Looking for suggestions for 5th wheel body work, including fiberglass in the Tacoma area. Don't ask why I need it

If you need fiberglass work you might consider a boat service center. We have a local guy that does wonders with fiberglass and is used to working on large craft!

We've been real happy with Wescraft RV & Truck behind Loves truck stop at exit 136 at the first Fife exit, 1 exit before camping world if your coming from JBLM and talk to Karl Woodruff 253-926-3443. What made our mind up to use him initially was when I was there getting a estimate. A customer called in complaining about his Tech didn't start back up the frig/freezer and stuff they had in it spoiled rotten. He pulled up the work order said Yep it is written down to start frig/freezer, send me the bill, and customer said would it be alright to just give him a credit next time they came in? That told me they were alright, everybody makes mistakes. And he stood behind his work. The work done on ours was to rebuild kitchen drawers and the frame work for them. Had to wait 2 weeks to get in, because we was busy, which is always a good sign. Not to much of a waiting line at some RV places around Tacoma. Final work was done right and at the price agreed.
Refresh his memory by saying he did work on a little tiny Majestic drawers and frame work for them. I think he will remember. I think their shop rate was $110.00 hour. (Our Majestic looks so funny next to big dollar Rv's).

There's an RV shop on S Tacoma Way, near the old Drive in, stopped there last year when we stayed at JBLM. Near 85th or 90.

Wescraft RV & Truck is the one you want to go to, they do excellent work.

Thanks to path1 and HappyProspector. I visited Wescraft today and got the wheels in motion for an estimate and repairs with them. And to make it even better, they're an authorized GMAC insurance shop so I won't need a separate appraisal.
