If possible, can the OP give us a feel for the amount of time such a project might take?

We’ve discussed remodeling the coach if we don’t downsize. Most of the “new” things EC added don’t interest me and our floor plan suits us well.
When you factor in trade, sales tax, depreciation, etc. as others say, the cost of remodeling looks much more reasonable.

Yes I will share pictures this fall after the remodel is done

They say that we can stay in the coach and it will only take 3 days

They have openings in September

I would give HWH AA second thoughts. The AA on my coach was installed when the coach was built. I loved the way it works. That is when the system works as designed. Problem is when things go bad getting tech support is hard to come by. Thanksgiving last year coming home our coach started raising the left rear so coach was not sitting level. Had to stop every few miles dump air and start again until 5-10 minutes down the road the coach was leaning again. When got home called HWH and was told would get a return phone call in 4 weeks. Turns out it took 5 weeks to get return call. When I had gotten the call I had done a lot of research and asked a lot of questions so I could trouble shoot the problem. Problem ended up going away on it's own. Then about 6-8 weeks ago problem happened again but his time it was the right side that would go high. Called HWH again and was told I would get a call back. Some few weeks later got a call and they asked some questions about what LED's were doing. Went to coach and videoed the control boards while we aired up and let air out of bags. Sent video to HWH and they told me that it looked like the ride height sensors were working correctly but could not tell me why I have having problem. I have sent them a few emails asking how the system it programed to react to events and how the ride height sensors were wired, along with the air solenoid. I was wanting to know if the air solenoid were wired by switch hot or switched ground. As of today I still have not gotten an answer back.

I have an appointment at the Foretravel factory for Monday so hopefully they will be able to figure out what is going wrong.

Since Thanksgiving of last year I wish I did not have AA based on support I have been given by HWH. It also looks like Foretravel no longer uses HWH AA on new coaches.

Wow! Sorry to hear of your troubles. This is the first bad report I’ve heard about AA

We have a 2015 45b not a fan of the Hadley sit leveling(compared to previous coach with valid system) but we plan to remodel not to buy new seems an easy choice as we have already added so many upgrades.

If you start getting that again before it is "fixed", get the coach to the right ride height and the turn the AA off, by pushing the STOP button. That will hold your coach at exactly that height and not let the AA work or change, kinda like you didn't have AA. I've had to do that twice because of a broken weld due to a tire company putting the jack on the wrong place and once because the "arm" was hit by something on the road. You will need to do that each time you start the coach until you get it fixed.

That is one of the things I do like with the system, you won't be left on the side of the road if something does go wrong and the ability to air up individual air bags if needed. Sorry you are having problems.

We had wood design remodel ours as well. 2013 Anthem RBQ. Big difference
We removed all the furniture and redid the carpet. Installed the Lambright theatre seating as they matched our fabric. We also purchased the lambright swivel chairs with our fabric on them. Just a few more changes and it is all done. We are headed back there July 19th as they are replacing our counter top in the kitchen and changing out the sink. It will be a new coach without all the headache of the automation. We can control the thermostat via wifi when we are gone away from the coach and that is really all we need.

That’s very similar to what we’re going to do.

We love their work and the coach is so much nicer now.

Can you post a picture showing the area where the fireplace was? We want to have the trash can moved there in the lower area, then adding a pantry cabinet in the rest.

We’re going to give up the fireplace and have a cabinet built for books and quilting supplies with the TV behind it.

Here are some of the pictures you requested:

We love Wood Design RV. We have a 2017 Cornerstone "K" and we are completely redoing the interior, making it white and gray. We are about 70% done, back to them in September to move the TV from the back wall to behind our new drivers side couch on a pop up. The old TV area will become a back-lite bottle and glass storage area (with security holders that go in when we are underway)

We just finished up the removal of our slide out table and replaced it with a 'breakfast bar / computer work station' much more counter room and workspace for us - helps when we both work from the coach.

We have a lot more projects ahead of us but Wood Design has truly transformed our coach.

So nice to know there is an outfit that does this.
Thanks for posting. Please keep the pictures coming
