    We’ll:

    1. Review your land and goals
    2. Recommend suitable models
    3. Provide pricing and timescales
    4. Secure your production slot with a deposit
  • Do Live Off Grid homes meet UK building standards?

    Yes, all structures meet the relevant standards for their category:

    • Mobile units: built to caravan / mobile home regulations
    • Fixed dwellings: meet or exceed UK building regulation standards

    We’ll clarify which category your chosen home falls under before you order.

  • Do your homes come fully fitted and ready to live in?

    Yes – our standard builds include insulation, electrics, windows, bathroom, kitchen, storage, and lighting so you can move straight in.

    Optional upgrades include solar systems, underfloor heating, furniture, and premium finishes.

  • Can I customise the interior layout and finish?

    Absolutely. You can customise some level of:

    • layout
    • materials
    • colours
    • windows
    • fixtures
    • storage solutions

    Most clients choose a blend of our proven layouts with personalised details that suit their lifestyle. Start your design brief via Get Started.

  • What payment options are available?

    We use a simple, structured payment process:

    • Initial deposit to secure your design and production slot
    • Stage payments during build
    • Final balance before delivery

    Finance can be arranged depending on model and requirements. Your consultant will break it down after your enquiry.

  • Can I get a mortgage or finance for an off-grid home?

    Traditional mortgages usually require a permanent dwelling with full planning permission.

    For cabins, tiny homes, and container units, customers typically get finance through:

    • Specialist modular-home lenders
    • Business asset finance (common for hosts/investors)
    • Personal loans
    • Company purchases (Ltd companies buying accommodation assets)

    We can provide the drawings and documentation lenders need. Use Get Started across the website and we’ll guide you through the best route based on your chosen model and intended use.

  • How long does it take to build and deliver a tiny house?

    Most cabins take 1216 weeks from design sign-off to completion.

    Delivery depends on:

    • your location
    • access conditions
    • delivery vehicle availability

    We’ll confirm your exact window once your production slot is secured.

    Yes, our cabins can be supplied with:

    • solar panels

    • composting or off-grid waste options

    You can also start with a hybrid setup and upgrade later.

  • How are the homes delivered?

    Delivery is carried out using:

    • Towed vehicle (Canopy tiny homes)
    • HIAB trucks (most common)
    • Crane-assisted deliveries for tight or elevated sites, including larger container home projects

    Your cabin may arrive fully constructed and can be positioned directly onto your prepared foundations. Container homes or modular pods often require building and preparation on-site.
