Built for the realities of busy construction sites

Construction projects need internet that can be installed quickly, perform reliably and adapt as the site changes. Our solutions are designed for temporary environments where fixed lines are too slow, too rigid or simply unavailable.

Fixed-line broadband and leased-line installations can take weeks or, on more complex sites, months where surveys, wayleaves, civils or new infrastructure are required. We bypass those delays, getting your site fully operational in as little as 48 hours using 4G/5G, Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), line-of-sight wireless and hybrid technologies.

We work with construction companies across the UK including Bovis Homes, Redrow, United Utilities and the NHS, designing and deploying connections that hold up through every phase of a project.

Why construction sites struggle with WiFi (and how we fix it)

Poor connectivity on construction sites is not inevitable. The causes are predictable, and with the right setup, every one of them is fixable.

  • No fixed line available

    Many construction sites need to be operational before fibre, a leased line or other fixed connectivity is installed. We provide fast wireless alternatives so site offices, CCTV and essential systems can get online while permanent infrastructure is unavailable or still being delivered.

  • Remote or difficult locations

    Housing developments, utility works and infrastructure projects often start in locations where fixed broadband is limited or unavailable. We assess mobile coverage, nearby connectivity options and site conditions, then use the most suitable combination of 4G/5G, Fixed Wireless Access, line-of-sight wireless or satellite.

  • Multiple systems on one connection

    Construction sites often run CCTV, VoIP, video calls, cloud project-management platforms, BIM and large drawing or CAD file transfers over the same connection. We design the network around those requirements, with sufficient bandwidth and traffic prioritisation to keep critical systems performing when the site is busy.

  • Temporary compounds and changing layouts

    Site layouts change as projects move through different phases, with offices, welfare cabins, compounds and active work areas often relocating or expanding. We design the network so access points and connectivity can be moved, extended or reconfigured as the site develops, while minimising disruption.

  • Pressure to stay operational

    Poor connectivity can affect communications, reporting, security systems and overall programme delivery, creating delays and additional costs across a project. A reliable connection keeps critical site systems and teams working when they need them.

  • Need for support, not just hardware

    Construction teams need a provider that can advise, deploy and actively support a working solution, not just drop off a router and leave. We monitor your connection remotely and are available 24/7.

What our construction site internet can connect

Our construction site broadband solutions cover every operational area, from the first day on site through to practical completion.

Modular welfare cabins and site offices connected with temporary broadband

Site Offices and Welfare Cabins

Keep project managers, engineers and admin teams connected to email, video calls, cloud platforms, BIM, project drawings and systems such as Procore and Autodesk. Separate WiFi can also be provided for welfare cabins, helping keep staff access apart from business-critical site systems where required.

CCTV and Site Security

Connect CCTV cameras, remote monitoring, cloud recording and access-control systems alongside the rest of your site network. We account for the upload bandwidth and continuous data demands of CCTV when designing the connection, so security systems don't have to compete with video calls, cloud platforms and other critical site traffic.

Remote and Rural Developments

Connect rural developments, new-build sites and infrastructure projects where fixed broadband is unavailable or still being delivered. Depending on local coverage and site conditions, we can use 4G/5G, Fixed Wireless Access, line-of-sight wireless or satellite to provide the most practical connection for the project.

Temporary Compounds

Connect temporary site compounds from the start of a project, including offices, welfare units, security systems and shared working areas. The network can then be extended, relocated or reconfigured as the compound and wider site develop.

Renovation and Refurbishment

Get temporary internet in place quickly for live buildings undergoing phased works, where operational continuity is critical and disruption to existing occupants must be minimised.

Utility and Infrastructure Works

Keep field teams, monitoring systems and reporting tools connected on utility and infrastructure projects where sites are spread across wide geographic areas.

Internet options for construction sites

The right solution depends on your site location, signal availability, timescales and how the network will be used. We recommend the best-fit technology for your project rather than a one-size-fits-all product.

Most Popular

Bonded 4G / 5G Broadband

Rapid to deploy and ideal for construction sites where speed, flexibility and minimal fixed infrastructure matter. Multiple mobile connections can be bonded for greater capacity and resilience, with external antennas used where needed to improve signal performance.

Setup: same day to 48 hours. Speeds: up to 300 Mbps (5G). Contracts: rolling monthly.

Where a Clear Path Is Available

Line-of-Sight Wireless

High-speed broadband delivered from a nearby fixed point using directional antennas. A strong option for remote sites where mobile signal is unreliable or where higher, more consistent speeds are required.

Setup: 3 to 5 days. Speeds: up to 1 Gbps. Ideal for: rural and semi-rural sites.

Maximum Resilience

Hybrid Solutions

Combine multiple connectivity sources such as 4G/5G, line-of-sight and satellite to reduce reliance on a single connection. Automatic failover can switch traffic to a secondary link if the primary connection fails, helping keep CCTV, VoIP, cloud platforms and other critical site systems connected.

Recommended for: sites where downtime has direct cost implications.

For Hard-to-Reach Sites

LEO Satellite Broadband

Low Earth Orbit satellite broadband can connect construction sites where fixed infrastructure, mobile coverage and line-of-sight wireless are not practical options. It is particularly useful for remote projects where terrestrial connectivity is limited or unavailable.

Setup: 24 to 48 hours. Ideal for: offshore, highland and deep rural projects.

Construction site internet: frequently asked questions

How quickly can construction site internet be installed?
In most cases we can have a fully operational connection in place within 48 hours of a site assessment. For urgent requirements, our emergency internet service can often be deployed the same day. The exact timeline depends on your site location, the technology required and equipment availability.
Can you provide internet for remote or rural construction sites?
Yes. We deploy 4G/5G broadband, Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), line-of-sight microwave and Low Earth Orbit satellite broadband to reach sites in any location across the UK, including rural, highland and offshore projects where traditional broadband infrastructure is unavailable.
What can construction site WiFi be used for?
Our solutions support CCTV and remote monitoring, VoIP communications, cloud-based project management platforms such as Procore and Autodesk, BIM tools, health and safety reporting, general internet access for site teams and contractor coordination. Commercial-grade hardware with traffic prioritisation ensures critical systems always get the bandwidth they need.
Do I need a long-term contract?
No. We offer flexible rolling monthly contracts rather than locking you into 12 or 24-month agreements. You can scale up, scale down or end the service as your project requires.
Can the internet solution move as the site changes?
Yes. Our solutions are designed to be adapted and relocated as the site layout evolves throughout the project lifecycle, without service interruption. Access points, antennas and equipment can be repositioned as cabins, compounds and active work areas shift.
Does construction site internet require a fixed telephone line?
No. We can provide construction site internet without waiting for a fixed telephone line or fibre connection to be installed. Depending on the site, the incoming connection can use bonded 4G/5G, Fixed Wireless Access, line-of-sight wireless or satellite, with the local site network then designed around your offices, cabins, CCTV and other connected systems.
What is the best internet option for a construction site?
The best option depends on your site location, available coverage, required speeds, resilience needs and how the connection will be used. Bonded 4G/5G is often the quickest option to deploy, while line-of-sight wireless can suit sites with a clear path to a nearby connection point. For more remote locations, Low Earth Orbit satellite can provide an alternative where terrestrial options are limited. We assess the site first and recommend the most practical setup for the project.
Will construction site WiFi work across multiple cabins or large compounds?
Yes. Site-wide coverage is achieved by deploying additional access points, antennas or wireless links across the development. This ensures reliable connectivity across site offices, welfare cabins and operational areas, even on larger or more complex sites.
Is 4G or 5G enough for a construction site?
Often, yes, but it depends on the site coverage, number of users and what the connection needs to support. A basic 4G or 5G router may be sufficient for a small requirement, while busier sites running CCTV, video calls, cloud platforms and large file transfers may need bonded connections, external antennas or additional resilience. We assess available networks and expected usage before recommending the setup.
How much does construction site internet cost?
Costs vary depending on site size, location, the technology required and how the connection will be used. Rather than offering fixed pricing, we provide free site assessments and recommend the most efficient setup for your project so you are not paying for unnecessary equipment or data.
