Our Conversion Services

What We Offer


  • Elevating Poptop Roofs

    Poptop roofs are a popular addition to campervans, as they provide extra headroom and living space. Poptop roofs can be raised and lowered, allowing for easy access to the interior of the van and improved ventilation.

  • Solar Panels & Charge Controllers

    Solar panels and charge controllers are a key component of a self-sufficient campervan. Solar panels collect energy from the sun, which can be stored in the van's battery using a charge controller. This provides a reliable source of power for running appliances and charging electronic devices while on the road.

  • Sound Deadning. Thermal and Full Carpet Lining

    Sound deadening is an important aspect of campervan conversion, as it helps reduce noise and improve insulation in the van. This can be achieved through the use of materials such as soundproofing mats and foam, which are applied to the van's walls and roof to reduce noise from the road and improve overall comfort.Thermal and full carpet lining help to improve the insulation and overall comfort of a campervan. Thermal lining helps to keep the van warm in cold weather, while full carpet lining adds a comfortable and cozy touch to the interior.

  • Part and Full Electrics 12v/240v

    Part and full electrics refer to the electrical systems installed in a campervan. A full electrical system may include lighting, heating, and charging systems, while a part electrical system may be limited to basic lighting and charging. Both 12V and 240V systems are commonly used in campervans, with 12V being used for appliances and electronics, and 240V being used for charging and providing power to more demanding appliances.

  • Furniture and Beds

    Furniture and beds are a crucial part of a campervan conversion, as they provide the necessary sleeping and living space for extended trips. Options for furniture and beds include built-in units, modular pieces, and fold-out solutions, which can be customized to meet the needs and preferences of the customer.

Our Process

How We Work


Plan

This involves working with you to understand your needs, preferences, and budget, and developing a design and layout that meets your requirements. This may involve considering factors such as the type of van, the intended use of the van, and any specific features or equipment that you want to include.

Build

Building is where the magic happens, this includes installing fixtures and fittings, adding insulation and soundproofing, and completing any necessary electrical and plumbing work. This stage of the process is where the van is transformed into a functional and comfortable living space.

Test

Testing is an important part of the campervan conversion process, as it helps to ensure that all systems are functioning correctly and that the van is safe to use. Testing is an important step to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your new campervan and that it will meet your needs for many trips to come.
