Nottinghamshire company Spinelock UK has an innovative
approach to building homes. The firm 'engineers' houses rather than simply
constructs them. Homes are manufactured and assembled in their factory, in four
parts. The average three-bedroom home sells for £159,000. As well as being
quick to build, the homes are also cheap to run – with a range of eco-gadgets
meaning running costs are as low as £250 a year. Houses are built to
engineering standards, with insulation, rainwater harvesting and renewable
energy systems incorporated into the design. They are then lifted onto the back
of a lorry, transported to the site and placed on pile foundations and quickly
locked together using Spinelock's patented joining system. Read more on the
