Working on UK energy infrastructure
The UK's energy build-out spans far more than the headline power stations: National Grid reinforcement and new transmission lines, substation builds, interconnector landfalls, carbon-capture clusters around Teesside and the Humber, hydrogen pilots, battery storage farms and the onshore works behind offshore wind. The common thread is location, energy infrastructure goes where the grid and the geography demand, not where the hotels are.
That puts crews in coastal towns, industrial estuaries and rural corridors for months at a time: civils gangs on substation platforms, cable-pull teams moving along a route, commissioning engineers rotating through energisation phases.
How we house energy crews
We house teams in real houses near the work, Teesside and Humber industrial sites, southwest landfall points, Scottish corridor towns, with parking for 4x4s and vans, space for kit, and kitchens that make month-long stays liveable. Route-based packages can relocate the same crew along the line as sections complete.
One account, one consolidated invoice, flexible extensions when energisation slips, which, on grid work, it often does.
Frequently asked questions
Yes - we regularly accommodate SC and DV cleared nuclear industry personnel for Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C, and nuclear decommissioning projects with appropriate security protocols.
Absolutely - we understand nuclear new build timelines and provide long-term accommodation contracts with phase-by-phase scaling as construction progresses.
We have established networks providing 400+ beds across Somerset for HPC and 300+ beds across Suffolk for Sizewell C, with regional transport coordination for remote site access.
Usually, yes. With 175+ cities and towns covered we can normally cluster houses in the nearest market town and keep drive times practical, even where there is no meaningful hotel stock.
Yes, rotations and crew swaps are routine on energy jobs. The booking stays continuous while the names change, so the project keeps the houses and the paperwork stays simple.
Typically 30–45% less than equivalent hotel spend for crews, from £25 per person per night with bills included, and the savings grow with stay length and team size.
Yes. We regularly house teams on nuclear new build, decommissioning and major energy infrastructure, and we plan stays around shift patterns, site security and the longer rotations these projects run.
