Blackwater and Hawley, South East • England
Blackwater and Hawley sit on the Hampshire-Surrey border in the GU postcode area, a short run from Camberley and Farnborough along the A30. KrewBase places contractor crews in whole serviced houses and flats here - bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, parking checked against your actual vehicles, and one monthly invoice for the office. Whether it's a two-person job or a full crew, you get a proper house rather than a hotel corridor.
The area grew up around the Army's Hawley Lake and the old barracks, so the housing stock is mostly solid post-war semis, terraces and ex-council estates around Blackwater, with some newer estates towards Hawley. Semis with driveways and gardens suit crews best - room for vans, room to dry gear. We filter for off-street parking, a second bathroom where five or more are booked in, and landlords who understand shift patterns.
This corner of north-east Hampshire sits inside the commuter belt but keeps a working economy of its own. Crews come through for construction and housing development around Camberley and Farnborough, depot and logistics work along the M3 corridor, and maintenance contracts on the business parks and MoD sites dotted between Aldershot and Farnborough. Healthcare staff on regional NHS placements also use houses here because it's an easy drive to hospitals in Frimley, Farnham and Guildford.
The A30 runs straight through to Camberley and Farnborough, and the M3 at Junction 4a is minutes away, putting Basingstoke one way and the M25 the other. Farnborough's mainline station has direct trains to London Waterloo, and Frimley and Camberley are a ten-minute drive for supplies. When we're shortlisting houses we work from your site's postcode and drive time, so the commute is checked before anyone unpacks a bag.
You take the whole property - house or flat - not a room each in a shared let. Every bill goes in KrewBase's name: council tax, gas, electric, water, broadband. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is measured against your actual vehicles, and for five or more we insist on two bathrooms. A weekly clean and fresh linen are part of the deal, and maintenance calls come to us, not your site manager. The office gets one monthly invoice, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum crew size or stay - two people for a fortnight is as welcome as twenty for six months.
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.
Send us the site postcode, crew size and any vehicle list, and we turn around a shortlist within two hours during working hours. We hold details of houses that suit crews across north-east Hampshire, so you're not waiting on a fresh search each time - and we confirm availability before sending anything over.
Camberley, Farnborough, Frimley, Yateley, Sandhurst and Fleet are all within our usual patch, and we can look further towards Guildford or Basingstoke if the job needs it. Tell us the site location and we check drive times from each house before suggesting anywhere, so nobody ends up commuting the wrong way down the A30.
Yes. Every property we send is checked against the vehicles you're bringing - vans included. The post-war semis and estates around Blackwater and Hawley tend to have drives or garages, so parking is rarely a problem here, but we confirm the spaces in writing before you book so there are no surprises on day one.
All of them - council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband go in our name, included in the monthly rate. We test the Wi-Fi speed before check-in and deal with any outage directly with the supplier, so your crew isn't chasing providers after a night shift or losing a day's paperwork to a dead router.
That's exactly how it works. You get one monthly invoice covering rent, bills, cleaning and linen, paid by card with no booking fees. It keeps the site office out of receipt-chasing and makes the accommodation cost simple to code to the job, whatever your accounting setup looks like.
We do. Anything that breaks, leaks or stops working goes to KrewBase's maintenance line, and we coordinate access with your crew at times that suit the shift pattern. Your site manager shouldn't be getting calls about boilers while trying to run a job, and your crew shouldn't be fixing a landlord's problems for free.
