Campervan Conversions FAQ

It starts with a conversation.We have a relaxed chat to discuss the details you have given us on the contact form. After this we plan a workshop visit, or virtual viewing to discuss further your requirements, layouts, costs and build slot availability. When we have agreed on your design and specification, we can then provide you with a quotation. If you are happy, we request a non refundable deposit of £1000 plus VAT to reserve your build slot. Whether you want a bespoke campervan or one of our finished campervans ready to drive away, we are here to help you find the right path.

Each build takes about 10-12 weeks depending on your specifications. Before and during your build we stay in close contact with you ensuring clear communication and regular updates. When the build starts, we provide weekly updates with photos and arranged workshop visits if you are able. We only build one campervan at a time. We work closely with you and offer a very personal approach whilst building your bespoke campervan. We want you to be excited to see your conversion come together and we want you to feel part of the journey, to be as involved as you want to be. Our WhatsApp build chat remains open long after you have collected your van so we can offer ongoing support when needed. Even if its just to answer van life questions.

We do not provide base vans directly however we will happily guide you through the process of acquiring your van if needed. We offer valuable advice and practical considerations to help and support you in finding the right van. If you are looking for a ready to go campervan, please take a look at our sales page for adventure vans we have built and are ready for sale.

A week before your van is finished, we provide you with videos and guides to help familiarise yourself with the systems. Take the time to review it so you can ask questions on the day. At the handover we give you a thorough demonstration on everything in your new van. We spend time helping you understand your electrical and heating systems because we want you to feel confident using your van. This comprehensive handover can take a couple of hours.  Every build is issued with an electrical safety certificate. We are always here to provide ongoing support and practical advice when you need us, including while you’re travelling. We still travel in our van which keeps us up to date with the changes in overland travel. We love to share practical tips and advice for your travels and our customers regularly share their favourite road trip and camp spots.

To secure your build slot, we require a deposit of £1000 plus VAT. There are then 3 staged payments throughout the build. The first installment is required when you drop your van to our workshop. The second installment is issued in the middle of the build and the final remaining payment is required before collection of your campervan.

Our workmanship has a warranty of 12 months, subject to wear and tear.  As part of our warranty, we include a complimentary habitation check at the end of this first year period. Components and equipment used are subject to their warranties, between 1 - 6 years, depending on the product.

We prioritise using premium, durable materials that are low VOC, responsibly sourced and environmentally conscious to create light and natural spaces to live in. We build our ceilings and furniture in strong yet lightweight Allin poplar ply finished with Osmo oil to bring out the beautiful grain and for added protection. We use Forbo furniture linoleum on cabinet doors. A natural surface finish which is as warm and tactile as it is strong and durable. Low maintenance, resistant to fingertips and easy to clean. It is made from natural materials and holds a Climate Positive Cradle to Gate distinction.We use hard wearing and high quality commercial grade flooring by Forbo. With a combination of acoustic sound reduction, comfort and the best residual indentation, Forbo Sarlon and Marmoleum flooring completes the interior with a durable finish and a softer, quieter feel underfoot. Our choices of upholstery fabrics are from a sustainable hard wearing range made with 100% recycled yarns and coated with a revolutionary Green Fire Retardancy. Scoring 200,000 on the Martindale abrasion test, this fabric is hard wearing yet feels soft and luxurious. Machine washable and wipe clean for ease of use in high traffic areas.

We specialise in converting Mercedes-Benz Sprinters. After many years creating adventure vans we have honed in on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as our favoured base van. Powerful and reliable, a MWB Sprinter is the perfect size for a truly capable adventure van that can access those tight back country trails as well as being easy to navigate city streets.A LWB Mercedes-Benz Sprinter allows more space to carry more passengers and more kit, or to give extra living space for full time van life. We have built basecamp conversions on the Citroen Relay, VW Crafter and the ManTGE. If you would like discuss a specific van base, please get in touch by phone or email.

We can fit windows, side pods  and exterior kit to your self built van.We can install full Victron electrical systems to your self built van.If we can help with your specific requests, please get in touch by phone or email.
