Thanks for your swift reply really appreciated.
Greg what did you use to connect the bottom of the waste to the pipe work?
@@Robbrown92 I used a piece of 40mm flexible drain hose and jubilee clip.
Why do you have the toilet waste access port on the inside of the van????.
@@margaretsweeney6268 because I didn’t want to cut through the main structure of the van and try to make it waterproof
We keep it very clean and there’s never any smell 😃👍🏼
Wow....a youtuber who is all about pro quality rather than insulting us with vain personalities and horrible music! How refreshing!!!👍
Thanks for your honest feedback it’s very much appreciated 👍🏼😃
Greg's Top Dog in this camper van self build world
I'm really hoping he stars his budget build VERY SOON.
hint hint greg 😉 😆
Wee tip for everyone. If you put your adhesive on in little circle shapes it will create a vacuum that will hold the panels.👌
Like that, thanks.
Thanks Greg, after watching some of your videos, I started to look after a xlwb sprinter to convert into a camper van. Thanks for the inspiration and looking forward to seeing more of your videos. All the best, Pops
I really enjoyed watching yogur vídeo. Great way of teaching how to build a shower not just for converting a van. Thank you!! Now, I just need a van!!
Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏼😊
Your work is superb! Loving these videos and im learning a ton! Thanks greg!
Greg is always about meticulous attention to detail. You really are appreciated!
Thank you for your support 👍🏼
Super helpful episode Greg, really like the way you have built the bathroom with minimal framework, compared to vertical 3x2 framing and double skinned walls that steal valuable space. Love it 👍🏻
A really comprehensive and thoughtful episode, your good forward planning really paid dividends with everything going together beautifully. Congratulations .
Ed Wild
Thank you Ed, it's been quite a challenge to plan in what order everything has to be done, not having done anything like this before. True what they say hindsight is a wonderful thing. :D
I love the way you explain so well. I don't have all those tools, clearly you are a genius, BUT I do think I can do this. Thanks💪
Hi Greg i find your videos very informative, q. ... it is usual practise to put the toilet cassette access on the outside of the van, but i can see that body shape - mouldings might make this difficult , internal access would be a lot easer. Do i assume that you do not get any toilet smell with this installation?
Just love the little tips you throw in! Very impressed with your quality of work, you are such an inspiration to us! Thank you!
Elize Prinsloo thank you and sorry I didn’t reply sooner. 😊
I’m with you there. I’m a complete novice but it’s giving me a bit of confidence to have a go at these things myself.
I am so glad I found your van build videos. Your craftsmanship is outstanding and an inspiration for me to build my an elegant camper van like yours. Other home built builds I've seen lean on the utilitarian side, but I want something that is also classy. Thank you for sharing your skills.
It's great to watch a true craftsman at work.
When I wanna learn how to fit something in my van, there’s only one guy I go to on UA-cam.
How to build a camper van with Greg, better than a professional conversion.
This is a BRILLIANT help to us "know nothings". Very nice slow and informed pace! Excellent attention to details! Wow! Thanks so much for sharing your talents with us!
I like that you itemised the parts in the video description. Very useful.
You are most welcome, i know its handy to have a source for some of these parts
Thanks ! I don’t know everything you say because my English isn’t good , but I learn on watching the videos. You take me, by yours movies , a lot of help for my van. Thank you very much !

Merci d'avoir regardé
Excellent help. Just going through the motions right now for van build and funny thing is, I got all the pvc, silicone and stuff left over from a kitchen hygiene fit out I did couple years ago and it didn’t even occur to me to use for the shower. Nice 1 geeza
Thanks for all your help and advice!! Very much appreciated!! Can’t wait to start my build! This makes it so much more achievable and very motivating knowing how to do it!! Your a legend!!
I’m really pleased the videos are helping boost your confidence and I wish you all the best with your build. 👍🏼😃
Great video, I have been watching them all. Also a great camera man - lady and of course your helper.
Cleaning up well on this part of the project my friend 😉😊
Off to watch part 2 👍🏼😊
Squeaky clean ;D lol
Love your work. Best shower install I've seen
I’m in the process of buying a sprinter van to turn into a camper, your videos are by far the best to follow and understand. I was quite uncertain about aspects of the building and designs. Your videos are brilliant. Thanks so much greg
David Stokes I’m really glad they are helping you a David. Thanks for watching.
I’ve been binge watching your videos. My husband and I are going to buy a Mercedes 4x4 and build it ourselves. It’ll be our weekend warrior so I’m so happy to see the technical aspects of everything you do since we’re both so analytical and we want to the know the why behind everything. Your videos are so informative. Thank you for creating them! We’re in California and looking forward to becoming part of the van community
Elizabeth Freyre that’s brilliant well you certainly have the weather for it.
4x4 are difficult to find here
Now I am even more sure that I can do it.! Thanks Greg!
I'm pleased it has helped you
Hi Greg, great series I have watched them all at least twice!! Especially the insulation, excellent!!
That’s great 😃 thank you very much 👍🏼
Very helpful. I'm gonna try and get a van and do this (hard finding full time permanent work). BTW Greg looks like Rico in Judge Dredd, Sylvester Stallone's brother 😉
has to be the best tutorial I’ve seen.
stephen windsor thank you very much.
I Agree. I very much like your workmanship.
Hi, my subconscious OCD sighs every time I watch one of your videos🤓. I also noticed you took your time with the most satisfying part of any build, peeling off the protective film😜.
Great video, good explanation of things at each stage. Well done
A competent craftsman is a joy to watch.
Very thoughtful build!
Greetings from Colorful Colorado. I've had to completely rebuild the aft 3 feet of a conventional travel trailer (bath/shower area) due to roof leak water damage, and I've done two cargo trailer conversions to campers. When I need to glue a piece of material to a wall, as in your shower build, I have found a pressure sensitive adhesive works well. You trowel the material onto the solid surface, (using a fine tooth trowel, 3/8 max) let it get tacky (the longer it air dries, the stickier it gets) then simply press your surface material into place. I'm not familiar with the adhesive you were using, and it might be great...but when you trowel on the pressure sensitive adhesive there are no air gaps, and it's not ever going anywhere. Warning, when you start to apply your cover sheet, make sure everything is lined up, because once you start to adhere it, it's like contact cement and is very difficult to adjust.
Hello from London Canada, excellent video and tips throughout. I'm still in the head to paper planning stage of my shower build for my Ram Promaster 3500 extended high roof. It's not as easy as many think to accomplish a well built functional DIY van build however you have taken a taunting task and somehow made it a much easier project with less stress and pitfalls. Thank you Robert in Canada
Robert, I am planning on using the same van as you. How is your build going?
@@RustyCas999 My van build has been a work in progress, expensive non-budget friendly project. It has also been coupled with huge life altering events. Unlike a lot of people who have documented their progress from start to finish I started with still images but soon left that behind in favour of doing a completed video and explanation. I will say that no two DIY van conversions will be the same. When my van is completed there will be no other like it. Just the same as Greg's Sprinter build it's totally unique and took hours of work in completion. At this very point due to a family medical problem my van is about 75% completed, I need to finish it but doubt I'll ever use it for its intended purpose.
Beautiful work.
Great video! Very helpful. Appreciate your attention to detail. I will consider “bedding” the shower pan in something so you have essentially a ‘solid’ pan - no flexing and feels more substantial. The shower in our camping trailer feels somewhat spongy.
Thanks again buddy , brilliant as usual .
I like the eyes on your vac!
LOL you do make it look so easy Greg 👍 and so quick too (if only)
Best Regards us up North 👍😀🐾
Wish I could have fast forward the build as you can in the edit, definitely taken a lot more time than I thought it would.
Greg Virgoe LOL you have done an amazing job tho 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
And very soon you can start to enjoy it
Best Regards to you and Lou
👍😀🐾
great video extra time certainly paid off with the fitment. For those not aware Aviation snips come in 3 types Left, Right and Straight. Make sure you have the straight for cutitng the PVC sheets
Every day you learn something new 👍🏼😃
Ahh dog sighting! :) As usual I love your videos, super professional and I know that I can trust your advice.
Thanks really good videos and info, take care
These videos are useful and very helpful well done . And thankyou
You are mostly welcome 🙏🏼
Thank you sir...every detail needed...awesome🤫
Great video . Thank you .
I love to see all this videos. Its great info but if i have to spend the money on all those fancy tools...i might get one that is all done and save the time...Cause time is money
Awesome mate, it is a professional job,
Alexander Cella thank you
So much advice thanks
Hiya Bud,
Another nice video done gr9t work Greg :-)
Many thanks
Amazing!!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks so endlessly for posting this incredibly detailed video. It’s amazingly helpful. I have just picked up my shower unit for my Hino box truck I converting by myself… so if I am stuck or I have more questions, I will definitely ask you if that’s ok?
It’s a bit harder to do these kind of plumbing things as a woman by myself but I am sure I can get it done too 😁
Thanks again. It’s so helpful to watch every step and your attention to detail is absolutely fabulous…. Love it 🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰❤️👍🚛
ty for a nice well done post
You’re welcome Bruce 👍🏼😃
Hi I like the way u explain things....uv got a knack for it...I'm looking forward to the van u do with just hand tools...that should be interesting..
I should know tomorrow if I have got the news budget van fingers crossed 🤞🏼
Hi,. Greg I love watching Your Videos
But I Have a Request That Can help You to Make more Views But first what thing you used to Cut open the Shower Hole,......when you Use a Tool or Material Please Write on The Screen what is it So we don't always have to Ask Everytime
Thank You
Love the paper trick at the end
The roll of lining paper was 2.99 and it made a perfect template 👍🏼😊
Flying to Manchester next Saturday to bring back a xlwb sprinter to Ireland watching all your videos last few weeks I really appreciate the time and effort you put into making them Greg 👍
Fireblade 100, nice one ☝️ hope all goes well with your build. Thanks for the support.

Hello Greg, really enjoying this build series, thanks for the detailed info in your videos. I'm refurbishing a Tischer Truck Camper unit in Norfolk and about to tackle the shower room, what thickness of wall panel did you use? They offer several sizes so uncertain which one would suit my purposes best, similar sub structure to your shower room. I'm also doing the European Tour soon. Thanks again.
Hi Greg
Really helpful video as always. Once you have drilled the holes for the shower waste, sink waste and any of the water pipes, how do you seal them? I have been trying to figure it out but can't seem to find any videos on it and was wondering if it was just a case of filling it with silicon after the pipe is in or if there's something else you can get. Any advice would be helpful!
At 6:53 - what is the grey paint on that surface, flecked with dots? Some kind of epoxy paint? Looks great by the way.
9:04 - that tiny detail of sloping the lip of the tray is astounding! I would have never thought of that. Your brain must be mulling these details over while you sleep. How do I make my brain more like yours?
I'm digesting all this information like a fine novel. Thank you for the quality work you do. It restores faith in good workmanship. Ever thought of teaching? You are a natural.
Hello 😇, the grey floor finish is Altro and we covered the whole floor before fitting any furniture. See this video for full details ua-cam.com/video/ZsQjSd1625I/v-deo.html
Re the tray, I can let you into a secret. I put a square bit of wood in first and there was a gap so that led me to think it must be designed with a slope in mind. Good idea though 😎
Teaching is an admirable profession but the pay here is very poor. That’s typical of these type of jobs. Very rewarding on another level.
Thanks for following along.
What stage are you at?
A proper home has a toilet and shower. A lot of builds don't have this, even my little campervan has a toilet and shower and I'd miss it if it wasn't there. A shower inside is not so important in really hot climates but why not fit one anyway if building a toilet cubicle, even if a bucket of water and battery operated shower head can be used in it to save expense if it's out of one's budget.
I see people have portaloos under seats and hidden in small cupboards but privacy is important I think plus the fact it won't feel like you're sh**ing or pi**ing in your kitchen lol, but seriously.
Can't wait until van tour vid!!!
Hi Greg, have really enjoyed the build series and your instructional and informative approach. it would be great to know now you have been using the shower for a while is there anything you would do differently and how is it holding up with the use and movement since compleating the build? Going to start a build myself later this year and have found this entire series an invaluable source for research so thanks for taking the time to share
I would also be interested to know if the PVA on plywood + PVC lining does the job :) I'm considering building the shower in the same way.
Hi Greg, Really helpful video as usual! I would like to ask about extractor fan install. I have the same extractor fan I think (Xpelair LV100 12v) and the unit is 87mm deep to back of motor. My van wall is probably only going to be around 60-63mm thick. It looks like your fan is fitted flush to the wall so just like to know if you had this problem and if so what was your solution? TIA
Thanks for this video- you make it look so easy. Could you advice which fan you used in the shower. I'm struggling to find anything suitable for our wet room Thank you.
I liked what u did with the waste tank,,drilling it out,,and replacing it with a tank connector....LATERAL THINKING.
The inlets we’re just too small to be practical and I could see them getting blocked a lot
Nice job, Greg. One thing I'm having a hard time finding in any video where there is a hole drilled in the van floor, is the proper way to prevent corrosion in the hole and how to properly seal it from under the van. Would love to know how you did that.
Hello Ian, cut a hole just slightly largr than your drop out vent or pipe etc, file any rough edges off of the cut edge, paint with hammerite to seal the raw metal edges.
Place your pipe or drop out vent inthe hole and seal all around the top and underside with sikaflex 512. After it had cured I did spray the underside with waxoyl but that was only for added protection.
@@GregVirgoe Great info! Thx Greg
Hi Greg, we are doing our van conversion and following your videos as best possible. Thank you for being so thorough! It really helps. We were just wondering what water heating system you have used for the shower? We have seen some Whale under vehicle water heaters but they are REALLY expensive. Any advice on what you used as some people are sharing heating systems which aren't safe for van use. Thanks in advance.
Great Video Greg as always , I have seen time and time again as I built my van , just a question have you got a link for the hinges of the bathroom door ? I did not find on the part list ? Thanks in advance
Hi Greg, great video as usual. What distance do I need to be able to slide the cassette out into the van??
I see you used PVC sheeting to line inside the shower. I was thinking of using white Alupanel (aluminium composite panels, two sheets of aluminium with epoxy compound/foam between the two layers 3mm thick. Any feedback using aluminium sign panel over PVC sheeting. I was hoping of curing the aluminium panelling to the shape of my roof bus (toyota coaster) and direct sticking to the bus frame.
My only other thought is in regards to fitting panels together. You did great tight joins between the vertical panels, however I was thinking that a larger gap might be better. My experience comes from the pain of having a fibre cement sheet flat roof with tiles on it once laid by a builder that abutted the sheets directly next to each other with sealant in-between. The manufacture recommended a 10mm gap between the sheets to be filled by sealant to give enough roof for thermal expansion. As you could imagine any movement say 1mm flex in the van with a small gap of 1mm would be 200% elongation required for the sealant. If you left a larger gap and pushed sealant into the gap say 5mm any movement would be better accommodated by the sealant's /adhesives elongation properties.
Hi mate. Plumber by trade. An angle grinder with a porcelain tile blade cuts stuff like that sheeting quick and clean. Doesn’t throw the sheet about or risk damaging 👍👍👍
UrbanARK overland, I find that abrasive wheels tend to melt PVC rather than cut it.
do you have link for ceiling panels you used sir? thanks for the great vid
Thanks again for this Greg. So is the reason people put their toilet waste inside the van due to the structure of the van as you never seem to see motorhomes with the waste cassette point and the filler inside.
Hi Greg where did you get tour shower drain from, busy concerting our own be crafter :) thanks for the inspiration 👍
Hi Greg. Eagerly watching all your videos just hoping I can make half as good a job. I am at the planning stage and it would help massively if you do could you tell me what the external dimensions of your shower/toilet room are?
Thank's, you really are skilled! How much pressure is in the shower? Can you show us the water flowing? Or perhaps a vid showing us everything in the van in use.
I think I’m the van your video I show it working there is a lot of pressure.
You would not want to see me using it. Trust me 🤣😂
Hi I am a joiner and well impressed with your work.so can I say you call it mastic to seal shower is it not silicone. Also when you fixed king span to roof why could you not get he fit 10 mm less and then run expanding foam in gap this would also stick it in place. But I must say this is the best build on you tube by a long way.looking forward to watch more videos regards kevin
Hi Greg, loving your videos they are sooo helpful! Just wondering if you have any advice or videos regarding the installation of the bathroom extractor? Thank you
Clair Sulley no I didn’t do a video of that because it wasn’t my best choice. So didn’t want to recommend it. I ended up putting a 12v AC fan in running off a mains transformer so I have to use my inverter. It’s not a good way of doing it and would be better if can find a 12v DC fan but not many nice ones about. Sorry that doesn’t help you much.
@@GregVirgoe thanks for the reply, I'm also having trouble finding a 12v DC fan, want to avoid having the use the transformer? 🤔
Hi Greg, I’m converting a sprinter and your videos are extremely helpful so many thanks! Just a quick question on your shower install, did you put a light in there and if so, did you use anything special e.g moisture resistant etc. Thanks in advance mate 👍
Watch our van tour video you will see what I did.
Used waterproof led strip above an opaque Perspex ceiling like a light box
Hi Greg- Fabulous work - Even as an engineer and seasoned DIYer I am really enjoying your videos and picking up a lot of useful tips. Thank you! I have a question about why you decided to have the loo cassette pull out into the van rather than externally? Is it to do with the shower drain positioning versus the chasis ? or that you didnt want / couldnt suitably site and fit the required door on the outside? Many Thanks. Jon
Hello Jon, it was mainly because there is a lot of steel supports and van wall to cut out and remove to get the door to go outside and it would be halfway through the plastic trim which would have to be cut, the van side is curved and would need to be filled with tons of mastic, the list of negatives was huge. We have been in a van with a cassette inside and it seals itself when removed and with good hygiene, it was really easy to deal with and no smells at all. Easier solution all round I think.
Hi Greg, Thanks so much for doing these videos, they are so useful. Your attention to detail is Amazing. I am starting a Renault Master build in Sydney And will copy a lot of your ideas. Just a question on your shower, you did mention in your Q &A video if it was a good idea or not. Now you have used your van for a while, if you did another build would you put in a shower and toilet ?
I only just have room for one and like your design of 975 x 700 but it is a lot of space that may not get well used, when we can shower outside in Australia quite easily. Love to hear your experience so far?
Cheers Tim
That’s a good question and I’m not planning to put a shower in this nee van build. We don’t use the one in ours and use other services which are easily available. I will be putting in a toilet though as that is essential.
Hi Greg, I'm currently doing my own van build and thanks to your amazing videos you have really helped me throughout. I'm stuck on the solution for the window surround. I can see yours looks great and wondered if you made it or purchased it. Many thanks...
I’m glad the videos have been useful to you. Have a look at this one for the windows finish. ua-cam.com/video/nwgCNsEidaA/v-deo.html
@@GregVirgoe perfect, many thanks
Hiya Greg glad i watched this as i'm getting a 2007 sprinter can you tell me the overall size of the shower and loo tray please
thanks
Jack
Thanks Greg, I found Polyprop for my shower 3mm and 5mm really flexible the HB40 adhesive looks good is this better than SikaFlex to use.
Cheers

Hi Greg, watched most of your videos at this stage and their by far
the best when it comes to builds especially the shower cubicle and watts law, one quick question if that's
Possible using the online voltage calculator I know they take voltage drop into account but do they allow for ×1.25 speak about in your video
Hi Greg
Thanks for the videos
Can I ask what thickness that hygiene board was for the shower ?
Hi Greg, been busy watching video's as you do... I am about to tackle this soon... can you advise where you got your heater pipe from please... was over at Magnum yesterday and forgot it...!! Doh..
Hi Greg what's the best way to attach the wall boards for the bathroom to the floor and side walls of the van
Hi Greg, could you clarify something for me please. I need to purchase a shower kit (head, etc.), and i find mixed reviews and opinions whether "normal" showers would work with electric pumps or not. In theory, when the thumb lever is released the water is shut off. I read reviews that say for pumped showers where the pump is not pressure sensitive, this means the pump continues to try and pump water but without water flowing. This risks damaging the pump motor and blowing the unit. However some pumped showers are regulated by pressure - in circumstances where the water is stopped from flowing, the pump switches off. (I will be using the Shurflo pump you recommend.) let's clear this up once and for all: do we need to buy the "electric pump convertible motorhome showers" (as usual, priced way over the "normal' shower kits), or will these "traditional" showers work just fine. As I could not find link to what shower kit/head you recommend, this is the one i am considering getting:

Hi Greg I'd like to ask about your extractor fan in the shower, is it a 12 volt and did you wire it straight to your light switch or did you wire it up separately. Tia 👍 👍
goood question...
Hi Greg, am converting a Sprinter in Ontario, Canada and have very much enjoyed (and benefitted from) your expertise. I was particularly interested in your shower install, but was hoping to see what the drain looked like from under the van - is there another video in which I can view it. Thanks!
The build videos are arranged into one playlist that you can scroll through. Here is the grey waste video for you ua-cam.com/video/VKolPhQfHLQ/v-deo.html
@@GregVirgoe Thanks - I assume the shower drain was sealed with mastic like the sink drain? Or does it take a large nut as it seemed to be threaded?
@@kevinrobertson7991 5:00
Hi Greg. Any reason you didn't use any of the trims you can buy with the Pvc sheets? Presume you've found it to be watertight butting them next to each other and using sealant? Thanks!!
Great video!. Could you point me in the direction of how you added the services to the bathroom. ie cavity wall? Thank You
All the build videos are in one playlist in order so you can scroll though and watch what you need. Here is the shower one 👍🏼 ua-cam.com/video/vpezHyhLjxI/v-deo.html

@@GregVirgoe Well done Greg, can of beer saved for our next meet👍😀 as I did some searching today for one of these as the shower is next. Cheers and stay healthy & safe
Greg - Just starting to plan my van conversion. Your attention to detail is awesome. With the toilet is there any reason you chose not to have the cassette facing outward and create a access hatch in the van side? Secondly, can you help build my van?
TinRobot I didn’t want to cut through the van at low level because it would have been halfway through the plastic trim and trying to weather proof it would have been difficult. We don’t have any problem with it being inside it’s perfectly sealed and always very fresh in the shower. We use the Thetford sachets and have a nice smell.
Happy to answer any questions if that helps 😊
Did you feed the shower fan off the 230 supply or the 12v side? Struggling to find a 12v dc fan!
Great scribing and workmanship - have you had any issues with the joints being 'too' tight ? expansion and contraction? any leaks or squeaks? I always enjoy your vids :)
Interested as well. Any feedback appreciated

Greg,you have chosen to have access to your cassette toilet inside the van,as apposed to having an exterior access. Any problems with odour doing it your way?
