Get clear answers and help with the fixes

A small fault can hold up self-containment certification, even when your caravan or motorhome is otherwise ready to travel. Being handed a failed inspection form and left to find a repairer adds another job to your list.

Pulse Compliance Testing takes a practical approach. Mike inspects your vehicle, explains anything that does not meet current requirements and can often complete minor repairs or adjustments during the same appointment.

The original inspection fee covers up to two visits, and some minor corrections may be confirmed from a photo. Certification is issued through New Zealand Lifestyle Camping, with no motorhome club membership required.

Minor faults need not mean finding another repairer

An inspection should help you understand what needs attention. Mike can explain why a vehicle does not meet current self-containment requirements and often carry out minor repairs or adjustments on the spot, reducing the need to arrange a separate repairer.

If you complete a minor correction yourself, it may be possible to confirm the work from a photo rather than bring the vehicle back. Where another visit is needed, the original inspection fee covers up to two visits.
