The definition of the damage is critical. Fiberglass wall? Interior walls? Maybe, maybe not.

John was conservative with that hourly rate. My dealer charges $149 hr. for work and I believe some types of work are sort of like auto work; a preset time frame whether it takes it or not. A smaller, independent dealer/repair shop might give you a better rate. But, consider 3k only gives you 30hrs labor at $100hr. Depending on what it is that could evaporate quickly. Then the other side of the coin is how much you want to invest in a 16 year old entry level trailer?
