How much does a campervan conversion cost?

A campervan conversion typically costs between £3,500 and £50,000+, depending on the size of your van, the specification, and the level of customisation. At Libre Campers in Macclesfield, Cheshire, partial conversions — such as insulation, storage, or a basic kitchen — start from around £3,500. Fully bespoke, high-spec conversions with solar, off-grid electrics, and custom cabinetry can range up to £50,000 or more. We work across VW, Ford, Mercedes, Renault, and Vauxhall vans, and we'll provide a clear, itemised quote based on your budget and how you plan to use your van.

How long does a campervan conversion take?

A campervan conversion usually takes between 1 and 12 weeks, depending on the scope of the project. Smaller upgrades and partial conversions can often be completed in 1–3 weeks, while a full bespoke conversion typically takes 6–12 weeks from start to finish. At Libre Campers, we give every customer a clear timescale before work begins, based on the specification of their build, and keep them updated throughout.

Do I need to supply my own van?

No — you don't need to supply your own van to get a conversion done with Libre Campers. If you already own a van, we're happy to work with it. If you haven't found one yet, we can help source a suitable base vehicle to match your budget and conversion plans, across brands including VW, Ford, Mercedes, Renault, and Vauxhall. Either way, we'll guide you through choosing the right van before any conversion work starts.

What layouts do you offer?

Libre Campers offers fully bespoke campervan layouts, built around how you actually plan to use your van rather than a fixed template. Popular options include a U-shaped lounge, L-shaped seating, fixed bed, slide-out bed, full kitchen, compact kitchen, and garage-style storage — or a completely custom layout designed from scratch. Every conversion is designed and built in-house at our Macclesfield workshop to suit your space, budget, and travel style.

Is a professional campervan conversion worth it?

For most people, yes — a professionally converted campervan generally offers better build quality, safer electrics and gas installation, and stronger resale value than a DIY conversion. It also saves hundreds of hours of work and gives you confidence that the wiring, plumbing, and structural work meet safety standards. At Libre Campers, our bespoke conversions are built to last and tailored to your budget and travel style, and we're one of the few workshops in east Cheshire offering conversions, servicing, and off-grid upgrades across multiple van brands under one roof.
