Customer Reviews
- We are so pleased with the final result. James hit every part of our brief and his suggestions for changes or alterations have all turned out to be correct. Overall we could not recommend the service, communication or final build highly enough. We feel our van is exactly the style and function we wanted but combined with James’s experience of living in and working on other vans. We would certainly use him again but we love our van so much we can’t imagine needing another! – Kaela Lamb via Google Review
- ‘In the run-up to the start of our build, James very patiently guided us through the various options and spent a long time finding ingenious ways to give us the layout and features that we wanted. Our new van is the smallest Homesmith to date, and we are delighted with it. The workmanship is outstanding. We would thoroughly recommend James and Sarah to anyone who wants a campervan that is individual as well as stylish. Homesmith have been a joy to work with.’ – Rod Holliman via Google Review
- ‘We agreed a timeframe and he came in as planned in fact slightly ahead. We also agreed his costs upfront and again came in as planned. A detailed cost breakdown was provided and updated throughout the project. Very clear and transparent process. Plenty of discussion as we needed along the way and always easy to contact. Regular photos as the work progressed and was always positive to act on our feedback. The end result was just what we had asked for. We are over the moon with the results. A pleasure dealing with James and Sarah and would highly recommend. Nice people to do business with.’ – Kevin McGurl via Google Review
