A better way of building

Our modular building hire service provides a fast, flexible and efficient accommodation solution and each structure can be created to virtually any size up to four storeys tall, and fit any number of people. The modular structures can be connected side to side, end to end and stacked to offer adaptable spaces tailored to your needs.

Algeco modular buildings for hire offer working environments comparable to permanent buildings, so you don't have to sacrifice quality for speed and convenience. You'll benefit from total flexibility when you hire modular buildings too, as you can take a building for as long as you need it and spread the cost in monthly payments. You'll then simply return it when you no longer need it. 

Our temporary modular building systems are designed to permanent standards and are compliant with building regulations for added peace of mind. What's more, they also meet specialist sector specification standards for education and healthcare use as well. 

Faster, non-traditional construction

Algeco Portable Buildings For Hire

What are the different modular buildings available?

Portable buildings or cabins

Smaller and more basic than modular buildings, single-piece cabins are widely used for temporary space needs – particularly as site accommodation for UK construction companies. Portable cabins can be stacked and linked to form larger complexes, which is useful where space is tight.

Volumetric modular buildings

These are buildings made from whole ‘modules’ and are manufactured in factory controlled conditions before being transported to the site individually. They're then craned into position and put together to form complete buildings.

These modular buildings tend to be low-rise and made from steel. The level of module internal finish varies according to what you need and whether you're buying or hiring. You can choose from basic shells to fully fitted-out offices, nurseries, restaurants and living accommodations.

Volumetric modular buildings are often low-rise - up to four storeys high, with virtually unlimited floor areas possible.

Buildings available to hire and buy

Hire buildings are simpler, with less customisation available because of their temporary role and the need to be reused by other people. A vast range of external customisation options are normally available when buying volumetric modular buildings. Cladding, render and brick wall treatments, window and glazed ‘curtain walling’ fenestration options, plus ‘traditional’ gable, mono and mansard pitched roofs over and above the default flat roofs standard on volumetric modular buildings.  

Offsite Construction

This is the completion of building components at a different location to where they are permanently sited. ‘Post and panel’ and ‘timber frame’ systems are examples of offsite construction, which can also include volumetric modular building.

Offsite construction is usually used for permanent buildings as these buildings can’t easily be moved or expanded, unlike volumetric modular buildings. Algeco is a leading offsite construction manufacturing company and our modular buildings are suitable for a range of purposes.
