Quick and dirty - run, find a different builder. The long version, we met with the owner, and gave…read morehim our drawings and requirements, example, we wanted everything inside made from ¾ wood to our surprise only one interior wall on the closet was ¾ everything else was 1/2". If you start looking and put a square on things nothing about the inside cabinets is square, level or straight which is quite distributing. On the outside one side of the camper fits tight to my exterior boxes the other side is off by 1/2 inch over 36 inches which is very noticeable. Some of the outside access doors are out of square as well, again very obvious. When we came to picked up our camper wasn't finished and had issues like the front air dam was point down and not level it was hitting the cab of my truck when we set it on the bed (they don't provide a rubber mat to put the camper on). He was able to rework it and level it after 3 days of my expense at a hotel, but it still had more issues I found out later on. Let's start with the aluminum framing, one would think everything would be built like a house and the windows and outside compartments are framed in, wrong he does a standard 2' on center aluminum frame but if you have a window or compartment door that needs to go there, he just cuts it out. How do I know, I have a pretty expensive thermo imager camera and I can see the heat from the aluminum frame from the foam insulation. So, a lot of the wall framing is cut off at the windows or the compartment doors and the main outside framing is the only thing that holds it together which is scary, thankfully this camper is on a flatbed so it doesn't move a lot and is bolted down in 6 places. The new roof he missed drilled a hole and filled it with silicone. The roof does not fit properly it is too tight in some areas and overhangs in other area by more than 1". The front of the roof does not sit in the cradles as it should, the cradle needs to be a ¼ deeper so when you lower the roof it's not beating again the cradle right now the gelcoat is already breaking away. The Pop-top fabric is torn in one spot and patched with a gob of silicone. Its hard to see unless the roof is up on a sunny day but it's a 1" tear which is disappointing for something new. The roof only had 3 lifts support 2 in the front and 1 in the back to one side, I had him give me another lift since 3 lifts for four corners made no sense at all. The cabinets are a mere face being held together and supported with L brackets and silicone, not a box like you would think, just a face with brackets and short pieces of wood going here and there glued with silicone and tied to the 1/8 inch wall panel with L brackets. The dining room seat box is just 2 sided and silicone L brackets screwed to a 1/8' interior wall. The Proplex heater was not installed per manufacture specifications, the exhaust was not properly distanced and ran through the cabinets. Per manufacture it should never been installed since it has to be mounted on the floor and exhausted out through the floor. He never read the instructions, or he should have suggested something else. We had a propane leak from when we first looked at it that had not been resolved, one of the hoses had a bad seat, I found more silicone on the fittings. The 2 propane tanks were just secure with just a 1" nylon strap tied together, no mounting or bracket to hold them down from bouncing. Incorrect sizing on drinking water fill pipe was filled with silicone to make it work. The Stove cut out was done too big creating a visible gap that was filled with aluminum channel on both top and bottom. Wires to a few of the switches came out of the connection (sta-kons) more than just a few. Cushions to covert dining area to bed were cut too big by 3" of length and 1.5" of width, I spent $1,200 to have them redone on all 4 cushions. Dining table was screwed into wall but there was nothing to support it. just flopping and pulling the wall with it. I basically tore out everything in the camper and redid it using what I could, if I could have taken it back and get 1/2 the money I paid for this camper I would. Sure, he gives a 1 year warranty - I called him out on it and was told me to drive the 23 hours one way and leave it with him for 1-2 months to fix it. If you're having one built you need to be there and take pictures though the whole process and hold him accountable. If you're looking to buy one or have one made look somewhere else is my opinion. I can go on and on with the issues, I spent the last 15 weekends fixing everything, I had a fiberglass guy fix the front nose air dam so the roof lays flat now only then I found out under the nose air dam the camper isn't finished off at all, some of it didn't even have the fiberglass over it or installation on it you could see the backside of the inside wall. See the photos, this is just a few that i have taken. One last thing, i was told the camper should weigh around 2500 lbs, it came in at 4000.
