We needed a few things done on our Airstream 8 years after Rodney and American Airstream rebuilt our 1960 Tradewind Landyacht. Two weeks after we brought it in, it was finished! We needed maintenance with a new rubber roof, switched out our sink from a double to single, and a few other things. We even got a wash and wax due to the dust storms that had come through in the time we had it with Rodney. Thank you!!

Your Home on Wheels: Reimagined, Refreshed, Revitalized
Imagine stepping inside your RV, Airstream, or vintage trailer, and instead of a generic or dated space, you find an interior that perfectly reflects your personal style, maximizes every inch, and offers unparalleled comfort.

This gap between standard and spectacular is where your vision takes flight.

We go beyond simple updates, offering comprehensive transformations that redefine your mobile living space with custom layouts, refreshed aesthetics, and intelligent space optimization.

More About Interior Remodeling
The interior of your RV, travel trailer, or Airstream is more than just a place to sleep; it’s your kitchen, your living room, your office, and your sanctuary—all on wheels. While vintage rigs possess undeniable charm, their original layouts and finishes may not always align with contemporary lifestyles or a traveler’s specific needs. Expert interior remodeling goes beyond simple upgrades; it’s a strategic process of reinventing your mobile living space, ensuring it’s not only beautiful and personalized but also highly functional, efficient, and comfortable for every journey.
Why Choose a Professional RV Interior Remodel?
Investing in a professional interior remodel for your vintage RV or Airstream offers a host of benefits that significantly enhance your travel and living experience:
Tailored Space Optimization:
- Factory layouts often don’t maximize every inch. A custom remodel allows for the precise utilization of space, creating solutions like integrated storage, multi-functional furniture, or redesigned traffic flow.
- This makes even compact RVs feel more open and organized, directly improving your daily comfort.
Personalized Aesthetics & Style:
- Your RV should reflect you. A remodel allows you to completely transform the visual appeal, updating worn surfaces, outdated color schemes, and generic finishes.
- Choose from a vast array of materials, textures, and designs to create an interior that genuinely feels like home on wheels, whether your taste is modern minimalist or cozy classic.
Enhanced Functionality & Comfort:
- Beyond looks, remodeling can dramatically improve how your RV functions. This includes upgrading galley layouts for better workflow, redesigning sleeping areas for superior comfort, or adding dedicated workspaces.
- Integrating modern, RV-specific appliances and improving lighting schemes significantly boosts convenience and livability.
Increased Value & Longevity:
- A thoughtfully executed interior remodel not only enhances your immediate enjoyment but also significantly increases your RV’s market appeal and resale value.
- By addressing underlying issues like hidden water damage or outdated infrastructure during the remodel, you also contribute to your RV’s overall longevity.
Our Comprehensive RV Interior Remodeling Process
Our approach to interior remodeling is a collaborative journey, blending your vision with our expertise in RV design and craftsmanship. We ensure every step is precise and purposeful:
In-Depth Consultation & Design Blueprint:
- We begin by understanding your lifestyle, travel habits, aesthetic preferences, and specific needs for your RV.
- Our team assesses your current interior, discussing possibilities for layout changes, material selections, and system upgrades.
- We then create a detailed design blueprint, including sketches or renderings, ensuring clarity and alignment before any work begins.
Careful Demolition & Foundational Assessment:
- Existing cabinetry, flooring, wall coverings, and other interior elements are carefully removed.
- This crucial step allows us to thoroughly inspect the underlying structure (walls, ceiling, subfloor, framing) for any hidden water damage, rot, or structural issues that should be addressed before building anew.
Structural Modifications & System Integration:
- If your new layout requires changes to internal walls, bulkheads, or framing, these modifications are precisely executed.
- Existing electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and HVAC ducting are assessed and rerouted or upgraded to accommodate new appliance placements, lighting fixtures, or custom features. This ensures all systems integrate seamlessly and safely.
Insulation & Soundproofing Upgrades:
- During the reconstruction phase, it’s an ideal time to enhance your RV’s insulation, improving thermal efficiency and sound dampening for a more comfortable experience in varying climates.
Custom Fabrication & Installation:
- This is where your vision truly takes shape. All custom cabinetry, furniture (dinettes, sofas, beds), and specialized storage solutions are meticulously fabricated in our workshop using high-quality, lightweight, and durable materials suited for RV use.
- These custom pieces are then expertly installed into your RV, ensuring precise fit, secure mounting, and optimal functionality.
Finishing & Aesthetic Details:
- The final layers of transformation involve installing new flooring (vinyl, laminate, wood), applying fresh wall coverings or paint, and adding custom trim work.
- New lighting fixtures, hardware, window treatments, and any other decorative elements are carefully selected and installed to complete your unique interior aesthetic.
- Modern, RV-specific appliances are installed and tested for optimal performance.
Understanding Interior Remodeling Costs & Value
The cost of an RV interior remodel is highly variable, reflecting the depth of transformation, the materials chosen, and the level of customization. It represents an investment in your comfort, functionality, and the long-term enjoyment of your mobile home.
Factors Influencing Cost:
- Scope of Remodel: A basic refresh versus a complete gut and redesign with layout changes.
- Material Selection: Choices for flooring, countertops, cabinetry finishes, upholstery, and appliances (e.g., standard laminate vs. solid surface, new vs. reused appliances).
- Customization Level: Extensive custom cabinetry, built-in furniture, or unique features will increase costs.
- Underlying Repairs: Any unexpected discoveries like water damage or structural issues during demolition will add to the budget.
- Labor Hours: The intricate, hands-on nature of custom interior work.
A professional RV interior remodel, especially for a vintage Airstream or classic trailer, not only provides a personalized and comfortable living space but also significantly enhances your RV’s functionality, extends its usable life, and increases its market appeal and resale value. It’s an investment in countless future adventures and memories.
