Arundel, South East • England
Arundel sits on the River Arun in West Sussex — castle town, cathedral, and a busy A27 running past its northern edge. The BN postcode area here puts crews between Littlehampton a couple of miles south and Chichester eight miles west, with Brighton reachable along the coast. KrewBase houses working crews in whole serviced properties around Arundel: bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, parking sorted for vans, and one monthly invoice for your accounts team.
Arundel itself is a small historic town — period townhouses, cottages and a tight centre where parking is at a premium — but the housing opens out quickly. Over the river and along the road towards Littlehampton you'll find 1930s semis, post-war estates and newer developments with driveways, garages and gardens, and the same applies in Ford and along the A259. For crews we shortlist the outlying streets: room for a van off the road, space to dry gear, and two bathrooms where the crew numbers call for it.
The work here mixes town maintenance with coastal industry: housing repairs and refurbishment across the Arun district, school and healthcare facilities jobs, groundworks and civils along the A27 corridor, and the seasonal round of work that keeps a tourist town functioning. Crews also base in Arundel for jobs across West Sussex generally — from Chichester to Worthing — because the coast road and the A27 make the whole strip commutable. Whatever the job, they need somewhere quiet at night and functional at dawn.
The A27 is the spine of this part of West Sussex, running past Arundel east towards Worthing and Brighton and west to Chichester and the M27 at Portsmouth. The A29 comes up from Bognor Regis to meet it just north of town. Arundel station, on the West Coastway line, has direct trains towards Brighton, Portsmouth and London Victoria via Gatwick — handy for crews flying in or meeting head office.
When we shortlist, we work from your site postcode and check drive times at shift-change hours. Cross-country routes around here can be slow, and a house that looks close on the map can be the wrong side of a narrow bridge or a level crossing that shuts at the wrong moment. Ford and the A259 villages usually beat the historic centre for a coast commute, and the shortlist reflects that rather than what's prettiest — the crew gets the house that moves in the morning, not the postcard.
We let the whole house or flat in our name for the length of the job. Council tax, gas, electric, water, broadband and the TV licence all stay with us — no utility admin landing on your crew or your accounts department. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is checked against the actual vehicles, and crews of five or more get two bathrooms. A weekly clean with fresh linen keeps the place liveable, and maintenance is our problem — one call and it's sorted. One monthly invoice covers everything, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum stay.
Send us the requirement — town, dates, headcount, vehicles and any shift pattern we should know about. We come back within 2 hours with a shortlist from property we already hold, not a search we have just started. You pick, we confirm, the crew moves in, and we stay on it for the length of the job. One monthly invoice, card payment for limited companies, no booking fees.
Yes. Arundel itself is small and parking is tight in the historic centre, so crew houses tend to be in Ford, along the Littlehampton road, and in the villages towards Amberley and Poling. If your site postcode points the other way, we'll shortlist towards Chichester instead — the circle is drawn by drive time, not by the town sign.
Around two hours from your enquiry. Send the site postcode, headcount, dates and vehicles, and we'll send whole properties that fit the commute — drive time checked at the hours your crew will actually travel. Once chosen, the house is normally ready within a few working days, with Wi-Fi already tested and working.
Yes — it's one of the filters we apply before a property reaches your shortlist. You tell us the vans, pickups or trailers you're running and we check the driveway against them. Around Arundel that usually means the estates and newer roads rather than the tight lanes below the castle, where off-street space is rare.
All of them: council tax, gas, electric, water, broadband and the TV licence stay in KrewBase's name and inside your one monthly invoice. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before anyone moves in, and the router details are waiting at the house — so a crew arriving after a late shift gets online that night, not after a provider's installation queue.
Yes, that's the standard setup. Your accounts team gets one monthly invoice — rent, all bills, cleaning, linen — paid by card, with no booking fees or service charges. There's no deposit chase and no expense claims coming back from the crew at month end. One supplier, one payment run.
No. We've housed pairs of engineers for a few weeks and full site teams for the best part of a year from this area, and the arrangement is identical: whole property, bills in, weekly clean, one monthly invoice. Tell us what the job needs and we'll quote against actual properties, not tiers.
