RE-ling a freedom caravan is a big job. It needs loads of spray adhesive and tons of patience. You must wear a mask-not the 25p jobies, but a full blown £25 solvent proof mask

I did not insulate and the lining was not foam backed. It worked out fine for me and took me 50 hours. I dont do rush.

Freedom Jetstream roof lining. I stripped all of the lining, walls and ceiling, and replaced it with "lining carpet" I got 20 sq meters from Coverdale . Quite a big job, but if you take your time it makes a great job. Cost about £120 including adhesive. Don't do it in big pieces, the glue sets too quickly for manipulating large areas. ceiling was in two pieces jointed by the roof light. I removed almost all interior fittings except overhead lockers.

drop me an email and i will give you photos.



Please no scammers, it seems folks are trying to find my email to send me garbage. If you continue, you will be removed from the listing.

just something to remember before you put self adhesive vinyl floor tiles down you need to seal the plywood/hardboard floor first with a dilute mix of PVA and water. something the consistancy of full fat milk should be fine.

Hi I have a jetstream twin sport, the roof lining is sagging. I have had a quote from freedom caravan in Staffordshire which they said will cost me £840, was thinking of doing it myself. Could you send me some pictures of the work you did on the roof lining. Many thanks
