    Had a minor reversing accident with caravan. Anyone recommend someone to repair, preferably in Dublin area.

    also looking to get someone to wash it, believe you are not supposed to power wash, bad for seals.

    Where exactly is the damage? On the bumper or the body?


    I've always powerwashed the MH and caravan, just use your head and don't power wash into the seals. That said most of the hard graft us done with warm water and a sponge

    Thats not so bad. Its very fixable. I hit mine back in May, ruined the weekend I was absolutely raging

    I looked into getting the bumper part but its expensive and difficult to get from the UK because of Brexit so I decided to repair it myself.

    Patience, time priming, filling and lots of sanding before respraying I'm happy with the result

    A reputable body shop will fix that, or Greenmeadow storage in Redcross could do it. They have done bits for me before
