Built differently
Precision in the workshop. Calm on your site.
Every BLOXX project is designed with precision, built off-site to a high standard, and delivered with as little disruption as possible.
That holds whether you are extending your home, making your mark at a major event, adding a pool for the summer or planning for the unthinkable. One method, four divisions, each drawn for the client and the site.

The BLOXX difference
Three things a traditional build cannot match.
The same principles run through every division, from a garden pool to an underground commission.
Off-site precision
Every BLOXX structure is engineered and built in our facility before it reaches site. Tighter tolerances, faster installation, and a finish that is hard to match on an open site.
Minimal disruption
Crane delivery means your home, garden or event site is disrupted for days, not months. We arrive, we install, we leave.
Designed around you
No off-the-shelf solutions. Every project, from a home extension to an underground build, is drawn for the client, the site and the brief.
How a project runs
From first conversation to handover.
Factory build and site preparation run side by side, so the disruptive part is short. Exact steps vary by division.
- 01
Consultation
Your requirements, the site and your design preferences.
- 02
Design and planning
Detailed drawings, plus advice and support on planning applications.
- 03
Factory build
Your structure is built in a controlled workshop environment.
- 04
Crane installation
Delivered and lifted into position on prepared groundworks.
- 05
Final touches
Finishes, connections and quality checks completed.
Why off-site
Days on site, not months.
On a traditional build every trade waits for the one before it, and the weather gets a vote. With BLOXX the building is made in the workshop while the groundworks happen on site, so it is craned straight on to them.
Traditional buildMonths of disruption on site
Groundworks, frame, roof, first fix, finishes: one after another.
BLOXX, off-siteCraned into position in days
The groundworks are finished as the building arrives, then it is craned straight on to them: days on site.
Illustrative comparison. Actual programmes depend on the project and are set out in each proposal.
What is modular construction?Planning permission depends on your site.
Some BLOXX projects can go ahead under permitted development. Others need a full application. It turns on size, height, distance from boundaries, the type of property, and whether it is listed or in a Conservation Area, National Park or other designated area. Building Regulations still apply to a substantial extension, and an underground build will almost always need planning permission.
We will talk you through the position for your site. Your local planning authority has the final word.

- Single-storey rear kitchen extension
- On site
- Craned into position in two days

A keen triathlete wanted to train and recover at home for a season. The dual configuration gave a heated pool and a cold ice bath in one unit, set on the existing lawn.
- Brief
- Heated pool plus ice bath, rear garden
- Hire
- Three months, craned out at the end
Client words
In their words.
The digger never came near the house. Two days of crane work and we had the kitchen we wanted, opening straight onto the garden.
Home extension client, Kent
We planned the whole stand around the roof terrace and it was where everyone wanted to be. Striking it afterwards took a fraction of the time we had allowed.
Event organiser, West Sussex
The survey settled the access question in an afternoon. When the hire ended the unit went back over the hedge and the lawn looked as it did before.

BLOXX Home
Do I need planning permission for a home extension in the UK?
Many single-storey extensions can go ahead under permitted development, but not all. What the rules cover, when you need to apply, and why Building Regulations always apply.
Construction
What is modular construction, and why does it matter?
Modular construction builds most of a building off-site, then installs it in days. How it differs from a traditional build, the main types, and where the real advantages lie.
BLOXX Live
Sustainable event structures: the end of the single-use stand
Bespoke stands are often built for a few days, then skipped. How reusable modular pavilions work, who they suit, and how BLOXX Live is hired.
