Construction type - Laing Easiform houses were introduced by the John Laing construction company in 1919 as a practical response to the housing shortages during and after the wars. These homes were popular with councils for their efficient and cost-effective construction, enabling the rapid development of large housing estates. Built over a span of 40-50 years in the 20th century, tens of thousands of Laing Easiform homes were constructed across the UK. Designed to match traditional brick-built homes' lifespans, they are regarded as durable and long-lasting. Unlike many non-traditional construction methods, Laing Easiform homes were not classified as defective under the Housing Act 1985. As a result, they are generally considered mortgageable by major lenders, making them an exception in the category of non-traditional housing.
