A converted van may have insulation, wall panels, furniture, wiring or plumbing behind the damaged exterior. Make a list of those features before arranging the assessment.
Discuss who built the conversion and what documents you have. Ask which systems or interior sections affect access and whether specialist coordination is needed. Do not assume the body repair includes a conversion rebuild.
Have these details ready
- Conversion builder or build notes
- Equipment behind or beside the impact
- Any change in doors, windows or seals
Before the estimate
Do I need to remove the interior first?
Ask the shop before removing anything. The proposed repair and access requirements determine what should be secured or removed.
