2017 , Just thinking of options for rear floor. Sides and ceiling are done need to move onto the floor now and take the pain to get the rock ‘n’ roll bed fitted. options
1) VW rubber load liner, I will need to get a swb van version so it doesn’t have the seat holes.
Or
2) insulate ply line and...
I have a carpet fitted to my van which is now pretty dirty and past saving. What’s the best flooring to use in the back of a day van / camper..also the best place to buy it. Price conscious and his is it stuck down if you go the Altro route?
So, just started my ply floor. Made an exact template from cardboard and hot glue. Will then make a 3mm MDF full size floor which will be my master template for the future. I will use this to make my 12mm ply floor.
Hi all I’m looking for recommendations for companies to supply a plywood floor for a T6, based in the northeast, already wasted money buying a very poor fitting one off eBay, I’ve seen a few camper conversion companies doing some really good ones but they don’t post and are to far away.. any...
For sale a 12mm ply floor for a SWB T6.
Was fitted but realised with the floating floor I put under it, it was too tall. Had to get the 9mm.
Has been trimmed to fit with the carpeting and has light dried glue on it.
£20. Location Basingstoke. Collection only.
Hello, just wondering how much Altro flooring i need to do a Swb Kombi? Does it just come in just one width and you specify the length? The one i have my eye on is a wood effect one so can't see anyone selling the pre-cut ones in this style,thanks very much
Having a crisis of confidence!
which of the many Sikaflex/Sikabond adhesive/sealants do folk recommend for sticking the batons to the metal floor before fixing new plywood floor?
cheers Mark
I'm currently fitting my floor to my t6
I've got a 8mm MDF veneers with an additional 1mm oak either side (10mm floor total)
Do I need to lay batons?...
Can I not just bond it directly to the metal corrogations of the van floor??
The mdf/oak will be sealed with an oil.
Thankyou for any...
Hi guys just wondering how you would insulate and sound deaden the floor?
I used silent coat and dodo thermo van liner for walls but not sure what to use for the floor?
Also whats the process for putting an altro floor down?
I currently have a factory Kombi rubber floor.
Is it best to do the electrics before I carpet and lay the altro flooring?
I was hoping to do the carpeting first but I was just speaking to a local converter and he said to do the electrics either before or at the same time.
My original plan was to put down the 12mm floor then lay the altro...
What's the best sound deadening for a Kombi floor?
The roof, sides and wheel arches are all done, and was always planning to do the floor as well. I think the 20s generate a lot of road noise so figured this could be a nice little job for the B/H weekend.
Are folks sticking with a 2mm Dynamat...
have got the rails in now and am having conflicting feelings about the best flooring to put down before carpet or Altro.
What’s the best to use ply? Or as I’ve seen in @Coradia63 post it looks like OSB?
Fitting Caravelle seat rails
Any suggestions?
Hello all,
Has anyone used the altro wood effect flooring in their vans?
I'm looking for a wooden style floor in my van, what have you used? I've seen some with very narrow planks and I'm looking g for something about 150/180mm wide
If you have any pictures that would be great
Cheers

Is anyone using Karndean flooring (or Karndean style) in their van?
I've noticed quite a few convertors are using it now and it does look good.
Any pros/cons?
How hard wearing is it?
Do you bond it to the ply when laying it?
Cheers.
So my van was lined etc by NEWWAVE in 2018 and I'm very happy with it....but I still find there's a lot of road / tyre noise and I'd like to tackle it.
One area that I think may be the issue is the floor. It's currently standard VW rubber flooring and I'm thinking this needs to be replaced with...
I have glued 9mm batons to the floor of my van.
I now need to put the 12mm ply floor down.
I was planning on screws, but 2 converters I spoke to both recommended sikaflex and said the never screw the floor down.
Looking for peoples opinions on this.
Thanks
