Dream Vans has a passionate team of van conversion enthusiasts. Our team is made up of avid explorers and craftsmen that truly care about the work that we create and our entire service to our clients.
Our mission is to build and design van conversions that make you feel like you’re in the beauty and comfort of your own home, while also having all the amenities and systems needed to take you on your off-grid adventures!
From years of experience, we have honed in on our knowledge of how to build quality, long-lasting and incredibly thoughtful van conversions to give you confidence in your home on wheels while on the road.
CORE VALUES OF OUR BUSINESS –
INTEGRITY OF WORK –
From behind the walls all the way to the final finishing touches, we make sure to use the highest quality, most eco friendly and non-toxic building materials to make sure these conversions are built with absolute durability and safety.
PRACTICALITY –
The owner Johnny Davies is an avid adventurer and has spent many years experiencing first hand what traveling in a van conversion is like, and what is necessary for a fun, safe and memorable adventure. From this knowledge Johnny and his team have designed their conversions in such a way that every square inch is built with intention and practicality.
CUSTOMER CARE –
From the moment you speak with us on the phone to years down the line, we want you to experience and feel our genuine support and care. We are not mass-producing vans conversions and therefore can really care for each individual client and make time for any and all needs.
With a 3 year/36,000 miles warranty we stand behind our builds with confidence.
Electrical System –
The electrical system in this build utilizes all Victron components. Victron is the leading brand of electronic appliances, built in Germany and known in the industry as the highest quality of any brands available. The entire system was built under the guidance and instructions of one of Victron’s very own ambassadors.

This van conversion is built with long trips in mind; you could of course only use it for trips up to the mountains to ski on the weekends, but it is also built to be very comfortable long term in. With a very large fridge, water tank, tons of battery power and appliances such as the water that heats up just by driving, we’ve made it so that you don’t need to worry about running out of food, power or water while in the back country enjoying peace and quiet.

- High Grade Water Filter
- Interior Shower

Off Grid Air Conditioning: Dometic RTX 2000 – This is a highly efficient 12v A/C which you can run without being connected to shore power as there is enough power coming from batteries. So you could be in the middle of the Mojave desert in the middle of summer, sleeping cool as a cucumber.
Starlink – We’ve installed a Starlink on the roof for high speed internet anywhere you go; You can turn this device on or off as needed.
Maxxair Fan (7500 Deluxe) – Running this quiet 12V fan while you sleep with the skylight window ajar will provide an excellent cross-breeze for a fresh night’s sleep.
Insulation – The entire ceiling and walls are insulated with high quality Sheeps wool from Havelock – A New Zealand based company that provides a non toxic solution to insulation; with incredible moisture wicking properties this method of insulation is second to none.
Windows/Lighting – Bringing natural lighting was an important aspect of design in this build. We opted for 2 rear windows and one large sliding door window that has the ability to open up while maintaining privacy. There is also a large Dometic Skylight over the bed (25’x19”); it can fully open up or be covered with the blackout blind for sleeping. If you’ve ever been in a van conversion without a skylight and then experienced one with a skylight you’ll know how important this feature is!!
All the windows have a custom cover, made from waterproof material, that effortlessly magnetizes to the frame of the window for complete blackout privacy.
