Complete Camper ReNovation! (2001 Salem Fifth Wheel Restored)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ต.ค. 2024
- This is a walk through video of our renovated $200 find on Marketplace. It's a 2001 twenty four foot Salem fifth wheel that was ready for the junkyard. We took about six months and $4500 to bring it back to life, better than new in my opinion.
Some items used in the Camper:
Kitchen Sink: amzn.to/45Cc6FM
Interlocking waterproof tile: amzn.to/3JudIa5
Peel and Stick wallpaper: amzn.to/3YXgDxX
Bathroom Rectangular Vessel Sink: amzn.to/40oAR4S
Hoimpro Black Waterfall Spout: amzn.to/3lmGpxX
RecPro Stainless Stove and Vent Hood: amzn.to/46Vd7YB
Cabinet Hardware: amzn.to/47Iva5E

Wow wow wow what an amazing job!!!
Thank you for the amazing comment!
You guys did an excellent job. The best that I've seen. Some people take an already nice rv and redecorate it to look nicer, but you restored and renovated this one. I would like to see videos of everything. I need to redo my walls , roof, and one slide floor. More videos please.
Thank you! I will be posting more. Hopefully I can post what you need, If you have specific questions on how I did something, please feel free to ask.
Gorgeous, fantastic workmanship😊😊😊
@@wandac.8382 Thank you I appreciate the compliment.
Fabulous job, that ceiling fallen in would have deterred me from even starting!😄💕🇨🇦
Thank You! It was a lot of work, several times I was asking myself why, LOL.
This has to be the nicest RV remodel I have seen! It is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the BEAUTIFUL comment! I hope I don't disappoint on my future remodels!
Wow That's an amazing transformation , Great eye for detail and design.
Thanks, I give all the credit to my wife for the design!
I’m in the process of remodeling a 2006 Jayco. It feels like we are trying to build a house inside of a closet. It’s a long, tedious process but through perseverance we feel it will be worth it. Your remolding video was beautiful and gave our confidence in tackling this monstrous project. Hopefully we are on the path of developing a beautiful RV home as yours is. Thanks for sharing so many awesome ideas.
It does seem to take forever at times (and many times we would ask ourselves why we took on the project) but when you are done it will be worth it! If you get stuck on anything during your remodel or have questions on how we did anything, don't hesitate to ask.
Yes, you did a wonderful job restoring that fifth wheel. I currently own a fifth wheel myself and thinking about some decor ideas.
If you decide to do any painting, I highly recommend using the Zinzer BIN primer. It is a little more expensive (around $80 a gallon) but we have found it sticks best to the cabinets and RV walls. Thank you so much for the wonderful comment!
Awesome job!! I just got a 28 footer in rough shape for a full rebuild. Your build gives some great inspiration!
Thank you, good luck on your rebuild. I will be posting some videos on some cool cabinets I just built, so check back if you need any more ideas for your restoration!
Wow! Your unit turned out beautiful! Your hard work really paid off. Love all your decor too 😊
Thank you, I am glad you liked it and I appreciate the comment!
Beautiful build, well worth the time and labor! Y’all did an awesome job!
Thanks for the comment, we didn't think we would ever get rid of it, but our newest restoration we feel came out even better. Ill be posting before and afters hopefully soon of that.
It's absolutely 💯 beautiful...
Thank you, I appreciate the comment!

Thanks for the excellent comment. We'll be posting our latest before and after renovation this week. So please stay tuned for that video. I would love to know your thoughts on it as well!
Love it .. everything flows nicely …
Thank you, I appreciate the comment!
It was definitely worth the time and money. It's beautiful. The best I've seen and I've seen a lot. Well done.

Why thanks so much Mr. Wilson!
Extremely good job.
Thanks so much, I appreciate the comment!
Look fabulous.
Thank you, We appreciate the fabulous comment!
Very impressive
Thank you, I appreciate the comment!
Outstanding! Very Very Well Done SIR! WOW!
Thank You! I appreciate the comment.
It's beautiful! Wish you had recorded the makeover. I'd like to know how you redid the ceiling and how you added the modern lighting.
Thank you. I will try in the future to include that. In my pop up camper roof repair video, I show how I did the ceiling panels. For this project, since I put up new panels I just used the wiring from the old lights and cut the holes where I wanted them. The tricky part of the dimmable lights is you have to have a separate ground wire to make the lights dim. Again, I will try to make a video on that.
Very well done
Thank you for the comment!
Wow! Nice job 👍

Amazing Job!
Thank you!
Seriously I keep coming back to watch this video, $200!? And it looks like that now, truly amazing...question, you said after towing it you like towing a 5th wheel ...did you have a travel trailer before this? We are thinking about changing to a 5th wheel also....
Yes we did have a travel trailer before this one. I liked towing the fifth wheel because I didn't get as much of the sway as I did with our pull behind. We have since got a new (Used) fifth wheel that we like even better because we found one with a full size bathroom. Stay tuned for the before and after video of that one. And thanks for the comments!
You did a great job! We have an older RV that's actually in good shape and two older campers that's in really bad shape. I'm now wondering if I should remodel the RV and try fixing up one of the campers. After seeing your before pictures, it gives me a little hope that I can fix up one of them. 😊
Thank you, I say go for it, I know you can do it! If you get stuck or have questions feel free to ask.
Wow that’s just gorgeous 💗💗
Thank you!
Very nice job!~
Thank you, I appreciate the positive comment!
Very nice !
Thank you!
I love this!
I love that you love it, thank you!
We have the same trailer just a few years newer that we want to restore. What an amazing transformation. What did you do with the couch and the dinette. Is the couch the same with a new cover? The dinette looks all new!
Please help. Your projects are inspiring
Yes, the couch is the original couch with a slip cover over it that my wife made. The dinette was replaced with a new one from RecPro. It was probably one of the more expensive purchases on the restoration, and thank you for the nice comment!
WOWW NICE!
Thanks for the Nice comment, We appreciate it!
Unbeleivable !!!!!
Thank you for the compliment!
Reno shows always mention Lowes & Ikea items for tiny houses. Thanks
Lowes and Amazon are my go to's lol.
Wow very nice!!! Question we found a 5th wheel that has some damage on the outside propane compartment and damage to the sidewall area about 9" by 6". It's not a hole but the obvious hit something. If the frame and the inside are good is it worth repairing? No water damage so it seems like it would be fairly easy to repair.
Thank you, I believe it would be, especially if the price was right and there is no water damage. Water damage is where it can be a little costly to repair. Is it aluminum siding or fiberglass? Aluminum siding is a little easier to repair in my opinion, but both can be done.
I'm rebuilding a Class C 28' rv. My husband passed in Feb and I'm almost 68 trying to do this on my own. I am very interested in the sink size you got for the kitchen. I clicked on the link you have and is it really 16" wide? It appears wider then that. it's just going to be me living in the RV so I am realizing I don't need a huge one. I want a farmhouse sink. Beautiful redo you guys did. Oh I see that sink is for the bathroom. What size is your kitchen sink please?
Thank you for the compliment and sorry for your loss. The kitchen sink we used was 23x20x9. It is a little larger but we like it because of the cutting board and colander it came with. I edited the video and put the link to the one we bought. I noticed it has gone up in price since we bought it. They do have smaller sizes of this sink and we used the 15x17x9 in another camper we are redoing now. They have a few other sizes as well if you don't need it that big. Have fun with your remodel and if you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Awesome job looks totally new. Did y have to replace the roof too?I'm working on a 2006 28 ft. Bunk house rip out all the flooring and have added some aluminum bracing also have to do the roof never have done before any advice on roof?
I think the floors were harder than the roof. For the floors there should be lag screws that tie the walls to the floor underneath. As far as the roof, it's not too bad. I recommend laying the whole roof out, then roll back half and do half at a time if that makes sense. I do have a video on how I did the roof on another camper I have. It also helps if it is a little warmer out as the rubber roof rolls easier. Oh and yes I did have to replace the roof to include making new trusses on the fifth wheel.
Well done!! Where did you get the new stove/oven, and the vent-hood? Cost? All the matching cabinet and drawer hardware?
Thank You! 90% of what I buy I get from Amazon because I like the free shipping and easy returns. I bought both the stove and vent hood as well as the cabinet hardware from there. I bought the stove pre covid and it was just under $500 for both. (I got the 17" model, which they make a larger 21" as well.) I just looked and now it's around $600. I edited the video and put the links to the hardware and the stove in the description. You could check the Recpro site directly for the stove to see if it is less expensive if you buy direct. Also if you do change the hardware you have to measure the hole width as it is not always universal fit.
Nice...😊
Thank You!
😮😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😚🥰 so perfect!
Thank you for the Perfect comment, I appreciate It!
Yes I think it was well worth the money y put into it as trailers are so expensive now days
To be honest I agree, and It feels more homey to me.
What did you do, and what did you use to repaint the old cabinets?
I rebuilt the bottom cabinets and kept the top cabinets. I used 1 x 2 and 1/8" plywood to build the bottom cabinets. To paint the cabinets I highly recommend using Zinsser BIN Primer. It is a little more expensive like $75 a can, but I find you don't have to do any prep like sanding the cabinets before hand and I have not had any issues with the paint scratching off. We then use Valspar Cabinet and Furniture paint (Satin) for the cabinets. I am currently remodeling another fifth wheel and will be posting a video on how I rebuilt one of the cabinets in it.
That’s simply amazing and beautiful….such a good job I love it!!!
Thank you for the comment, I appreciate the kind words!
What brand of paint did you use to paint the grey cabinets? Also, what was the name of the grey? I am also wondering where you purchased the shower tile, the wallpaper, sink and faucet in the bathroom. Thanks!
We got the paint from Lowes. We used the Valspar Cabinet and Furniture paint and the expensive Zinsser BIN primer. Using the more expensive primer we did not have to scuff the cabinets and it has held up well. I am still searching for the exact grey color we used. I have misplaced the can, as soon as I find it I will post the color. As far as the other items I got them all from amazon. I edited the video comments and posted the links of exactly what we used. As far as the wall paper it is peel and stick. we found with the heat and cooling the seams would start to un peel so we had to tack white wood strips on the seams (You can see the strips in the video). The bathroom tiles we stuck on the walls using Extreme heavy duty liquid nails and a waterproof clear silicone in-between the tiles. It has held up so far for two years. If you have any other questions please ask, and thanks for the comment!
I finally found the grey color it was a Sherwin Williams color from Lowes. The color name is Thunder Clap HGSW1492. As I said in my previous comment we used the Valspar cabinet and furniture paint.
How did you do the countertops?
I used MDF, paint and epoxy to make them. I have a video on how I did it here: th-cam.com/video/yIAMU1lSO9E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=5F2yUZD1Udud8o4H. If the link doesn't work you can scroll through my videos on my channel. One thing I will note is in the fifth wheel I used an epoxy I got from Lowes and the countertops came out with a little bit of a yellow tinge. The counter tops I did in the how to video I used an epoxy called super clear which came out better I think.
How did you do the LED lights behind the slide? I’m interested in doing that as well
It was actually simple. I posted a video for you on how it looks from the back of the slide out. I used tape lights. They have plug in ones and battery powered ones. I posted a link in the video on the ones I used.
What colors did u use to paint ?
I know the wall color was a Sherwin Williams paint called Basalt Powder and we got it from Lowes. I will get back to you on the cabinet color, I will have to try and find the paint can.
@@parkedredesign Perfect color palette. This looks brand new.
@@danawelch3985 I appreciate the comment, thank you, and it does feel brand new. Amazing what some paint can do!
I finally found the grey cabinet color. It was also a Shervin Williams color from Lowes called Thunder Clap HGSW1492 but we used the valspar cabinet and furniture paint.
Worth it! It's beautiful,and built when they took some pride in their work. We have a 2000 Jayco 30ft wouldn't hesitate to put in 4 to 5 thousand. Stuff they put out now is crappy,and overpriced.
Thank you! The new ones are pricey and we like having a custom RV. I just picked up a mid 2000 Jayco and excited to work on that project. My only problem is I want to keep them after I fix them up. 🤣
Beautiful
Thank you for the Beautiful comment!
Great job!
