Made it look so easy, can't wait to have a mental breakdown whilst failing miserably !
Thanks for that .. I learned a lot .. Mainly that this is in no way something I’ll be trying to do 😀😆
😂😂😂
Its easier than you think 😉
I considered it, my hands are too arthritic these days. I think I'll pay someone. Great job you made of that.
😂😂😂 yup I was like i can do this.. after watching this I'm like don't do it😂😂 I'll fk it right up 🤓
Lmfao same ha ha good video though im a joiner not a carpet fitter ha ha
This is the best video on carpeting that I have seen. Thank you very much for the detail and tips. I now feel confident to have a go myself.
Thanks, I’ve recently lined my van out after watching your videos and I have to say I’m very impressed with myself. Just watched this again and what I found tricky so did you and I think the finish is comparable. Thanks for your guidance 👍
By far the most in depth guide I've come across for lining the van, brilliant mate!
Thank you for your kind words. We certainly have fun making the videos
Thank you for a very comprehensive explanation and demonstration of how to use carpet in trimming, I learnt a lot from this and have more confidence to have a go on a less difficult project than you have shown. You have a great approach to sharing your knowledge . Cheers from down under in Auss.
Thank you George, thats very kind of you to say.
The definitive carpeting video - the only one you need to watch! Excellent, thanks for posting.
W💖W, love watching how you professionals go about doing your job. Enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks🙏🏿
You make it look easy but truly you are a master at this! Amazing job. Thanks
Thank you for your kind words Pamela, Its taken some practice for sure
Thanks so much for this excellent tutorial - really thorough information and clear instructions. I just finished lining my transit - it looks awesome! :)
Thank you for your video. As someone in the US who is building a UK styled Transit Connect, this video has answered many of my questions! Thank you!!
Brilliant you guys I've just started following you really love how your honest in price and not just trying to sell your own services, but real honest information for anybody doing DIY well done shows alot about your company and character
Mesmerizing perfection. A thing of beauty. Couldn't stop watching even though I won't be carpeting my van! Glad to have found your channel, despite no VW - having just bought a Citroen relay lwb :-)
Super helpful video!
We’ve just bought ourselves a T3 camper project and I’m seriously considering taking this approach for the inside.
Michael:I am just to start carpeting my Van. Glad I found this great professional tutorial. Thanks for taking the effort to creat this film!!
Thank you this is so helpful and the first video that I found for putting up upholstery without removing all the panels. I have wood paneling up already but a lot of it is glued and screwed and would be a real challenge to take off the wall so this is reassuring to see that I could just spray and carefully apply the carpet and have it conformed wall the little irregularities I have. Thanks for this great work!
Wow! This is so well done. The one piece job looked really difficult at first but the way you completed the whole process made the look that much better. The video of this installation is exceptional, very detailed and thorough. The installation itself is amazing.
That is THE best van lining I've ever seen anywhere on YT. The insulation and the carpeting are so professional they are definitely something to aspire too. The one piece carpeting idea is definitely scary but the result is breathtakingly good!
Thank you so much for your kind words, CVC
This is THE best instructional vid I've seen on fitting campervan carpet. Thanks for sharing your tips!
Bit the bullet and carpet lined my t5 today, have watched this video soooooo many times, I even had the music playing in my head. Used the materials recommended from bare metal to sound proof and insulation, the results I have to say we're bloody excellent, have two sore thumbs due to the thumbing it in !!! Needs to be the next t-shirt #thumbitin ... Thank you Leigh and the crew ... I have done the VSR all the wiring for lights etc and extra sockets at the rear , new floor and panels, all under your guidance. Peeps if you haven't become a patron, please consider it so that more quality videos come our way. 👍👏🏻🙃😍
Could anyone else smell glue watching this? Fantastic job, love to try this myself and this is a brilliant how-to. Thanks!
You need a mask for sure when doing the job, the fumes are very potent! Thank you for your kind words, and yes, have a go!
You're an incredible artist! Just watching you install the carpet with such patience, expertise and flawless execution provided the knowledge I needed to absolutely convince me that I have no business going near that spray adhesive and beautiful new carpet material. Thank God for professionals such as you, who can provide impeccable services to get the job done right. I don't know what you charge for your work but you are worth every penny of it.
Thank you for your kind words. It certainly a job that needs practice to achieve the desired results but if I can do it, I'm sure you can!!
Excellent work, the pride of workmanship really shows. Thank you!
That is beautiful work . . . .such pride in what you do is so admirable.
Thank you for this entire series of videos, they are worth so much to someone like me.
Thank you for doing this video! I'm about to start carpeting my van and you have given me hope I can do it right.
Did you manage mate
@@ambitionsskyyyy Hey bud.
Yes I got it done. I have to clean up the area above the back door but the rest is all done. Came out pretty well tbh. Thanks to these guys I got the confidence to get on with it.
Now I'm busy doing electrics and then gas
Thanks for the very informative vid, managed to carpet out my Caddy off the back of your advice
THE best video on how to line walls with carpet on RUclips. Thanks for the very in-depth demonstration. I'm keen to get cracking on my Van now
Thank you very much for the kind words. I'm so glad we could have helped.
Thanks for sharing. What great work. Appreciate the tips along the way to help us DIYers get a more pro-looking result. Seeing this video makes me want to leave some of my conversion van "bare" with just some carpet like this. I hope the installers I run into here do as good a job as you've shown.
Superb craftsmanship! I am impressed with how the carpet appears to be almost like paint due to your skill!
It certainly does cover up a multitude of sins, but like painting a car, the final result is all about the initial preperation of the surfaces
Thank you. Seriously informative, excellent workmanship and attention to detail. Only criticism I have is that you made it look easy and now we all think we can do it! :) :)
Just about to cover the inside of my Berlingo and thought it was going to be easy, so so glad i watched this video... Its going to be a lot easier now. Thanks for the tips, hints and knowledge...
Carpeted my van yesterday following this vid, really pleased with the result.
Excellent Vid. As always, love seeing a craftsman who takes Pride in a job Well Done ! Cheers
Thank you for the kind words :)
Very useful video, thanks for taking the time.
Wow. This is some of the cleanest work I've ever seen.
Bravo!
These type of videos are also the best out there. Thank you.
There is nothing more valuable than a master of his trade showing how to do something, exactly, step by step.
Thank you for the kind words :) Leigh
One of the best vehicle clips I've seen on RUclips. Really interesting to watch how it's done and you make it look so easy. Thanks.
Thank you
Just found your channel as I'm at this stage with my conversion been looking at a lot of you tube videos nothing come near you video excellent workmanship and brilliantly explained just subbed you channel cheers
Dude, this was incredibly informative! I've never been a fan of vans contained in wood but love the look of carpetted walls. Ive decided to go half and half, with wooden paneling finishing above the wheel arches, and transitioning into carpeting. Thanks for your tips and tricks. Looking forward to obtaining the materials and kickstarting the process!
Different strokes for different folks: Everytime I see carpet in a van it's an immediate turn off. Some of us find carpet gross, a dirt grabber.
.
I'm going for the roof and exposed metal struts. Wooden panels elsewhere. I'm going for not insulating the wheel archs. It'll be murder when it comes to doing any welding. Worth considering.
Wow...how therapeutic watching you carpet this van. You must have the patience of a saint. The glue and carpet would be all over the van by now , and I would be having a cool VB while my temper cools down l9l
Thank you so much, as with all your informative videos, this has helped us to prepare for the panelling and carpeting stage.
This is definitely the best instructional video I've seen. Brilliant finish. Thank you for the video. Wish you'd done this a year ago!!! Carpeted mine using the panel method...actually, my wife did!
Excellent work and definitely best left to someone like yourself with the right experience for the best result. Have a thumbs up.
Thank you very much for your kind words, and thumbs up!
Hi you guys have just inspired me after watching your videos ! I recently found water ingress in my moho after stripping out all the rot and due to think about re carpet etc I was in dismay about doing this I was ready to just pay for someone to do it but hey your videos on doing this have made me give it a go . But I must add so impressed by your work if you were closer to Scotland I would happily pay you guys to carry out the work ! very impressed .
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, I was going to attempt doing my van but seen your professionalism and how you give attention to detail, I think I might seek out a professional here in Republic of Ireland. 🇮🇪
Very impressive finish.looks a million dollars ,thanks for the vid.🚐🙂
Thank you for your kind words Gabriel
18:43 "I'm just thumbing it in" we've all been there 😂😂
"Finish off with a scraper" Hnnng!
Make sure it before its set fully, aka thumbing it in semi.
' I'm being quite aggressive with my tool '
Best upholstering video on RUclips. Expect great things from your stable in future. Well Done!!
A brilliant instructional video and very generous of you to share your techniques, it is great to see someone who cares about what he is doing.
Gracias por el vídeo muy bien explicando 🤝
Great work patients is definitely a virtue
Excellent video! Your expertise and simple method of instruction is super helpful for my own build. Thanks!
You’ve been the best guidance in my caddy quarantine conversion - thank you and keep it up 💪🏻
Amazing video, not many business owners would go into this amount of detail to help others do it on their own.
Thank you very much, and deffo + 1 sub
18:45. Thumbing it in 🤣 Great job all round though!
about to attempt this on my caddy, have used the suppliers you recommended as the finish you have is great. im sure ill be watching this video a few times over the next few days!
Top job. Having done a few smaller jobs than this, I can appreciate your skills and abilities. I hope the customer appreciated how nice it turned out.
Thank you Desparky :)
Thanks so much for the great video. Hadn't considered carpet before but that looks pretty awesome
This realy helped my to carpet line the inside of my t5.1 thanks!
Thats great news! Well done! If you post any pictures online to instagram or facebook, be sure to tag us @combe_valley_campers
@@CombeValleyCampers I'll do the same !
Wow! Amazing clean job, love it, thank you for the detailed advice!
Dear Combe Valley Campers, thank you very much. Your videos are very instructive. I learned a lot of useful things for myself.
Great vid Thanks though had to keep turning volume down when music kicked in !
Noted, thank you
just about to start ftting my van out, this is a really good video. You make it look relatively easy which means I'm bound to cock it up LOL
Your honesty cracked me right up, curious though how’d it go?
@@jonathanmayer1713 I never got round to it with that van, someone drove up my ass and wrote it off, tplacement van was already carpeted.
“ Thumbing it in “ .........! Great video. Gary, Dan & Tina, fantastic people. Very pleased with the work carried out the other day on my roof vent, cheers. Highly recommend!
That's great man, thankbyou for the lovely feedback
Thanks for sharing all your experience with these materials. Great video.
I can't believe I just spent a half-hour watching a van being carpeted... But now I want to try to do it myself!
I should probably mention that I have no need to. 😂
Totally me too lol.
same here
Me too
What happened to the tailgate?
I must admit it seems daunting at first to start carpeting but you just gotta get on and start. I did my bulkhead and turned out very well. Next job is my roof and other bits..
Well done man! Tailgate can just have the door card carpeted or the metal work too depending on the desired result
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Really well explained. Thanks for sharing the knowledge
Fully converted my van from these videos . Used the recommended products . Looks and feels great and saved a fortune 😉 thanks
That's awesome news!!!
You just KNOW this is one of them jobs that is never going to be anywhere near as easy as he made it look....lol
Ya know what, its not that bad. Just did the drivers side today and whilst there was a few hairy moments it went on well. Very very satisfying job
How do you deal with mould and or mildew with the carpet? It looks great, but I'd be concerned about the carpet retaining humidity.
Modern Lining carpet is very thin, unlike lining carpet of gold which had more body to hold water. I have personally not experienced mould or mildew with this version of lining carpet and I wouldn't apply carpet to a vehicle I knew to be leaking and have high levels of moisture
From what I understood from another van video, having an even heat level is how you avoid mold. So no temperature variations around the van. No hot spots and cold spots.
Professional craftsman; patient teacher. Thanks for sharing.
A very well presented video, lots of tips , would recommend anyone going to carpet their van, watch this first.
Good job, but I was waiting for that sliding door covering :(
I loved this, I might tackle my little freedom caravan after watching you do this … thanks for your expertise on this one!
Perfect video, thanks for putting in the time to explain all the finer details.
a master craftsman always demonstrates his/her proficiency with a perspective of ease to the ordinary layperson! great job fellow!
Thank you for your kind words Josh
Thanks for taking the time. It’s very helpful. Appreciated.
Wow! Looks amazing! Superwell done!
I don't care what you say, that is a highly-skilled job that takes lots of experience to perfect in the way this guy demonstrated, I wouldn't recommend attempting this if you are a novice. this is one of those videos that makes it look easy but in reality it is far from it, I'd imagine it won't be cheap getting a business like combe valley campers to do it for you but will probably be more economical in the long term. Fantastic job by the way.
Fantastic video, I’m all geared up to do mine now. Thanks 🙏🏼
Very informative video for anyone going about carpeting their van. So many professional tips and tricks and the confidence you give freely to the viewer. Hope business is really good for you and anyone unable to do the carpeting for one reason or the other have put the business your way. Liked and subscribed.....👏👏☘
Man, what a detailed video, and super clean finish.. must remember to thumb it in 😂! Love the how to vids.. hoping your going to carry on with the podcast, just finished listening to all the episodes you created in the first series. Looming to start my van conversion this month, and yiur videos are easily the best online!!
Brought carpet from the website earlier on this afternoon, I think I will definitely be watching this video on repeat whilst attempting the van. Fingers crossed for that smooth finish. Take my time, thumb it in and force those tools in the cracks.
Just watched this … absolutely brilliant video, one of the best around. Learnt a lot from you slow and patient instructions…
Cheers..👍
Excellent job and explanation - you are a true craftsman!
Your a pleasure to watch nice to see you have pride in your work👌👌
Looks amazing, make me want to have a go in my old vivaro, class work!
Wow. You make it look easy. Very professional.
WOW! Amazing time and patience goes into a job like this! Good job man!!!
Thank you for your kind words :)
So well explained, covered everything you need to know, excellent.
Very nice Meticulous Work Love your patience and pride you put in your work keep them cool Videos coming thank you From Central Coast Cali.
Great tutorial, thankfully my T4 was already done 😂 I have however just redone the roof in a different colour as the old lining was sagging. Carpeting the back certainly makes all the difference!
Very neat and professional work, pleasure to watch you work 👍
So cool. Love your work! Got a van to do soon! Thanks for sharing your knowledge
This is the Best manual that i have ever seen!!!
Thanks for the video. Just carpeted the inside of my van following your direction. Good job 👍
Well done!!!
Nice work! I’ve just done the sound deadening and insulation, ready for the carpet, cheers for the red hot tips, no thumbing in necessary 👍
Well done man
I find your videos very helpful. You clearly explain and demonstrate which is great, thank you very much. Only hope that I can do such a great job as you guys do.
