in the outer reaches of San Clemente, it is in actuality a total motorhome service place. When I first found it I couldn't believe my luck. They do appointments. Come in and wait. For me, on four occasions they started when they said, finished in a reasonable time, and had reasonable prices. Debbie answers the phone, can set up appointments and can order parts for your refrigerator. Tom is who you talk to if you need service. He also runs the service center. Whenever I have told him a problem, he knows the probable cause and can arrange service and quotes an estimate. My last two wait appointments were for swapping out the house battery (a chore on this vehicle) and for Onan generator service including a new carburetor (it runs the best it ever has.) I'm hoping to make sure they have enough business to do well, but not so much I can't get in when I want. If you have a motorhome, this is nirvana. read more

We took our new Winnebago and car to Rick's for a tow package installation and got superior results. They were fast, thorough, and Paul did a terrific job of explaining how everything works. He also went the "extra mile" to help us out. We will be coming back for additional service. Thank you to Tom and all the others involved for their great work ethic. It is so refreshing to find a place that does what they say they will do. read more

I have enjoyed my motorhome for about a year now...due in no small measure to the excellent service the rig has received at Rick's Trailer Supply. They have done what they said they would do, on time and for the estimated price. Tom, the owner has gone out of his way to answer questions and solve problems,, even when I called him from Arizona! If you need RV service in Orange County, his shop is worth the drive. read more

My motor home spent more time at Thompson's RV maintenance facility than at my home. Everything they did took forever and they never got it fixed correctly. I almost gave up on the RV experience, that is, until I found Rick's Trailer Supply. Tom and crew solved the problems in a few days instead of months and I was back on the road. Everything from installing a satellite system to setting up a towing system was done quickly and professionally. If you want to enjoy spending time in your RV instead of having your RV spend all of its time in the shop, then take it to RTS to get it fixed right the first time. read more

Best RV and trailer service in SOC. If you have an RV this is the place to have your service taken care of and they will take good care of you. Make reservations they are busy. read more

Horrible place. Will never go to this business again. Dropped off our trailer to have them give us an estimate on our generator. Nothing was mentioned on price to tell us what was wrong and I told Tom that another person stated that our governor was bad. He calls me finally at 3pm and tells me that it would cost $1600.00 to repair. Then when I asked how long would my generator last with the repair he had to get back to me. They get back to me later and then tell me that it is not worth it to fix the generator and now they want 5-6 thousand to replace it. I tell them that I need to think about this and that I would be picking up my trailer in the morning. I pull in and they hand me a bill for $90.00 I was dumbfounded. I asked why he said " Do you expect me to work for free?" I said you never said anything to me prior or when I told you I was coming to pick up my trailer there was a charge. I paid the charge and left. Will never recommend this place or ever go back. Warning to all of you, you will be charged a diagnostic fee and they won't tell you about it till you show up to pick up your item. read more
