Motorhome Restoration

Motorhome Restoration in Grimsby

Your motorhome has given you years of adventures — but the bodywork tells the story. Faded paint, chalky panels, rust spots, cracked fibreglass, and tired graphics can make even a well-maintained motorhome look past its best.

At CPRS (Grimsby) Ltd, we bring tired motorhomes back to life. Based in Tetney, we provide comprehensive restoration services for motorhome owners across Grimsby, Cleethorpes, and North East Lincolnshire. Whether you want to restore the original scheme or give your vehicle a completely new look, we have the skills, space, and equipment to do it properly.

Coachbuilt & Van Conversions

We work on both types of motorhome, and we understand they need different approaches:

Coachbuilt motorhomes typically have GRP (fibreglass) and aluminium panels mounted on a chassis. These are prone to oxidation, fibreglass cracking, and delamination. We repair the GRP, treat any corrosion, and respray to restore the original finish.

Panel van conversions (Ducato, Sprinter, Transit, etc.) are steel-bodied and can suffer from rust, stone chips, and general wear. For converted vans, we regularly apply VW-style two-tone paint jobs — a popular choice that transforms the look of the vehicle.

What We Restore

  • Oxidised and faded paintwork — brought back to a deep gloss or fully resprayed
  • Rust and corrosion — cut out, new metal welded in, sealed, and painted
  • Cracked or damaged fibreglass — professionally repaired and refinished
  • Dented or damaged panels — repaired or replaced and colour matched
  • Old decals and graphics — removed and replaced with fresh ones
  • Roof panels — restored, sealed, and refinished

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a motorhome restoration involve?

It depends on the condition of the vehicle. A typical restoration might include oxidation removal, rust treatment, fibreglass repairs, panel repair or replacement, a full body respray, and new decals or graphics. We assess your motorhome and recommend exactly what's needed.

Do you work on both coachbuilt motorhomes and van conversions?

Yes. Coachbuilt motorhomes and panel van conversions require different approaches — coachbuilt bodies often use GRP and aluminium, while van conversions are steel-panelled. We have experience with both and use the right techniques for each.

How long does a motorhome restoration take?

Most restorations are completed within 2-4 weeks, depending on the extent of the work. A simple respray will be quicker than a full restoration involving rust repair, fibreglass work, and panel replacement. We'll give you a clear timeline at the quoting stage.

Can you do a colour change on a motorhome?

Yes. For traditional motorhomes, most owners prefer to restore the original colour scheme. For panel van conversions, we regularly do VW-style two-tone paint jobs and custom colour schemes. We can match any colour you have in mind.

Can you fix faded, chalky paintwork?

Yes — this is one of the most common motorhome restoration jobs we do. UV exposure causes paintwork to oxidise and go chalky over time. Depending on the severity, we may be able to machine polish it back to a gloss, or the panels may need respraying for a lasting result.

Do you repair fibreglass panels?

Yes. GRP (fibreglass) is used extensively on coachbuilt motorhomes, and it's prone to cracking and chipping. We repair damaged fibreglass panels, build up any missing material, and refinish them to match the rest of the bodywork.
