An increasingly popular option for caravan owners is to remodel and renovate older caravans rather than buy new ones. This is due to many issues including the high cost of some newer model caravans. If you are considering a remodel on your caravan, then you are probably looking at different materials for the living space as well as shower areas and kitchens. If this is the case, there are some areas that can benefit from the use of steel sheets and steel tubing. Here are a few of those areas and how the materials can help your final renovations.

Flooring

You may not think about steel sheets as a material for the flooring of your caravan. Keep in mind that they do not have to replace the entire floor. You can have the sheets placed as flooring near doors, in shower areas and in areas where mud and dirt collect. This can help to reduce damage to wood material floors and keep the clean and finished look of the rest of the caravan. The sheets can also be cut to fit and can come in different levels of thickness depending on the area for placement and your needs.

Shower Stalls

When you begin to renovate the shower stall in the caravan, you may notice that the entire thing is a form of fiberglass or synthetic material. Though this is usually fine, the material can attract and capture stains as well as scratch easily. This can diminish the look and feel of the entire space. Instead, you can have steel sheets cut to fit the area and placed within the compartment. The steel can act as a shower wall or floor or as the entire bathing and toilet compartment. Steel tubing can be used to encase plumbing around sinks and toilets so it is not exposed to any visitors.

Countertops

Your countertops and tabletop areas can become scratched, damaged and dirty quickly. This is especially true if you are living in the caravan for a long period of time or as a full-time traveling endeavor. Steel sheets can be cut to fit the countertops and tabletop spaces, giving you easy-to-clean durable surfaces. These surfaces do not attract stains and can be cleaned with a simple cloth wipe-down, making them easy to maintain on longer trips.

When you are ready to gather the materials for your caravan renovation, consider contacting a steel fabrication company that deals in steel sheets and tubing. They can create the sheets and tubing you need in the dimensions you specify. They can also help with pricing and other questions you have regarding your order.
