hup! walls and the case for a modular house extension
Every modular house extension we build across Telford, Shrewsbury, Shropshire and the Walsall area starts with the hup! wall system, combining strong thermal performance with fast installation. It adapts to almost any layout, which makes it a genuinely flexible choice for a modular house extension.
Patented Ultrapanel technology
The Ultrapanel system used within hup! walls combines timber, steel and high-performance insulation in a unique patented design. By combining the strength of steel, the versatility of timber and exceptional thermal efficiency, Ultrapanel creates a robust, highly insulated structure that minimises thermal bridging and delivers outstanding energy performance.
Rapid construction
The rapid clip-fit technology used across hup! walls and roofs enables your new extension to be built up to five times faster than traditional construction.
With installation possible in virtually any weather, a smaller extension can be built and made watertight in as little as 2–3 days, helping to avoid typical weather and scheduling delays.
Light and slim
Because hup! walls are lightweight, they can often be installed on an existing suitable base as part of a modular house extension, where heavier brick and mortar construction may require a completely new foundation. Their reduced weight also makes the panels easier for installation teams to handle, helping to keep the build moving quickly.
The slimmer wall construction can also create 10–15% more usable floor space than a traditionally built brick extension, helping homeowners make better use of the footprint available.
Energy Efficient
Thanks to the high proportion of super-insulation within each panel, hup! walls are 6% more energy efficient than a wall built to current Building Regulations.
What shapes the price of your extension
What drives modular house extension costs?
Formula One Windows manages design, planning and build as one team, so several trade handovers disappear from the schedule entirely - a key factor when considering modular house extension costs.
hup! walls and roofs are manufactured off site to a fixed specification, helping to provide greater cost certainty once the build starts rather than allowing costs to creep upward as they can with a traditional extension.
hup! technology | A tested lifespan you can rely on
The patented Ultrapanel system carries a minimum 60-year life expectancy, awarded by the British Board of Agrément (BBA) following independent testing and assessment. It's not simply a figure we've come up with ourselves - the system has been independently tested and verified, giving you confidence in its long-term performance.
