Renovations are typically in the $50,000-$125,000 range but pricing varies greatly depending on the size of the RV and the intensity of the renovation. Standard, full renovations tend to come in around $2,000-$2,500 per linear foot.

Renovation FAQs

How long does it take you to renovate an RV?

This answer varies greatly depending on how big the RV is and how intense the renovation is but on average, they are typically 6-12 weeks.


Where are you located?

We are currently traveling full time and have location partners across the country where we do the renovations. Part of the reason we’re traveling is to find our next home base.

In July of 2022, we closed our shop in the Austin, Texas area after falling out of love with the region. Instead of jumping into our next home base, we are spending ample time in the town before committing to growing this business there. We are hoping to have our “forever” home by the end of 2024. Once the decision is made, we will begin growing the team which will allow us to build even more incredible RVs for clients.


I see you’ve done mostly fifth wheels. Do you renovate motorhomes too? What about building skoolies or vans from scratch?

We can renovate any existing space, meaning any pre-built towable or motorhome. As much as we love the idea of doing a full build out of a van or skoolie, that is a different discipline and not something we can accommodate at this time.


How does the design process work?

Typically, we work hand-in-hand with the client to bring their vision to life. They will provide us with some inspiration pictures then we come up with an initial design plan. The client will give us their edits, then we continue to tweak and design from there.

Each interior is bespoke and tailored to be exactly what the client wants, as is the experience. Every once in a while we’ll have a client that adores the design process and wants to handle the entire thing on their own, which we are happy to allow. On the flip side, we’ve had clients be completely overwhelmed by design decisions. They’ll give us a broad direction, then we make every decision for them. Each design experience is tailored toward the client and their individual desires.


I’m from ____ state, can you still renovate my RV?

Yes. Our clients are scattered across the county. We’ve had clients from New York, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Ohio, Utah, California, Oregon etc. We’ve had clients send their RVs several thousand miles to be renovated by us.


Do you do simple renovations, like only rebuild a shower?

No. For the foreseeable future, we are not doing projects that only take a few days. We are focusing on full renovations that take several weeks to several months.


Do you take on clients that have very unique requests?

Yes! We love unique requests. As long as it doesn’t have a massive effect on the structure, we can pretty much do it.

We’ve had some fun ones in the past. One client (a corporation) had us covert a standard RV into a podcast studio where we removed the bed, shrunk the full kitchen to a kitchenette and shrunk the full bath to a half bath. Another client asked us to keep the door off of her bedroom and replace it with a baby gate to act as a dog door. Recently, a client requested we keep all built-in appliances out of her kitchen. She only wanted a sink and a fridge as she cooked with countertop appliances like an air fryer and Instapot.

Unique requests keep us on our toes and we love it.


I don’t currently own the RV I want you to renovate. Can you help me find one?

Yes. This is something we can help our renovation clients with. However, we cannot source RVs for people who do not intend to be renovation clients.


Do you repair RVs?

We try not to. We realize that problems can be discovered during the renovation process though. If the problem is simple enough, we might be able to fix it. If not, we will work with a local service tech to fix it and keep the client informed on the repairs and costs.

This goes for water damage too. We do not take on RVs that have active areas of water damage. Water damage needs to be repaired before the RV comes to us.
