Modular Buildings
Springfield are second to none! Everything that was required they did for us. All the staff were very helpful and the service was good. Diane even came out in person to explain the process stage by stage.

What Is A Modular Building?
Modular buildings are sectional structures which are built off-site, transported where required and securely connected together to create your finished build. The units may form complete rooms or parts of rooms.
We have over 45 years’ experience in providing bespoke modular units to both the private and public sector, ranging from schools and nurseries, to business and leisure facilities right across the UK. Our flexible and cost-effective modular buildings offer an unparalleled level of convenience and style; all the benefits of a traditional build at a fraction of the cost and time!
Why Choose A Modular Building From Springfield?
We are a well-respected dedicated manufacturer of high quality, relocatable modular building systems.
Our expert craftsmen only use superior quality building materials when designing and manufacturing our modular buildings. The construction of our buildings takes places in our own 40,000 sp. ft. ISO-approved workshop to ensure only high-quality production methods are used during every step of the manufacturing process. We constantly seek out and source the very best materials for the job, with a keen eye for environmentally-friendly products – where justified. This means you can be sure of owning a building that satisfies the most demanding examinations of quality, value and social responsibility.
Additionally, whether you opt for one, two or three storey modular building systems, our craftsmen’s acute attention to detail and long-standing industry professionalism is guaranteed to result in a durable and stylish end product.
All of our modular units are fully customisable. You can choose from a wide range of exterior finishes, including brick slip, steel clad, PVC timber effect cladding and natural wood. You can also choose from a pitched, flat or steel roof, and select from a diverse range of external fascia’s and window styles. This means your modular building can be made to fit in with your existing building’s style, look aesthetically pleasing and enhance its surroundings.
The interior of your building will be fully fitted with lighting, heating, partitioning and plumbing during the manufacturing process; all to your specification. Every one of our buildings is thoroughly tested to exceed building regulations, including electrical and energy efficiency.

Hiring A Modular Building
We offer a bespoke hiring solution for all of our clients. Choosing from either our current stock or, dependent on length of term, a new, bespoke building, we accommodate a flexible hiring scheme. We offer two primary types of contracts:
- • a client-based contract where you decide on the contract period, anywhere between three months and five years, with a rental fee fixed for its duration
- • an open-ended contract with no fixed length
Either choice provides an affordable option for clients who find themselves on a tight budget or simply see greater benefit and flexibility in hiring a building rather than buying one outright. Find out more about our hiring option here.
