Both options have their advantages, and the best choice for you will depend on your project, timeline, and budget. This article will explore the benefits of each option to help you make the right decision.

 

Why Choose Standard Hire Units?

Standard hire units are pre-designed, readily available, and cost-effective, making them an excellent choice for projects that require a quick and efficient solution. Here’s why you might choose a standard hire unit:

1. Fast Availability
These units are already built and ready for delivery, offering a quick turnaround time. This is ideal for projects requiring immediate site offices, accommodation, or amenities.

2. Proven Functionality
Designed with practicality and efficiency in mind, standard hire units are well-suited for a range of industries, including construction, education, and office spaces. Their proven layouts ensure they meet the functional requirements of different work environments while maintaining ease of use and reliability.

4. Ease of Installation
These units provide straightforward delivery and setup, helping you avoid project schedule delays and ensuring you have the space needed when you need it. Tasbuilt Hire offers a seamless experience with professional installation and ongoing support, letting you focus on what matters most in your project.

Why Choose Custom-Designed Hire Units?

If your project has specific requirements that go beyond what standard units offer, custom-designed hire units may be the best solution. With years of experience in the industry, Tasbuilt has built a reputation for delivering custom-built modular unit solutions. Whether you need a simple modification or a fully customised design, we work closely with you to create a space that meets your exact requirements.?

Here’s why you might choose a custom design:

1. Tailored to Your Needs
From layout adjustments to additional features, custom-designed hire units can be modified to match your exact project requirements. Whether you need extra workspace, or specific facilities, a custom design ensures you get what you need.

2. Enhanced Comfort and Efficiency
For long-term projects, having a space that is optimised for comfort and productivity is crucial. With Tasbuilt Hire, you can customise your hire unit to include insulation, climate control, advanced security features, and other enhancements, ensuring a work environment that supports efficiency and well-being. 

3. Flexible Design Options
Need a larger office? More storage? Special accessibility features? A custom-designed unit allows for greater flexibility, ensuring your temporary structure is fit-for-purpose.

Making the Right Choice

Choosing between standard and custom-designed hire units depends on several key factors related to your project's needs. Here’s how to make the best decision:

  • Project Duration: For short-term projects that need a quick, efficient solution, standard hire units are a practical choice. However, for longer-term projects, investing in a custom-designed unit can ensure that the space grows with your project’s evolving needs.
     
  • Budget: If you’re working within a tight budget, standard hire units are a cost-effective solution. They provide reliable, high-quality space without the added expense of customisation. On the other hand, if your budget allows for a more tailored approach, a custom-designed unit can offer additional features and flexibility.
     
  • Urgency: If you need space immediately, standard hire units offer fast delivery and installation, allowing you to avoid delays and keep your project on track. If you can afford a bit more time, custom-designed units can be built to your exact specifications, creating the ideal environment for your team or clients.
     
  • Special Requirements: If your project demands specific features such as layout adjustments, extra facilities, or a unique design, custom-designed hire units will offer the flexibility to meet those needs perfectly.
