Scope is body, paint, structural, fiberglass, glass, serving window and hatch frames, equipment mounting and graphics. Cooking, medical and grooming equipment stays with your equipment supplier. ## When the vehicle is the business, downtime is the real cost A private owner whose RV is in the shop reschedules a trip. A food truck operator whose vehicle is in the shop closes. That is the entire difference, and it is why these jobs get planned around a calendar rather than around a bay. The practical version of that is ordering parts before the vehicle arrives, quoting a window rather than a vague soon, and being honest when a job is going to take longer than the operator can afford so they can decide rather than discover. It also means understanding which repairs can be staged. A serving hatch and a rear corner can often be done in separate visits between event weekends. A structural repair usually cannot. ## What actually breaks on a vehicle that gets worked out of every day The failures cluster around the openings and the mounts. Serving windows and hatches take repeated load in a place the original body was not designed to be cut, and the frame around them works loose or lets water in. Equipment that was bolted to a wall or a floor without a backing plate slowly tears its mounting points. Generator bays get hot and vibrate, and the penetrations for exhaust and fuel are the first place a seal fails. Roof AC and vent penetrations on a unit that is parked in sun all day cycle harder than the same unit on a recreational vehicle. Interior surfaces in a food or medical unit are a repair category of their own, because the surface has to be cleanable to a standard rather than just intact. A patch that would pass on an RV wall does not pass an inspector. - Serving window and hatch frame distortion, water intrusion at the cut edge - Equipment mounting points tearing where there is no backing plate - Generator bay seal and penetration failure from heat and vibration - Roof AC and vent penetrations cycling harder from all day sun exposure - Interior surface damage that fails a cleanability standard, not just an appearance one - Wrap and graphics failing early on a vehicle parked outdoors continuously ## Where our scope stops on an equipped vehicle We do body, paint, structural, fiberglass, glass, serving window and hatch frames, equipment mounting and reinforcement, roof and bay penetrations, interior surface repair and graphics. We do not service cooking appliances, refrigeration, medical devices, grooming equipment or generator internals, and we do not issue health department or licensing certification. Those stay with your equipment suppliers and your inspector. What we can do is make sure the vehicle and the mounting are sound enough that the equipment passes when they look at it. ## Graphics on a vehicle that is a rolling storefront For most of these vehicles the wrap is the marketing budget, and it lives outdoors continuously in Southern California sun. That shortens its life relative to a vehicle that gets garaged, and it means surface prep matters more than the vinyl choice. Wrap over a panel that still has failing paint underneath and the whole thing lifts early. Wrap over a properly prepared surface and it lasts the way the material was rated to. If a repair is happening anyway, that is the right moment to handle the substrate rather than putting new vinyl over an old problem. We can also handle partial replacement so a damaged section is redone without rewrapping the whole vehicle, which is usually the cheaper answer after a minor hit. ## Coming from West Covina with a working vehicle The shop is at 23281 La Palma Ave in Yorba Linda, about 22 miles from West Covina, roughly 30 to 45 minutes on the 57 and the 91. Bring the vehicle empty if you can. Product, equipment and inventory in the way slows the job and creates liability neither of us wants. If the unit has to stay loaded for a reason, tell us at intake so we can plan around it. All work is performed here. We do not run mobile service or a route. ## Frequently asked questions ### How long will my food truck be down It depends entirely on the job, and we would rather give you a real window than an optimistic one. Cosmetic and hatch work is usually days. Structural work or anything requiring a long lead part is longer. Tell us your calendar at intake and we will tell you honestly whether it fits, and whether the work can be staged across two visits. ### Do you work on the cooking equipment or the generator No. Our scope is the vehicle, meaning body, structural, fiberglass, glass, hatch and window frames, equipment mounting, penetrations, interior surfaces and graphics. Cooking appliances, refrigeration, medical devices and generator internals stay with your equipment suppliers. We make sure what they mount to is sound. ### Can you repair interior surfaces so they pass inspection We repair to a cleanable, sealed standard rather than a cosmetic one, because that is what an inspector is actually looking at on a food or medical unit. We do not issue certification and we are not the inspector. Tell us the standard you are being held to at intake so the repair is specified correctly the first time. ### My wrap is lifting after only two years, is that normal For a vehicle parked outdoors continuously in this climate, early lifting usually points at surface prep rather than the vinyl. Vinyl applied over failing paint takes the paint with it. If a repair is happening anyway, that is the moment to fix the substrate rather than putting new material over the same problem. ### Can you replace just the damaged section of graphics Usually yes, and after a minor hit that is normally the cheaper answer. Whether a partial blends acceptably depends on how faded the surrounding vinyl is and whether the original material is still available. We will tell you honestly if a partial is going to be obvious rather than selling you one. --- OCRV Center, 23281 La Palma Ave, Yorba Linda, CA 92887. Phone (949) 799-3387.
