Burntwood, West Midlands • England
Burntwood clusters around the old mining villages of Chasetown and Chase Terrace in Staffordshire, England, in the WS postcode area, on the edge of Cannock Chase a few miles from Lichfield. KrewBase sources whole serviced houses and flats here for working crews: bills, Wi-Fi and parking in, and one monthly invoice to your company. Whether the contract is weeks or the best part of a year, your crew gets a proper house near site instead of hotel rooms scattered across the district.
Burntwood is largely post-war housing built for the coalfield: brick semis and terraces across Chasetown, Chase Terrace and Boney Hay, with some newer estates filling the gaps between. The houses are practical and honest - good-sized rooms, gardens, and more off-street parking than you would find closer to Birmingham. We shortlist with the vehicles and the rota in mind: parking that genuinely fits the vans, heating and hot water for early shifts, and kitchens that can feed a crew twice a day.
Every house is walked through, in person or on video, before it reaches your shortlist. We check the boiler's age, the broadband speed, the state of the washing machine and the parking measurements - the details that decide whether a house works for six people for three months or falls apart in week two. If a property passes all of that, it is one we are happy to put our name on for the length of your contract.
Crews based in Burntwood work across Lichfield district and the surrounding Staffordshire patch: construction and housing development, logistics along the A5 and M6 Toll corridors, manufacturing, and the utility and infrastructure jobs that run through this part of the region. Crews working across Cannock, Lichfield or towards Walsall find it a practical middle point, and the Chase on the doorstep means the odd early-morning commute is at least a scenic one.
Burntwood has no station of its own, so this is driving territory: the A5190 and A5 link towards Lichfield, about four miles away, Cannock around five and Walsall nine, with the M6 Toll close for longer runs. Lichfield's stations cover rail towards Birmingham and Derby. We shortlist by real drive time from your site postcode, so whether the job is in Burntwood itself or over towards the motorway corridor, the crew's commute stays sensible.
Your crew takes the whole property with all bills in our name: council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is confirmed against the vehicles arriving, crews of five or more get two bathrooms, and a weekly clean with fresh linen runs through the stay. Maintenance is ours to deal with - the crew messages us and we sort it, whatever has failed.
Your company receives one monthly invoice, paid by card. There are no booking fees, no per-head deposits, and no minimum stay - you book the house for the size and length of the job, and if the job grows, we adjust the arrangement rather than forcing a move. Extensions work the same way: tell us the programme has slipped and we will confirm with the property before you have to ask twice.
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.
Usually within two hours of a quote request. Send the site postcode, crew size, dates and vehicle count, and we shortlist whole houses across Burntwood and the surrounding area with drive times and parking photos. You pick, we book, and the crew checks in with everything already on.
Chasetown, Chase Terrace, Boney Hay and the newer estates around them, plus we reach towards Lichfield, Cannock and Brownhills when a job needs it. If your site sits elsewhere in the district, send the postcode - the site decides where we look, not a map line.
Generally easier than in the bigger towns, but we still check every property properly. Tell us how many vehicles you run and their sizes, and we only shortlist houses with driveways or off-street space that fits them. A house that cannot park your fleet never reaches your shortlist.
Always. Your company gets one monthly invoice covering rent and all bills paid by card, paid by BACS. Crew members never pay anything, hand over cards or file expenses for the house - the whole arrangement sits between KrewBase and your accounts team.
Four things: the site postcode, the number of crew, the dates or an estimate, and how many vehicles need parking. With those we turn a shortlist around in about two hours and firm pricing the same day, wherever in the district the site turns out to be.
We do, end to end. The crew contacts KrewBase directly, we arrange our own contractors, and we update you if anything affects the stay. Heating, hot water and locks are treated as urgent, and no repair cost ever appears on your invoice at the end of the month.
