Conversion only, without the van. Electrical, a wet bath and custom cabinetry move the price most. Ranges are what builders commonly quote in the US, not offers.
Short answer
A professional camper van conversion typically costs $30,000 to $120,000 or more in the US, not counting the van. Electrical capacity, plumbing (especially a wet bath) and custom cabinetry move the price most; once the van is at the shop, most conversions take 6 to 16 weeks.

Camper van conversion questions
How much does a camper van conversion cost?
Professional conversions are commonly quoted from about $30,000 for a simple weekender to $120,000 or more for an off-grid build with a wet bath, not counting the van. Electrical capacity, plumbing and cabinetry are the big variables.
Do I need to buy the van first?
Not always. Many builders source vans, and some have stock chassis. Tell us if you don't have one yet and we will match you with builders who can supply it.
How long does a van conversion take?
Most shops quote 6 to 16 weeks once the van is with them, and many have a waiting list before that. Starting the quote process early is the easiest way to save time.
Is it free to get quotes?
Yes. Builders pay to receive matched requests and we share yours with no more than 4 of them.
