DIY campervan insurance & self-build campervan insurance
We cover your van during conversion and once converted - all covered under one policy.
We are able to arrange self build campervan insurance for home converted self build motorhomes and campervans at the same rate as professional conversions and purpose built motorhomes.
You can select fully comprehensive cover or, for conversions worth less than £5,000, third party fire and theft cover is available.
If you are in the process of conversion or just about to start the campervan insurance we will arrange for you will cover your vehicle during the period of conversion. The insurers do require that you are working towards a fully converted motorhome or campervan. You should be able to self certify that within 180 days you will have completed the conversion to the following standard:
- A door that provides access to the living accommodation.
- A bed, which has an approximate length of 1800mm or 6 feet. This can be converted from seats used for other purposes during the day, but must be permanently fixed within the body of the vehicle.
- A water storage tank or container on, or in, the vehicle.
- A seating and dining area, permanently attached to the vehicle. The table may be detachable but must have some permanent means of attachment to the vehicle. A loose table would not be acceptable.
- A permanently fixed means of storage, a cupboard, locker or wardrobe.
- A permanently fixed cooking facility within the vehicle, powered by gas or electricity. * see note below.

Most campervan owners will choose our comprehensive campervan insurance for their van, whether it is a campervan, day van, motorcaravan or motorhome. We can arrange insurance for motorhomes up to £80,000.
If your motorhome is valued at less than £5,000 we can offer Third Party Fire and Theft insurance.
