Building a custom van, an RV solar system, or a grooming van is a real investment. Here's exactly what working with us looks like — what we do, what we need from you, and how long each step typically takes.
You submit the quote form, call, or text photos of your rig. We follow up with a written, itemized estimate within 24 to 48 hours — no high-pressure sales tactics, no upsell scripts.
We walk through your build by phone, video call, or in person at our Winnetka shop. Together we land on a layout, component list, and budget. You leave with a clear scope of work and a fixed price.
You sign a written project agreement and pay a deposit. We order Victron, Epoch, and any other components specifically for your build, and lock your slot on the build calendar.
Most builds happen at our Winnetka shop. For RVs and motorhomes 30 ft+, we travel to you with all tools and components. You'll get photo updates at the major milestones — rough-in, electrical, finish work, commissioning.
Every system is bench-tested before you ever see it in your rig. We verify inverter waveform, solar charging at MPP, lithium pack balance, fridge pull-down, AC soft-start behavior, and shore-power transfer.
We walk you through every switch, breaker, and screen. We set up the Victron VRM app on your phone so you can monitor your system from anywhere. You drive away with everything you need, plus our number for any question that comes up later.
Quotes are fixed, not "starting from." If something we couldn't see at quote time changes the scope (a hidden roof penetration, an unexpected wiring issue), we send a written change order before any extra work happens.
Text messages, mostly. You'll hear from us at major milestones with photos. If something needs your decision, we call.
Yes. We're a small home-based shop in Winnetka and we welcome visits — just text first so we can plan around active work.
Not directly. Many customers fund builds through home equity lines, RV loans, or business lines of credit. We can recommend lenders who have financed our builds before.
