Ashton-under-Lyne, North West • England
Tameside's market town of Ashton-under-Lyne sits at the foot of the Pennines where the M60 meets the M67, six or seven miles east of Manchester city centre in the M postcode area of North West England. It's one of Greater Manchester's oldest towns, with a working street market and terraces built for the cotton trade. Crews on jobs across Tameside, Manchester and the Peak fringe base with KrewBase in whole serviced houses, bills, Wi-Fi and parking in, one monthly invoice.
Ashton's housing tells its story: long stone terraces from the mill boom, 1900s semis around the parks, and interwar estates towards Stalybridge and Dukinfield. Terraced streets mean parking takes checking — some have rear yards, some need permits, some are hopeless for a transit. That's the first thing we filter for. We look for houses with an extra bedroom for stores, a second bathroom or a good-sized one, and a kitchen that can feed a crew without a queue.
The work here is the full Greater Manchester mix: construction and housing regeneration across Tameside and east Manchester, rail and tram maintenance, utility and grid jobs, and a deep bench of logistics and manufacturing employment around the motorway box. Healthcare support runs into Manchester's hospitals, and retail and leisure fit-outs keep smaller crews busy. Sites change fast, which suits a flexible crew house far better than a fixed hotel booking.
The M60 junction at Ashton links the whole ring road in minutes, the M67 heads east towards the Peak District and Glossop, and the interchange sits right on the town's edge. Manchester city centre is about seven miles west, Oldham four north, Stockport eight south-west. Ashton station runs into Manchester Victoria for anyone travelling light. We shortlist by measured drive time at your shift hours, and we're honest about which streets are painless at 7am and which aren't.
You let the whole property — kitchen, lounge, every bedroom. Bills, council tax, water and broadband go in our name; Wi-Fi is tested before check-in; parking is checked against the vehicles you send. Five or more crew means two bathrooms as standard. A weekly clean and fresh linen are included, and maintenance is our job from day one. Your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card. No booking fees, no minimum crew size, 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.
Two working hours is standard. Send the site postcode, headcount, dates and vehicles, and we'll return vetted whole houses across Ashton and Tameside, ranked by drive time. Tameside has deep housing stock, so even short-notice starts are usually coverable — just flag the start date up front.
It depends on the street, so we check every house against your vehicles before it reaches the shortlist. End terraces, corner plots and houses with rear yards or drives are what we look for — and we'll say plainly if a street needs a permit or just won't work.
Ashton itself, Stalybridge, Dukinfield, Droylsden, Audenshaw and Mossley across Tameside, plus Oldham next door and jobs into Manchester. Shortlists are ranked by real drive time at your shift hours, which matters when the M60 is in one of its moods.
Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are all in our name and in the rent. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, and anything that fails afterwards comes to us. Your crew reports a fault once and we arrange the fix — no receipts, no petty cash, no hassle.
Yes. We brief crews on being good neighbours, time the weekly clean around sleep patterns, and make sure check-in works whatever the shift. Late arrivals are routine around Manchester's 24-hour economy, and our key arrangements are built for exactly that.
Yes — one invoice a month covering rent, bills, Wi-Fi, cleaning and linen, paid by card, no booking fees. A single named contact deals with all admin, so your accounts team gets one tidy document instead of a trail of site receipts to reconcile.
