Temporary Accommodation for Construction Workers
Trade Rentals provides temporary accommodation for construction workers across Scotland — fully furnished houses and apartments booked for the exclusive use of your site team, for as long as the programme runs.
Construction programmes rarely stay still. Mobilisation dates move, headcounts change and sites are often in towns with almost no hotel stock. We source housing near the compound, hold it for your project and flex the dates as the build progresses — on one company account with a single VAT invoice.
From two site managers on a six-week fit-out to 200 groundworkers on a multi-year civils package, every property is exclusive use. No shared rooms, no HMOs, no strangers in the kitchen after a 12-hour shift.
Benefits for Construction Teams
Exclusive use, never shared
Your crew has the whole property. No HMOs, no shared rooms with the public — better rest, better retention on site.
20–40% cheaper than hotels
On stays of a week or more, per-head nightly rates undercut hotel rack rates and include all bills.
Flexible dates that follow the programme
Weather delays and rescheduled mobilisations happen. We flex extensions and early releases rather than charging hotel cancellation fees.
Kitchens, laundry and drying space
Crews cook their own food and dry wet site gear overnight — cutting subsistence costs and next-morning delays.
Parking for vans and plant vehicles
Off-street parking on most contractor houses, with space for site vans and tool storage.
Housing near the site, not the city centre
We place teams within a short commute of the compound, including remote Highland and island projects.
One invoice, one account manager
All properties across all sites billed on a single VAT invoice with PO-based billing and monthly terms.
Scales from 2 to 200 workers
From a pair of site managers to a full groundworks mobilisation booked as one project package.
