What you need to know
There are benefits to having an annual habitation check. One, it can help identify any issues or problems that may be developing with the caravan or motorhome, which can then be addressed before they become bigger problems. Additionally, it can help ensure that the caravan or motorhome is still in good condition and is safe to use, and that any necessary repairs or updates are carried out. Finally, it can help keep the caravan or motorhome in good condition for longer, which can save money in the long run, and potentially keep the re-sale value at the higher-end of the price range.
Your annual habitation check is the best way to ensure your leisure vehicle is well maintained and fit for purpose. It will highlight issues such as damp and faults with leisure vehicle water systems, leisure vehicle electrical systems, leisure vehicle gas systems and leisure vehicle bodywork. This check-up will also highlight any safety issues which may be present within your caravan/motorhome.
What checks are included:
- Electrical System
- LPG Gas System (Appliances not serviced unless requested)
- Water System
- Bodywork (both inside and out, including a full damp check)
- Ventilation
- Fire & Safety
NOTE: We include a chassis service as part of your habitation check

You should have a habitation check every 12 months. Some caravan and motorhome insurers require an annual habitation service to validate your policy.
A habitation check is a safety inspection of a caravan or motorhome which is carried out by a qualified caravan technician. As fully qualified caravan technicians, we will check the caravan or motorhome for any safety issues and will make any necessary repairs, having first spoken to you about costs.
The cost of a habitation check varies depending on the caravan technician. At Thornhill Services it is our policy NOT to advertise prices on the website as we have found that people shopping on price are not comparing like with like. It is for this reason that we like to have a conversation with potential customers prior to quoting a price. Give us a call on 07827 138193.
