Benefits of temporary commercial buildings
- You only pay for the space your project needs, for as long as you need it. There's no capital tied up in a permanent structure, and hire costs sit as operational expenditure rather than capital spend.
- You add space when demand is real and confirmed. Our team works with you at enquiry stage to set the specifications around your actual requirement before you commit to an order.
- You keep operations running through refurbishment, expansion or relocation, with space installed and connected alongside ongoing activity on your site without disruption.
- Off-site manufacture keeps your programme on track. Building production runs separately from site activity, so neither depends on the other staying on schedule.
- Every building can be designed to achieve BREEAM 'Excellent', assessed under BREEAM UK New Construction where your project or planning authority requires the certification.
- If your requirements change, your building can be extended, reconfigured or relocated to suit your needs. Whether you're moving between project phases, relocating to a new site or no longer require the building, we'll work with you to adapt the solution or arrange its removal from site.
- One supplier manages design, manufacture, groundworks and installation, with one point of contact responsible for planning, coordination and installation timing from your first enquiry through to handover.
How to hire a temporary commercial building
Temporary building hire starts with your requirements: occupancy, usage type, site conditions and timescale. When you enquire with us, our team responds within one working day and can arrange a site visit where your project needs one.
Your site may need planning permission depending on building type and duration. Councils typically determine applications within 12 weeks under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. Permitted development may apply.
You can choose hire, purchase a new or a refurbished unit. Hire suits short-term needs. Purchase suits longer-term use. Refurbished buildings cost less upfront.
Our site survey confirms access, ground conditions and utilities before manufacturing begins. We co-ordinate groundworks and installation as a single delivery process alongside off-site manufacture.
Your building arrives as pre-fabricated modules and we connect everything on site. Most buildings are ready to occupy within days of arrival, depending on specification.
Throughout your hire period, maintenance and servicing are included as part of the agreement, so your building stays fully operational without extra cost to arrange. If your requirements change, a named contact stays with your project to adapt the building, extend the term or adjust the specification, without you needing to restart the process. We deliver 99.7% of buildings on time and on budget. If we miss that commitment, you receive a week's free hire for every day we run late.
