There’s nothing prefab about our van conversions; each one is custom-built to match your unique needs.
We believe you should be able to design you van exactly how you want it. Every detail is tailored to enhance your comfort. Inside and out, we use only the highest grade materials, focusing on premium quality and craftsmanship that lasts.
Our handcrafted process means each van is intentional, premium, and truly unique, so we only build a handful each year. Current bookings extend 6-12+ months so check out how our process works and book a call with us.
BUILD IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT
Custom Crafted Vans is founded on the idea of world class van conversions at a fair price. We understand there are a lot of choices when it comes to picking the right van builder.
So what makes us different ?
WE’RE INSURED
No need to worry! We are covered up to $1MM per occurrence and $2MM aggregate plus full garage keepers and workers comp. Your investment is always protected in our hands. Our studio intentionally stays small. We focus on quality and craftsmanship, not volume — which means only 8-10 builds per year.
WE DON’T CUT CORNERS
Our team is small but mighty. Keeping our team tight-knit is how we ensure every van meets our rigorous quality control standards. Every conversion is hand-designed and hand-built, with thoughtful details you won’t find in prefab or outsourced builds.
we’re trained experts
We didn’t start building during the 2020 boom like 90% of the companies out there. We have decades of experience in construction and design. Not to mention, we are RV Technical Institute Certified. From initial design to delivery day, clients work directly with Sara & Alex — no hidden middlemen.
Meet the Founders
Sara & Alex James
A small shop, on purpose.
We were building long before the 2020 van boom, with decades of construction and design experience behind us. Since 2017, we've delivered over 60 custom vans, most of them to clients outside Idaho.
We keep the shop small so we can do it right: just 8-10 vans a year. Every van is designed and built by our own team, with no outsourcing and no middlemen.
"Most builders say yes to everything. We start by asking how you actually travel, then build around that."
You'll talk to us directly every week of your build. We look forward to helping you create your dream van!
