About Our Services
How much does a custom food truck cost?
The cost of a custom food truck varies based on the size, equipment, design complexity, and finishing. We work with each client to create a build that fits their budget. Contact us for a free quote tailored to your specific needs.
How long does a build take?
Build timelines depend on the scope: 1) Standard food truck build-out: 4-8 weeks, 2) Kitchen conversions (van/bus): 6-10 weeks, 3) Complex restorations or custom builds: 8-12+ weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during your consultation.
Do you offer financing?
Yes! We offer a lease-to-own program with no application cost, terms from 1 to 6 years, and a minimum 30% deposit. We also work with several financing companies that offer excellent payment options.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Houston, TX at 7730 Pinemont Dr, and serve clients across Texas and beyond. Many customers travel from other states to work with us on their custom food truck builds.
Do your builds pass health inspections?
Absolutely. All our builds are designed to meet local health and safety codes. We are the premier location in Houston for helping food trucks pass inspection — Harris County's own truck was serviced by our team.
Food Truck Tips
Are all food truck owners chefs?
Not at all! Some owners are chefs, others started learning as the business grew, and many hire chefs to work on their food trucks. You don't need to be a chef to run a successful food truck business.
How can I know food trucks are clean?
Food trucks are inspected regularly and must follow strict cleaning guidelines to operate. You can look for their license displayed as a sticker or document on the inside window.
Is owning a food truck easy?
While food trucks are smaller than restaurants, operating one can be very challenging due to limited space. Owners must plan carefully — estimating sales, managing inventory, and keeping the workspace organized. However, with the right build and equipment, these challenges become much more manageable.
What should I order from a food truck?
Don't be afraid to ask the staff for recommendations! Since it's a small business, the team usually knows their menu inside and out and can help you find something you'll love.
Should I leave a tip at a food truck?
Extra cash is always welcome! While it won't be considered rude if you don't tip (as it sometimes is at restaurants), the staff will surely appreciate it if you do.
