Mobile homes for self-build...
 

Hi,

I'm looking for a mobile home to put on site during our build (starts
mid-march). We are in Kent, so I'm looking for recommended suppliers in the
SE - we don't need cooking or toilet facilities, just a couple of bedrooms
and an open area (the mobile is just for 2 kids' bedrooms - everything and
everyone else is in the building next door). It's for 10 months - good hard
standing and power available.

Any ideas for suppliers apart from those in the back of Built-It etc.? (or
even experiences of those)

many thanks

Mike

Have you thought about a portable building rather than a mobile home?
We rented a small one to put all our posessions in while building was
going on and it was actually fully fitted as an office.

A portakabin type office building sounds like it should have everything
you want. And the nice thing about these is that they are available
for long-term rent.

I wouldn't even consider using one for kids bedrooms without toilet
facilities. If you don't have them, you're going to have a lot of wet sheets
and mattresses to clean. The difference between having a bunk or a standard
bed is large enough, without having to get dressed and walk to another
building in the middle of the night to relieve themselves.
