Do you build motorhomes, or only trailers?
Both. We build motorhome living bodies and fit them out on a suitable base vehicle, convert camper vans, and build towable caravans and trailers. We do not make the engine or the base vehicle itself.
Do you accept a custom idea or design?
Yes. You can bring an idea or a problem rather than a model from a list. We study it and tell you what is feasible, safe and buildable before any work starts.
Can you convert a van or vehicle I already own?
Yes, after we assess the vehicle's condition and whether it suits the conversion you want. We can also source a suitable van for you.
Can the interior, power and water be customised?
Yes. Layout, furniture, kitchen, bathroom, batteries, solar, air conditioning and water tanks are set in your specification.
Do you repair caravans and motorhomes not built by you?
Yes. Our maintenance department takes caravans and motorhomes from any maker, after assessing the condition, parts compatibility and whether the work can be done well.
Do you offer pre-purchase or pre-trip inspections?
Yes. We inspect condition and equipment before a purchase or a trip, within the agreed scope. It is not the official vehicle test and not a government certificate.
Can an old caravan be refurbished or repurposed?
Often, yes. We assess the body, chassis and systems first, then propose what is worth renewing, redeveloping or changing in use.
What stage is the Defender project at?
It is a real build in progress. The vehicle has been cut and chassis and base work carried out; the current stage is fibreglass body fabrication. It is not complete and not for sale.
What about the marine project?
Our 45 ft marine project is in progress. We will publish its details as each stage is confirmed. We also accept enquiries for marine builds, jet boats and refits.
How much does a caravan cost in the UAE?
We price each caravan against its written specification: layout, systems, finish and how far off-grid you want to go. You receive a written quotation for the agreed scope before any work starts. We don't publish list prices because every layout is different.
How long does it take to build a caravan?
It depends on the layout, systems and parts you choose. We confirm the build time in your written quotation.
Can I design my own layout?
Yes. You tell us how you travel and we draw the layout with you. Berths, kitchen, washroom and storage are agreed in writing before the build starts.
Can a caravan have a toilet and shower?
Yes, if the layout has room for it. A washroom with fresh, grey and black water tanks can be part of your specification.
Do you build off-road caravans?
Off-road suspension and underbody protection can be quoted as options, subject to your specification. Tell us which tracks you plan to drive and we will tell you what we can offer.
What vehicle do I need to tow a caravan?
That depends on the trailer's weight and your vehicle's towing capacity. Your specification states the trailer's weights, so you can check them against your vehicle's handbook before you order.
What licence do I need to tow a caravan in the UAE?
Towing rules are set by the traffic authorities and depend on the trailer's weight and your licence category. Check the current rules with the traffic department in your emirate before you order.
How do I register a caravan or trailer in the UAE?
Registration is handled by the traffic and licensing authority in your emirate. Ask them for the current requirements; we provide the documents listed in your quotation.
Can I visit your workshop?
Yes, by appointment. Our workshop is in Sharjah. Call +971 56 171 1000 to arrange a time.
Do you build mobile clinic or command trailers?
We accept enquiries for special-purpose trailers, including mobile clinics and command units. Send us your equipment list and we will quote against it.
Can we order several identical units?
Yes. For fleet orders we quote repeat units to one written specification.
Do you deliver outside the UAE?
We accept enquiries from around the world. Whether we can deliver to your country, and on what terms, is agreed per order and stated in your quotation.
Can I pay a deposit online?
No. We don't take payments on this website. Payment terms are set out in your written quotation.
When is caravan season in the UAE?
Google Trends data for the UAE (2022 to 2025) shows searches for ‘caravan’ peaking from October to January. If you want a caravan for the season, start the conversation early.
Do you repair or modify existing caravans?
Yes. Our maintenance department handles interior, fibreglass, electrical, water, air conditioning, paint, parts and modifications, and our workshop does welding and metalwork. We diagnose the cause first, then repair or redevelop the part.
