Why buyers choose The Vansmith

We are a family-owned shop in Boulder, and we have built more than 300 vans since 2016. Every one of them was designed and built in-house, not outsourced to a third-party fabricator.

  • Layouts proven across 300 builds, not first attempts
  • Electrical designed and installed by our own team, so the people who wired your van can service it later
  • Four-season systems tested through Colorado winters and desert summers
  • Lifetime cabinet warranty for the original owner, with no mileage or year limits
  • NOAH certified, independently inspected against RV industry build standards

Our vans are built to look like a home rather than an RV, and to hold up on Rocky Mountain passes in February. If your trips end where the pavement does, start with our 4x4 and AWD camper vans. If you want a premium interior for long trips, look at the luxury camper van collection.

Frequently asked questions

The questions we get asked most, answered straight.

  • 01

    How much does a van conversion cost?

    Most conversions fall between $46,950 and $68,950, with the van itself adding $60,000 to $75,000. Fully custom builds can run to $300,000. A Foundation shell starts at $9,970.

  • 02

    How long does a build take?

    Pre-built Bivy models are ready in 8 to 10 weeks. Tailored and conversion builds run 12 to 16 weeks from design approval to delivery.

  • 03

    Do you offer financing?

    Yes. We can recommend lenders familiar with van builds, including RV and personal loan options. Try our RV loan calculator to sketch out payments.

  • 04

    What's the best van for conversion?

    The high roof Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 144 or 170 and the Ford Transit 148 or 148 extended are the top picks. We'll help you choose based on your travel style and budget.

  • 05

    How custom can a build actually get?

    Every layout we offer is a starting point. Change the galley, bed, seating, electrical and finishes, or design a build from scratch with our team in the van designer.

  • 06

    Can I customize just the interior of my van?

    Absolutely. We offer interior customization on its own, from small upgrades to a full interior redesign.

  • 07

    What's the difference between a camper van and a conversion van?

    A camper van is built for travel and living. A conversion van starts as a standard cargo van and is then customized for those uses.

  • 08

    Do you sell vans too?

    Yes. We keep a rotating selection of new models and inspected used vans. Browse our camper vans for sale.

  • 09

    What kind of warranty do you offer?

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★ 4.8 · 150+ Google Reviews
★★★★★

"The Vansmith team exceeded every expectation. Our Sprinter build is absolutely stunning, the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and communication throughout were all top notch. Best money we've ever spent."

★★★★★

"We drove our completed van from Boulder to Patagonia, zero issues. The electrical, insulation, and cabinetry have held up perfectly through two years of full-time van life. Couldn't recommend The Vansmith more highly."

★★★★★

"From the initial design consultation to picking up our finished van, every step was smooth and professional. The team listened to exactly what we wanted and delivered something even better than we imagined."

★★★★★

"Incredible work. They converted our Transit into a rolling home that's both beautiful and incredibly functional. The bamboo cabinetry, galley kitchen, and electrical system are all flawless. Worth every penny."

★★★★★

"We've had our van for 18 months and taken it across 30 states. Not a single thing has come loose, warped, or broken. The build quality is genuinely on another level compared to what we saw elsewhere."

★★★★★

"The team was transparent about timelines, kept us updated throughout the build, and delivered on every promise. Our van is exactly what we dreamed of, functional, beautiful, and built to last."

★★★★★

"I visited three different van builders before choosing The Vansmith. The difference in quality, expertise, and professionalism was immediately obvious. Our build came out perfect and on time."

★★★★★

"Our solar + lithium setup has run perfectly through Colorado winters, desert summers, and everything in between. The Vansmith knows electrical systems for van life better than anyone we spoke with."

★★★★★

"The Vansmith turned our vision into reality. We had very specific requests, custom flare space, roof rack, and a crosswise bed, and they executed everything perfectly. It's the van we always wanted."
