hup! walls for modular house extensions
hup! walls are precision engineered to form the structural core of a modular house extension, combining strength, insulation and a lightweight design in one high-performance system. Manufactured under controlled factory conditions, each panel is designed to fit accurately on site, helping Rex deliver a faster, cleaner build with consistent quality.Strong, lightweight and built for performance
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 in hup! walls and roofs mean that your new hup! extension can be built up to five times faster than a traditional build. Built in any weather a small extension could be built and watertight in 2-3 days without any weather or scheduling delays.
Light and slim
Because hup! walls are lightweight, they can often be installed on an existing suitable base, where heavier traditional brickwork may require new foundations. Their lighter construction also makes the panels easier for installation teams to handle, helping to speed up the build.
hup! walls are also slimmer than traditional brick-built walls, creating around 10–15% more usable internal floor space within the same external footprint.
Energy Efficient
hup! walls are 6% more energy efficient than a fully Building Regulation compliant wall thanks to the large proportion of super-insulation in the panels.
How your extension type affects the price
What drives modular extension cost
Rex manages design, planning and build as one team, so several trade handovers disappear from the schedule entirely, a real factor in modular extension cost. hup! walls and roofs are manufactured off site to a fixed specification, so your quote holds once the build starts, rather than creeping upward the way a traditional extension often does once foundations are opened up.
A lifespan backed by independent testing, not just our word
The patented Ultrapanel system carries a minimum 60-year life expectancy, awarded by the British Board of Agrément (BBA) following independent testing. That's not a figure we've come up with ourselves, it's been checked.
