About Us
We work directly with you to give you a fully customised camper, revamping your lifestyle and enhancing your travel experiences…
Get in TouchRevampavan began in 2008, inspired by nearly a decade of Campervanning in Devon and Cornwall with our young family, where the idea came to start a Conversion company that had more of a personal approach to creating practical, custom conversions for people like us. Unlike traditional camper manufacturers, we work directly with you to transform your own van into a fully customised camper, revamping your lifestyle and enhancing your travel experiences.
From the very beginning, Revampavan’s mission has been to deliver a seamless and personalised experience for our customers. We believe that your journey starts with your vision, and we’re committed to bringing that vision to life with precision and care.
Revampavan’s long-standing dedication to quality craftsmanship and exceptional customer service has earned us a loyal community of campervanners who trust us to convert their vans into their ideal travel companions.
Andy spent 25 years as a panel beater after leaving school, until he was made redundant in 2008. With every cloud having a silver lining, he took his redundancy as an opportunity and set up a business for himself. Having bought/converted a T25 which was used for family holidays, he already had some VW experience and wanted to see where he could take his knowledge.
“I bought a LWB T5 and converted it and then sold it on for a profit, so then I realised they I could do Ok out of it,”
That was mainly built on his drive at home, although his ex-boss did allow him workshop access, which came in very handy, especially for fitting the pop top.
Andy then continued working on his drive, fitting windows and carpetlining etc until 2011 when he decided it was time to go large or go home, so he sold his camper to raise cash and Revampavan was born. It grew over the years in various locations, before ending up in the current unit about 2 years ago, where it’s now a fully-formed camper conversion company.
Revampavan are based in Christchurch and have a large workshop on-site where all Campervan conversions take place.
The workshop includes a large CNC machine that enables much of the bespoke building that the Revampavan team do for all van conversions as well as 3D printers that allow for more intricate pieces.
When it comes to R&R beds he usually fits RIBs, into T5/T6’s and sometimes in Crafters to Caddys, via his contacts at Banwy, and he will normally plant an Austops roof on the top.
“We have worked with Austops since around 2010, when they were just starting up, and they have always been the best option for us; we must fit about 100 of their pop tops a year.”
Revampavan’s roots as a family business continue to shape our team today. Every van we transform is crafted with love, dedication and attention to detail, ensuring our customers get the best out of our work.

Andy & Kath and the team built up my VW Transporter Sportline 60 to a very high standard nearly 8 years ago and it still looks as good today as it did when I picked it up all those years ago

I remember the tarpaulin sheeting on the side of the house. We all had to start somewhere. Well done you guys. You encouraged us to do our camper and helped put solar panels and a compression fridge in, and built our cupboards. So thankyou, and keep up your fab work.

We had our brand new VW T6.1 converted by Revampavan and we had several other additional pieces of work done over the years. All the work was done to the highest standard and the whole team were an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Always received excellent service from Andy, Kathy and the team
Chris Peddle
Not only an amazing conversion that we had, but the after sales service has also been second to none. We’ve even had a custom made bench seat for our dog Murphy made recently by you. We did a lot of research before going ahead and are up so pleased we choose Revampavan. We’ve now had 3 and a half years of enjoyment in Ozzy and absolutely loving it. A massive thank you to all the team.

My number 1 choice from little to large jobs on all of my project van’s. I first had the pleasure of having my first T5 converted back in 2009. Here’s to a brighter future for you both and Revampavan. P.S. see you soon for the leather interior upgrade.
