North County San Diego
North County San Diego's Custom Van Builder
We're based in Encinitas, right in the heart of North County. Sprinter, ProMaster, Transit, and cargo trailer conversions built for the surf, sand, and open road that makes this area home.
Why North County Clients Choose Us
North County San Diego is where we live and work. Our shop is in Encinitas, which means you're not driving an hour into some industrial park in a different county to check on your build. You can swing by after a morning surf session in Leucadia and see exactly where things stand.
We're owner-operated. The person you talk to during the consultation is the same person building your van. No sales team, no project managers playing telephone, no surprises when you pick up the finished rig. You get regular photo updates through the entire process, and the shop door is always open for visits.
North County has a growing van life community for good reason: world-class surf breaks, easy access to the desert and mountains, and a laid-back culture that just fits the lifestyle. We build vans that make the most of all of it, whether you're weekend camping up the 5 or living full-time on the road.
