Built by the people on the tools
When you contact Contained Living & Co, you’re talking to Jack Cunningham, who designs, builds and delivers every conversion. There’s no call centre and no middleman. The person who quotes your build is the person who builds it.
Jack has spent more than fifteen years on the tools as a qualified kitchen fitter. That matters more than it might sound. Fitting kitchens is precision joinery in tight, finish-critical spaces: getting lines straight, panels flush and finishes flawless where every millimetre is on show. It’s compact-space design and interior finishing of exactly the kind a great container conversion demands. He’s built his name on getting the best possible outcome for every customer, on big jobs and small.
Why containers, why now
We’d wanted to do this for a long time. The right opportunity came along: a large supply of quality containers we can start converting straight away. That ready stock is a real advantage for you: there’s no waiting on a supplier before your build can begin. When the job’s agreed, work starts.
A shipping container is a brilliant starting point: strong, weather-tight, secure and structural before we’ve touched it. Our job is to turn that steel shell into a room you’d never guess started as a box: properly insulated, beautifully finished and built to last. We back the structure of every conversion with a 5-year structural guarantee.
How we work
Straight-talking, no nonsense, and built around you rather than off a shelf. We’ll tell you honestly what your idea needs, including where planning or Building Regs come into it, and we’ll never claim a credential we don’t hold. As jobs complete, we’ll publish photos of the work and genuine customer reviews here. For now, the renders across the site are concept images showing the standard we build to.
