# Skoolie and Bus Conversion Repair in Chino > OCRV Center repairs skoolies and bus conversions in Chino, including collision and body work, roof raises, and build-out repair, with insurance billed direct. A skoolie is a school bus converted into a home, so a repair has to treat both the bus shell and the build inside it. Roof raises, window deletes, and re-skinned sides are common on these conversions, and each one adds seams that can leak or crack. Chino owners traveling in their builds bring us skoolies most shops will not touch. Our Yorba Linda shop has room for a full-size bus and repairs the shell and the conversion together. ## Skoolie repairs we handle A skoolie repair almost always crosses the line between bus and build, since the two are welded and screwed together. We repair bus body panels and collision damage, rebuild roof raises and their seams, and reskin sides where windows were deleted. Behind the wall, we fix the framing, insulation, and paneling the same impact or leak reached. - Bus body panel and collision repair - Roof raise, reseal, and structure repair - Window delete and side re-skin - Conversion interior and cabinetry repair - Systems, framing, and insulation repair ## Sealing a raised roof for the long haul The roof raise is where most skoolies leak, because the added band of wall and its seams sit right in the weather. We rebuild the raise structure, seam-seal and reskin it, and tie it back into the original roofline so it stays watertight over the road. Inside, we document the build for insurance and repair the conversion in one place. - Roof raise seam-seal and re-skin - Tie-in to original roofline - Conversion documented for insurance - Full-size bus bay and lift capacity ## Frequently asked questions ### Can you repair a roof raise on a skoolie? Yes. We rebuild the roof raise structure, seam-seal and reskin it, and tie it back into the original roofline so the raised section is solid and watertight. The band of new wall a raise adds is the usual leak source, so we address the seams before any interior work. ### Do you repair the conversion interior on a skoolie? Yes. We repair the bus body and the conversion interior together, from framing and insulation to cabinetry and paneling. Because a collision or leak crosses from the shell into the build, we open both sides, document the conversion for insurance, and rebuild it as one job. ### Do you bill insurance for skoolie repair? Yes. We bill your carrier direct on skoolie and bus conversion damage claims and document the build so the payout reflects the work that went into it. A converted bus is worth far more than a stripped shell, so detailed reporting keeps the estimate honest. --- Source: https://oc-rv.com/vehicles/skoolie-repair/ OCRV Center, 23281 La Palma Ave, Yorba Linda, CA 92887.
