Our Gardena California shop has been creating custom vans for some of the most adventurous travelers since 2020. Our process for building your custom adventure van takes into consideration the numerous lessons we learned when we built our very first van, and we apply them to your project. Our goal is to limit the mistakes by sharing our personal van life experience and put you on track for an affordable van conversion that will last generations.
Step One
Before we get into the nitty gritty of your van conversion, we start with a discovery call to better asses your needs and wants. No two van conversions are the same, so getting a better understanding of how you intend to use your van is the first step. Most commonly, we discuss the type of gear your travel requires, what appliances are a must-have, and decide on a basic plan for your van conversion. This process can happen over the phone or in person at our shop in Gardena, California.
Step Two
With a basic understanding of your van conversion and the needs your adventure has, we step into the second phase of the van conversion process. Generally, this step will include plumbing needs and wants, as well as the basics of building your battery system. Some van conversions require very little when it comes to plumbing, and others need more. We follow this same process for the electrical requirements of your van before moving on to the interior and exterior layout. If you're local to Southern California we would like to meet for step to so you can see the shop and ask specific questions.
Step three
Exterior modifications have become one of the most sought after services in the van conversion world over the last several years. The large blank canvas of a camper van allows for creativity and the chance to truly build something unique, just the way you like it. Much like the interior of you van, the exterior build process has endless oppurtunites to make your van conversion stand out. Our shop in Gardena, California has expierenced techs who've worked with every major van conversion manufacturer in the market.
Step Four
Power Plan! Every van conversion runs on some kind of power source. No two van builds have the same requirements, that's why we assign a complete step to designing your van electrical system. Whether you have a portable power station you want to run your van from, or you want to design a system from the ground up, this step in the van conversion process can take a few calls or meetings at our shop in Gardena, California to dial in. Step four requires open mindedness from both the customer and the van conversion tech.
Step five
We save the best and the most changed step in the van conversion process for last, and we do it for good reason. On average, customers change their interior layout three times. We understand that, and that's why we do it last. What you've seen in other vans and what we're built for other van conversion customers comes into play, and our goal is to get this right the first time to eliminate additional cost and unnecessary time spent. Having this meeting in person at our shop in Southern, California is best to be able to stand in your van and visualize the build coming together, assesing space needs, and determining the best course of action.
Step six
The money. Remarkaebly, some past clients were under the impression that their van conversion was going to be to less than what they had budgeted. That said, we take this part very seriously. All work and payment options are discussed personally with the founder of Statworks at our Gardenea, California location to ensure you're getting what you're paying for and there's no hidden cost. We offer flexible payment options to ensure you're paying for the build as it takes place and you can see your money being put to good use before your very eyes.
Step seven
The deposit is scheduling of your van conversion is one of the most exciting parts of the van conversion process. At our shop in Southern, California we will hammer out the final details, put your build on the schedule, and get to work! The next time you see your van it will look completly different and the excitement for your van life adventurous really take over. We ask that you give us time to work once we start your build and try to understand that we have other customers to tend to during this process and we won't always be available to chat and the drop of a dime. Although progress pictures and updates are sent, they're sent at specific benchmarks in the van conversion process to ensure we don't slow down build times for you and others.
Step eight
The half way point of your van conversion is an all important step. once this threshold is crossed, there's no going back. At the halfway point we bring you in to see firsthand just how far things have come on your van build. From the exterior modifications, solar system, battery bank, and more. This step requires your sign off and approval for us to move to the final stage, completing your van conversion. Although some changes can be made in this step, they generally start to add cost to your van conversion project, which is why we take things slow in the beginning to get it right.
step nine

This is a day of celecration and excitemtn from our team and your crew of wild adventurers.
