You spoilt with that last line, I was going to say, they are very large and made of logs.

if UK built will probably come in 4 sections of 12ft x 40ft bolted together.

You are mean (unless you still have the Apalacian family Yodelling group's phone number)

Aww come on chaps I need real help here

OK Ant eater - so I would need about 4 of them (why that size?)

Where do I get them from?

Most are built in Hull.
That size cos its the industry standard and as large as can be transported on wagon!

Katymac · 28/08/2006 18:14

I thought they came in pieces

Hull - the caravan (and associated trades ) capital of England.

Katymac · 28/08/2006 18:22

Lovely - however I think I'll use JCB's and powertools

Katymac · 28/08/2006 18:24

JackieNo - they are nice but not big enough

How about these (bottom left - Twyford commercial range)?

SaintGeorgeMarple · 28/08/2006 18:28

Various amenity buildings from Cosalt

DH works for Cosalt.

Blossomhill · 28/08/2006 18:31

Can I be nosey and ask what you need them for, as intrigued!

Katymac · 28/08/2006 18:35

I will contact Twyford and cosalt tomorrow

Neither has any prices - but thanks guys it gives me somwhere to start

I want a building level with the ground rather than a portacabin

Any more ideas?

OP posts:

I am trying to open a nursery (maybe) - but portacabins are so high of the ground it makes outdoor access really hard for under 3's

OP posts:

Why do the portacabins have to be so high, I have been in loads of temporary ones that are quite low. I take it the more permanant ones have to be set higher due to the construction.

Skribble · 28/08/2006 21:31

What about long wide ramps from the doors you will probably need this for disabled access anyway.

Katymac · 28/08/2006 21:32

It's just I'm gonna need about 4 at nearly £3k each

OP posts:
Skribble · 28/08/2006 21:48

How the hell can a ramp cost 3k, get a local joiner to do them for you. In fact I will send my FIL , he is a joiner for the NHS.

Katymac · 28/08/2006 21:52

It is apparently to do with insurance and british standards (ffs & I don't swear often)

OP posts:
JackieNo · 28/08/2006 21:53

What if it's a permanent concretey sort of ramp?
