Touring Caravan Servicing.
Habitation checks are an inspection of the living part of your motorhome, caravan or leisure vehicle. Like an MOT for your living area, it uses a standard checklist to identify problems such as damp, electric, gas, water or ventilation issues and checks the window and door security of your motorhome or caravan.

Damp is a common problem
Why do caravans get damp?
Damp builds up when there’s moisture in the air that can’t escape. So the relatively confined space of a caravans is the perfect location – especially if you’re travelling in rainy countries.
Moisture can result from condensation or water ingress. As far as condensation is concerned, steam from cooking and showers is a common cause, as are wet clothes – and simply breathing!
Water from the outside.
Water ingress can be harder to detect. Rain entering through gaps around windows, roof lights, awning rails and doors is a likely source.
In fact, anywhere there’s a hole cut in the bodywork of your vehicle, there’s the potential for water ingress and, consequently, damp.
Stop the damp and mould
Your caravan needs a regular programme of maintenance to keep it in tip-top, holiday-ready condition. Tackling damp issues comes high up the list of essential tasks.
If you catch mould and mildew early enough, then you may be able to stop it in its tracks.
The Approved Workshop Scheme is a joint enterprise between the NCC (National Caravan Council), The Caravan and Motorhome Club and The Camping and Caravanning Club. Originating on the 1st January 1978, and the only scheme to be supported by all of the major UK manufacturers* , AWS is now the UK's largest group of independently assessed workshops and is seen as the benchmark for motorhome and touring caravan servicing in the UK.
