Reviews from Previous Van Build Consultation Clients

“This was our first time converting a van and we found all of Engineers who Van Life’s resources invaluable throughout the process. With so much information freely available we hesitated paying for a consultation at first but the value Eric provided far exceeded the cost. We used our consultation to review our electrical plans and had so much peace of mind after chatting everything through and learning more from Eric. It was hands down worth the cost and more! If you need to review any components of your build you’re hesitant on or are just looking to chat more in depth definitely book a consultation. “

“Caught in a pinch being new to van life and my van as well, Eric was able to guide me through a video call on options to resolve my issue.  I work for the federal government and am unable to use public WiFi for my computer.  He outlined clearly for me what my two options were in order to be able to work from my van. I had made a plan in advance but did not realize it would not work for me in the mountains of southern California.  I highly recommend Eric and EngineersWhoVanLife to anyone dealing with IT issues or any other van issues.  Quick response, reasonable price, and most importantly knowledgeable folks.”

“I consulted twice- 1 hour each time about my pending DIY camper van conversion. Eric was very knowledgeable and answered all of questions completely. After each consultation he provided many follow up resources by email. I found each consultation to be very helpful. I strongly recommend this van life consultation service. After I finish a book I purchased about camper van electrical systems I will consult with this service again before buying batteries and electrical components for my electrical system.”

“Eric and Colby have been indispensable in my vanlife journey. I’ve utilized their one-on-one calls several times, from planning a headliner shelf to installing my water filter to repairing electrical issues. They’re responsive, knowledgeable, and creative in their solutions. I love that they both help me understand the what, how, and why of each step as I improve my tiny home on wheels!”
