Before launching Dean's Handyman Service, my family and I lived full-time in an RV. I didn't just park it; I bought property in Pittsburg, TX, and built out two complete RV pads from the dirt up, along with my own industrial handyman shop.
I learned exactly what it takes to make an RV pad functional, comfortable, and optimized for modern living.
Power & Infrastructure
Most older RV parks and DIY pads suffer from inadequate electrical wiring. An older 30-amp hookup isn't going to cut it when a modern fifth-wheel is running two AC units, an electric water heater, and a microwave simultaneously.
Upgrading to a dedicated 50-amp pedestal with integrated surge protection (to save your rig from lightning strikes) is critical. Additionally, burying water and sewer lines below the frost line with proper heat tape is essential for surviving Texas freezes.
High-Speed Connectivity for Nomads
Campground Wi-Fi is universally terrible. If you own an RV park, or if you are setting up your own pad, high-speed internet is no longer a luxury—it's a utility.
We help property owners and travelers upgrade their tech:
- Starlink Gen 3 Setups: Permanent pole mounts for RV parks to create a local mesh Wi-Fi network for guests.
- 12V DC Starlink Mini Conversions: For boondockers, we wire the new Starlink Mini directly into your RV's 12V battery system. You can stay connected in the middle of nowhere without running a generator or power inverter.
- Security Cameras: Hardwiring floodlight cameras to your RV's exterior for peace of mind while you travel.
Need to Upgrade Your Rig or Property?
From pouring pads and running utility lines, to installing 12V Starlink systems on the roof of your camper, I can help. I bring my mobile shop to any location within 200 miles of Pittsburg, TX.
