Temporary buildings boast tons of benefits for those who use them. As well as being quick to install and adaptable once they’re up and running (thanks to adaptable modules), temporary buildings come in handy when businesses want to quickly ramp up operations but don’t have the space to do it or the capital to buy new buildings outright.
But if you’re considering temporary building installations, you’re probably wondering how long the process will take. While it’s a little like asking, ‘How long is a piece of string?’ (every project is different), temporary building installations can typically be completed in a week or two.
That’s right – in just one week, you could have a whole new space up and running, ready to be used for extra business operations for which you currently lack the space. The beauty of a temporary building is that it can be used in whatever way you require – as all-important storage, as an extra workspace, or even just to fully utilise the land you own.
If time is of the essence when it comes to your temporary building installations, here are a few ways to speed up the process.
A surefire way to ensure your temporary building installation process is not only speedy but also reliable is to work with a trusted provider. The right building hire specialist will have plenty of experience working on a project like yours, so they’ll know how to get everything in place for an installation that goes off with no hitches.
Look for a provider that’s always contactable, so you can not only get a speedy quote in the first instance, but also receive timely maintenance visits when needed.
Speed up the process by looking in advance for a potential location for your temporary building. If you have at least an area in mind, you’ll save tons of time and effort looking for something suitable later down the line. Your temporary building provider can advise if the location is suitable.
Get as much information as possible about your temporary building requirements before speaking with the installer. Work out where the temporary building will be, how long you’ll need it for, and how quickly you’d like it to be installed.
Consider whether you need any additional services or appliances, too. For example, if you need chiller hire or HVAC systems, the installer might be able to provide them or at least point you in the right direction.
If you need temporary power installed in the building, that can take a couple more weeks once the installation is over. Work with a reliable temporary building installations provider with plenty of experience to help you with the process.
Still not sure whether a temporary building is right for you? Here are some typical scenarios in which a temporary building can be useful.
Chilled storage. While these spaces will naturally require installation to stay at the required temperature, temporary buildings make great chilled storage spaces for perishable goods. They work for regular storage, too – it doesn’t have to be temperature-sensitive. If you find your business is growing and you don’t have anywhere to store new goods and equipment, a temporary building can be just the answer.
Take advantage of spare land. If your business premises have spare, unused land, why not put them to good use by erecting a temporary building for storage and business operations?
Extend existing buildings. If you can’t afford a permanent extension but want to extend the space you have available from an existing building, you can erect a temporary one with modules that make it easy to adapt to whatever space you need in the moment.
Increase capacity for business operations. Is your business growing at a speed you can’t keep up with? Give yourself extra space to carry out business operations by temporarily hiring a building, whether it’s for storing goods or even using it as an office space, while you build the capital to move into something more permanent. Or don’t – temporary buildings can be a better option for use as and when you need them.
