Guides
The questions people ask before they ask us for a price. Each guide is written from the regulation or the source document, not from a competitor's summary, and carries the date it was last checked — because the rules move, and a guide that doesn't say when it was true is a guess.

The definition, the four words people mix up, how one is built step by step, what it's made of, whether it counts as a real house for planning, mortgages and insurance, and an honest list of where modular wins and where it doesn't.

Some things don't need a guide — they're on the page you'd buy from. Prices are published by size on every home page; each county page carries the planning position for that county; the extensions page explains the 45 m² exemption.
