About us
I trained as a furniture designer and cabinet maker at college, after spending a lot of my time in my fathers workshop learning his trade, cabinet making and antique restoration.
Over the years I've never shied away from learning new skills, all aspects of the building/construction & restoration trades , plumbing, electrics 12v and mains, solar and wind power setups, welding, mechanics, vehicle restoration and the list goes on.
I spent a few years working as the Joiner for a local VW conversion company, building and designing their kits and being a major contributor on all aspects of their latest design improvements. There I learnt a lot of tricks of the trade while styling out a couple of their clients vans.
I built my first van conversion, a Mercedes 407d, 20 years ago which i traveled and lived in for many years.
Six years ago I took on a new project, a slight upgrade to a classic 30' Bristol Leyland coach, which is being revamped into a motor home. So now i can get away for time out with my family in comfort.
I've now started creating unique caravans when I'm not working on clients vans.
So with a love of small spaces and a challenge, setting up as a van conversion business was the right way to go.
If you want a bespoke conversion to suit all of your needs and the needs you haven't thought of yet, please get in touch
