Professional Welfare Solutions in Portsmouth
For construction and commercial projects across Portsmouth, providing high-quality site welfare is a statutory requirement. Adacon’s P600 system allows site managers to move beyond basic steel boxes. Our modules are manufactured in our specialist facility and delivered to site fully finished, featuring plastered walls, LED lighting, and high-performance insulation. This ensures a comfortable environment for staff, which is essential for productivity and retention on long-term projects.
As a leading provider of modular buildings in Portsmouth, we understand the specific logistical challenges of the city. From the narrow residential streets of Fratton to the high-wind environments of the seafront, our modular system is designed for durability and rapid assembly. These are not "converted containers"; they are purpose-built steel-framed structures that meet modern building expectations.
Typical Configurations and Capacity
The P600 system is highly flexible. Each module provides approximately 13 m² of floor space, and these can be linked side-by-side or stacked to create larger complexes.
- Single Module (13 m²): Ideal for small sites or as a dedicated security gatehouse. Typically configured as a combined kitchenette and rest area for 4-6 operatives.
- Double Module (26 m²): A popular choice for mid-sized projects. Often split into a separate canteen area and a drying room/WC block, suitable for up to 12 staff.
- Four+ Modules (52 m²+): Multi-module complexes designed for major residential or infrastructure works. These can include partitioned offices, full-sized canteens, multiple modular toilet blocks, and separate meeting rooms.
What is Included as Standard?
Every P600 unit delivered to Portsmouth includes a high level of internal finish as standard, reducing the need for secondary fit-out trades. The following are included in the base price:
- Fully insulated steel-framed walls, floor, and roof for year-round thermal efficiency.
- Internal walls finished with plasterboard, skimmed, and painted.
- Commercial-grade laminate flooring and integrated LED lighting.
- Double-glazed uPVC windows and secure external doors.
- A choice of exterior cladding colours to suit your branding or site aesthetic.
- Internal power sockets and a consumer unit ready for final connection.
Optional extras frequently requested for Portsmouth sites include air conditioning for summer cooling, modular shower blocks for groundworks teams, and external decking or staircases for two-storey configurations.
Indicative Pricing for Site Welfare
Prices for site welfare units in Portsmouth typically range from £18,000 to £70,000. This variation depends on the number of modules required and the complexity of the internal fit-out (such as the number of WCs, showers, or kitchenettes).
Because we use a modular system, you can design your exact layout using our free P600 configurator. This tool allows you to place windows and doors, choose your cladding, and receive an instant price estimate without needing to speak to a salesperson.
Delivery and Installation to Portsmouth
Portsmouth’s unique geography—being largely situated on Portsea Island—presents specific delivery considerations. Most units arrive via the M27 and M275, but local access can vary significantly:
- Urban Sites: In dense areas like Southsea or North End, we frequently coordinate with crane hire companies for over-the-roof lifts where street access is narrow.
- Commercial Hubs: Sites near Lakeside North Harbour or the Portsmouth International Port generally offer easier HGV access and ample space for positioning.
- Ground Requirements: The customer is responsible for ensuring a level, prepared base (such as concrete pads or a slab) and all final utility connections. We can provide the necessary loading data for your groundworks team.
Lead Times
We pride ourselves on speed. While bespoke orders typically take a few weeks to manufacture and deliver, we often have "Ready to Order" stock units available for immediate dispatch to Portsmouth for urgent site starts. You can request an accurate timeline by visiting our quote page.

Contractors choose Adacon because we provide a permanent-feel building with the flexibility of a temporary unit. Our buildings are relocatable, meaning they can be moved to your next project once the current site is decommissioned. Unlike traditional site huts, the P600 offers a professional environment that reflects well on your business when hosting clients or local authority inspectors.
