Crown Portable Building Process

Yes. We can manufacture according to your specific requirements to ensure you get a portable building that is fit for purpose. We can customize your portable building size, layout and can fit custom size joinery. We can also fit some optional extras: AC units, data points, etc.

 

We have a range of standard portable building floorplans available which has been designed with optimum functionality and efficiency in mind. These are a cost-effective option that can address most requirements. We cover everything from transportable offices, transportable lunchrooms, ablution blocks, seasonal worker accommodation, self-contained portable buildings, and sleepouts.

Most of our raw materials are manufactured right here in NZ (flooring, floor coverings, insulated panel walls / ceiling, flashings, joinery, etc). This ensures we support local industries and means that we can deliver a quality product standing the test of time in NZ conditions.  

Our portable buildings come with a 32amp externally mounted Appliance inlet (Caravan plug). A power lead can be plugged into the appliance inlet to power the building.

Alternatively, a hard wire connection onsite into the switchboard by an LBP electrician.

Crown Portable Buildings are provided with an Electrical Certificate of Compliance.

All internal plumbing is completed and connected between the various items (Sinks, basins, shower and toilets). One water inlet connection on the outside of the building connects to the onsite water supply and will feed the whole portable building. One main waste pipe connects the building waste to the waste on-site (with the exclusion of the toilet waste connection). One toilet waste pipe connection per toilet will be ready for connection on the outside of the portable building.

Plumbing PS3 can be issued for all plumbing works.

Gas califont and associated pipework with regulator and chains are fitted as standard when gas fitting is part of the scope of works.

Gas certificate is issued accordingly.

We require 25% deposit upon accepting and signing the quote. Manufacturing will only start once deposit has been paid. The remainder of the funds need to be paid before the portable building can be despatched. Paperwork are issued for all transactions.

From the time the contract is signed and deposit is paid; it usually takes around 4 weeks to have a building ready for delivery. Lead times can vary depending on the amount of customised joinery required so it’s best to check when reviewing our quote.

Council consent depends on the size and application of the portable building. There are a number factors to consider but in most cases, if the building is larger than 10m², involves plumbing or is used as accommodation, then council consent will be required.

Please keep in mind that the council consent process adds approx. 1 month to the lead time of your portable building.

Our consent process does not involve resource consent from council.
