“I feel so blessed that it was you who saw my dream into an even more beautiful reality than I had imagined. I was truly shocked, 2 years-and-a-bit ago, when you delivered her, how beautiful she was. My attachment only deepens (what a bad Buddhist!) as sweet memories build up. Thanks also for the tireless efforts and high standards. And for how, even when exhausted, you dig deep and find another “Yes” with which to plough on. You’re a remarkable human and creative genius. Much love to you and darling Sammi. I hope you both have a chance to stand back and congratulate yourselves. At the worst of all times, you have achieved so much and are literally making people’s life goals and dreams come true.”
“We bought Narnia (a 1992 Fiat Ducato Dethleffs Camper) in the summer of 2020, with the intention of stripping out all of the original interior and rebuilding it as a tiny log cabin on wheels. We managed to complete the strip out, however once it got to the rebuild part we got majorly stuck, and knew we needed help. After contacting many builders we finally landed on VANHAUS Conversions, and we are so glad that we did. Tobias’ eye for details, craftsmanship and passion for what he does is something really special. He truly is an artist. He was always very easy to communicate with and really listened to what our vision was (and make that come to life). Every morning we wake up and have to pinch ourselves because our van really is just that good. The build quality, materials used and the construction are all to a very high standard, and we have not had any issues with anything yet (been living full time now for nearly 2 years). We couldn’t recommend VANHAUS Conversions highly enough. You will be guaranteed a quality, bespoke build at a reasonable price.”
“To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream, not only plan, but also believe!’ - Anatole France A quote I read on the wall at the VANHAUS Conversions workshop. I had a dream I believed so badly, but I lacked all the acting and planning necessary to accomplish it! The truth is, if it wasn’t for Tobias and VANHAUS Conversions, I would never had achieved that dream. Tobias supported me all through the build and helped with hard decisions. He was kind and professional. A breath of fresh air. I’m honoured to have my home on wheels built by VANHAUS Conversions, and totally recommend Tobias and his crew’s services.”
“Tobias has been unbelievable throughout the whole process and helped every step of the way, always thoughtfully analysing each element of the build so it was perfect. We had a lot to fit in to Nim on the technical side of things, and I am over the moon with how the van came together. His craftsmanship is second to none and the levels of care and detail have just been mind-blowing. I can’t go anywhere without people looking at Nim in amazement! Tobias has been a pleasure to work with and to get to know. I can’t recommend him strongly enough.”
“VANHAUS Conversions did an amazing job with our Mercedes Sprinter ‘The Vanizza’. The whole service was fantastic from start to finish and we couldn’t be happier with the end result. Tobias is incredibly skilled, diligent and creative and this shows in all of the unique and bespoke designs he creates for his clients, including us. He even managed to build in a sliding TV and desktop gaming PC for my other half, something we didn’t think possible at the start. We can’t thank Tobias enough for everything he did, the van surpassed our (very high!) expectations and we can’t wait to continue travelling around in it for many years to come. If you’re thinking of asking Tobias to work on your project, don’t hesitate - go for it! You won’t regret it.”
“Tobias has been nothing but outstanding throughout the whole process. Totally honest and open from the first phone call with an after sales approach that is second to none! His passion and skills are clear to see everywhere you look and no questions are left unanswered. If you’re looking for a top quality conversion, designed to suit your needs, and the knowledge to get the most out of it, you need not look any further!”
“From start to finish, my experience with Tobias at VANHAUS Conversions was fantastic! Tobias worked closely with me throughout the build to make my dream home on wheels. Nothing is too much trouble for him, and he always makes time to talk through details on the phone. I loved visiting at various stages of the build and seeing my vision become a reality. Tobias puts so much care and attention into his work, he’s incredibly skilled and such a perfectionist. As a result my van is beautiful and functional, perfect for full time living!”
Absolutely buzzing with my van build from Van House. From start to finish, the quality has been spot on — solid craftsmanship, clever design, and everything just works. You can tell Tobias and the team really care about the detail. The price was fair for the level of work and materials used, and honestly, the personal service was second to none. Nothing felt rushed or templated — they took the time to understand how I live and what I needed. It genuinely feels like a home, not just a van. If I ever build a second one, there’s no doubt — I’m 100% doing it with Tobias again. Highly recommended. — Micail
I researched different van conversion companies before opting for a Vanhaus conversion and have no regrets. My van is amazing and I love her!! From the first time I met Tobias it was evident he is passionate about his craft and has the skills to produce exceptional homes on wheels. Tobias listened to my rough ideas and created a van perfect for my requirements. It became apparent during the build that Tobias is excellent at problem solving, especially when I made some awkward (impossible!) requests and is also very patient when I then changed my mind a 100 or so times! It was a pleasure communicating with Tobias who I think was on my speed dial at one point and I appreciated his honest and up front nature. I am very grateful for all the work Tobias and Sami put into my van and would 100% recommend Vanhaus. My stunning van is very much admired wherever I go.
Tobias at VANHAUS conversions put his heart and soul into my Sprinter conversion. From start to finish he made sure my dream (and terrible drawings) became a reality. A perfectionist, the whole interior is beautiful and every measurement perfect. In the three years I was full time, I have had nothing but compliments on the quality. I would not hesitate to recommend Tobias to anyone wanting a unique build :)
Vanhaus offers a genuine bespoke service from start to finish. When i bought my van, the hunt was on to find someone who could create my dream van!!! Having spoken with a few companies i wasn't convinced they would be able to deliver exactly what i had visioned, for what would work for me.. When Vanhaus say “Bespoke every time” they really mean it. From the first meeting i knew i wanted Tobias to build my van. He spent a lot of time listening to my vision and getting to know me as a customer. He would always advise if he didn't think something would work, explain why, and come up with an alternative solution. Making the van work practically and aesthetically. He has meticulous attention to detail, and the finish quality is so high. His passion and creativity shines through every time! A very talented craftsman! “The Chief” is everything i hoped it would be. Everything works and is super user friendly and looks absolutely stunning. Vanhaus conversions look after their customers throughout the build and beyond. Communication was great all the way through and continued after i collected the van. The aftercare offers me reassurance as a solo traveller!!! Would highly recommend vanhaus conversions if you want a build like no other!!!! 🙌 🚎 Thank you Tobias and Sammy!!!
