Never search for that one fitting again
Fitting out a van for plumbers
Fitting out a van for plumbers starts with your working day: every fitting sorted by type and size, your pipes safely on board and your press tool secured shock-free, job after job.
Recognise this?
Your working day, without the frustrations
This is what a day looks like with a fit-out made to measure for your trade.
Every fitting found straight away
Press fittings, compression fittings and seals sorted by type and size. No more turning over a box for that one piece.
Your press tool always in its place
Your most expensive tool travels in its own compartment, secured against shock and with the press jaws next to it. Grab and press.
Pipes on board, safe and dry
A five-metre copper pipe slides into the tube on your roof rack. Shorter lengths lie flat in a floor drawer.
Sealant and silicone upright
Your cartridges and spray cans stand upright in their holder. No more leaked tube underneath your materials.
Off straight away on an emergency call-out
A leak won’t wait. Everything is where you expect it, so you’re already on your way while someone else is still searching.
Your stock at a glance
One look in your drawers and you know which fittings to reorder. Never arrive at a customer empty-handed again.
Never without that one fitting again
Every fitting and every seal found in seconds
Nothing is as frustrating as a connection you can’t get sealed because that one reducer has run out. With loose boxes and bags, you only see what is missing once you’re at the customer’s. And then it’s another trip to the wholesaler, at best half an hour away.
In sliding drawers with divider trays, every part gets a fixed place: press fittings by size, compression fittings by type, seals and PTFE tape within easy reach. The drawers slide fully out, even when fully loaded, so you see your entire stock at a glance. That is how organising your tools in your van is meant to work.
Everything sorted, nothing bought twice.
Did you know… tradespeople with our fit-out save up to 30 minutes per working day? Time you now lose searching and making extra trips.
Long materials safely on board
Five metres of pipe, neatly transported: on the roof or under the floor
A copper pipe lying diagonally through your load space catches on everything and arrives at the customer bent. And pipes that keep rolling around slide into the rest of your materials on every bend.
On your roof rack, long pipes slide into a closed tube: dry, securely fixed and right to hand. Shorter lengths and your rolls of Alpex lie flat in a floor drawer under your load floor. That is how you go about storing long materials in your van without losing a single centimetre of load space.
Arrive, slide out, connect.
Did you know… a floor drawer carries up to 80 kg? Your pipes and heavy items lie flat, and your load floor stays completely clear.
Your most expensive kit protected
Your press tool secured shock-free, your water heater loaded with ease
A press tool that falls out of a loose box makes for an expensive day. And lifting a water heater into the load space on your own, you feel that in your back in the evening. Or worse: for weeks.
In our fit-out your press tool travels in its own compartment with a holder: protected from dust and knocks, in line with the rules on carrying loads safely in your van. And for water heaters and boilers there are clever aids to load heavy materials in your van without the hauling.
Your tools intact, your back spared.
Did you know… the entire fit-out is crash-tested to ECE R17? Everything stays in place, even in an emergency stop.
Made to measure for your work sequence
A layout that follows your working day and grows with your business
A bathroom today, a central heating boiler tomorrow, five emergency call-outs the day after. No two plumbers work the same way. A standard cupboard that half fits doesn’t really fit at all.
With us, fitting out a van for plumbers is bespoke work: we start from your work sequence and your materials and build the layout in modules. Taking on an employee or switching to an electric van? Then you expand, or the fit-out simply moves with you.
If you choose aluminium, your fit-out weighs up to 30% less than steel: more payload for your water heaters and extra range. Read how to increase the range of your electric van.
Made to measure today, extended tomorrow.

Frequently asked questions about fitting out a van for plumbers
What does a van fit-out for a plumber cost?
Fitting out a van for plumbers is done to measure, so the price depends on three factors: the size of your van, your choice of material and the number of modules.
- Size: a compact city van needs fewer modules than a large L3H3.
- Material: steel is the cheapest option, aluminium is up to 30% lighter.
- Composition: from a basic set with sorting drawers for your fittings to a complete workshop on wheels, pipe tube included.
That is why we work with a made-to-measure quote: that way you know exactly where you stand, with no obligation and no duty to buy.
Which layout suits my work as a plumber?
The layout follows your work sequence: what you need on every job goes at the front and within easy reach. If you mostly do installations, your pipes, water heaters and heavy tools get the most space; if you mostly do emergency call-outs and maintenance, sorting drawers with fittings and a fixed compartment for your press tool take priority. We draw up the layout together with you, based on what has to go with you every day.
How do I transport long pipes safely in or on my van?
Long copper or plastic pipes slide into a closed tube on your roof rack: dry, securely fixed and right to hand. Shorter lengths and rolls of Alpex lie flat in a floor drawer under your load floor, which carries up to 80 kg. That way your pipes stay straight and you keep your entire load space free for everything else.
How do I sort fittings, seals and other small materials?
In sliding drawers with divider trays: press fittings by size, compression fittings by type, seals and PTFE tape within easy reach. The drawers slide fully out, even when fully loaded, so you see your entire stock at a glance. You find every part in seconds and see straight away what you need to reorder, before you run short at the customer’s.
Can I expand the fit-out if I take on an employee?
Yes. The system is modular: you add drawers, cabinets or holders later without replacing the existing fit-out. If a second van joins your fleet, you fit it out identically. That way your employee finds everything straight away and the quality of the work stays the same, whoever is driving.
How long does the fit-out take to install?
We fit a standard fit-out smoothly; a complete fit-out is usually ready within two working days. We schedule the fitting shortly after your van is delivered. That way you never miss a call-out. On every fit-out you also get a 5-year full fit-out warranty.
Will a fit-out fit my model of van?
Yes. We have fitting plans for almost every make and model, from a compact city van to a large L3H3. The modules are anchored on the original mounting points of your vehicle, so a leased van is fine too. Together with you, we look at what fits in your model.
Isn't building a rack myself cheaper?
In the short term, yes, but a home-built wooden rack is not anchored and not crash-tested. In an emergency stop a loose cupboard with fittings boxes and your press tool shoots forward, straight into your bulkhead. Our fit-out is certified (TÜV GS, ECE R17, CE), weighs up to 30% less than steel in aluminium and lasts through several vans. Anyone who takes fitting out a van for plumbers seriously earns that difference back in time, safety and resale value.
Is fitting out a van for plumbers different from fitting one out for other tradespeople?
Yes. Fitting out a van for plumbers is about a great deal of small material in many sizes, long pipes and an expensive press tool. The layout therefore focuses on fine sorting by compartment, a pipe tube on the roof and a protected compartment for your press tool.
On top of that come holders for sealant and silicone and a clever solution for loading water heaters without hauling. We design the layout based on your work sequence.
