Cobham, South East • England
Cobham is a well-heeled Surrey village in England — KT postcodes between the A3 and the River Mole, a short drive from the M25 at Junction 10, with Leatherhead and Esher its nearest neighbours. KrewBase puts contractor crews working across this stretch of the commuter belt into whole serviced houses and flats: bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, parking sorted for the vans, and one monthly invoice to your office.
Surrey's stock is pricey, but crews don't need glamour — they need space, parking and a short run to site. Around Cobham that means the older semis and terraces nearer the village centre for small crews, and the bigger detached houses on the roads toward Stoke d'Abernon and the estates around neighbouring Leatherhead and West Byfleet for teams with multiple vans. We lean on properties with drives, garages and a garden that can take a week's worth of boots without complaint.
Every shortlist passes our filters: off-road parking for your real vehicles, a usable kitchen-diner the crew can eat in together, and two bathrooms for crews of five or more. Broadband is speed-tested, heating and showers are checked properly, and the parking layout is confirmed against your vans before booking — because a pretty house that can't fit the vehicles is no use to anyone on a working contract.
Crews basing around Cobham are usually working across the M25 belt: construction and housing development in the boroughs along the A3 corridor, utilities and grid work threaded through Surrey, logistics and warehouse contracts near the motorway junctions, and ongoing upgrades to the region's roads and rail. Healthcare placements across the county use Cobham as a comfortable base between shifts at the towns within reach.
When the work spreads across multiple sites from Guildford to Kingston, one fixed crew house is simply easier to run than a stack of hotel bookings that shift every few days and reprice every time the job moves. The crew keeps a settled base with a kitchen, a washing machine and guaranteed parking, and your accounts team reconciles one predictable monthly line for the whole team.
The A3 runs straight past the village — south to Guildford and Portsmouth, north to the M25 at Junction 10, which then connects the whole motorway box. The M3 isn't far via Esher and the A245 corridor, and Cobham & Stoke d'Abernon station gives a rail option into London Waterloo. Heathrow and Gatwick are both within a sensible drive for fly-in crews or staff swapping over mid-contract.
Tell us the site postcode and we shortlist by real drive time at shift-start hours, matched to your vehicle list — vetted options back within two hours, each priced as one monthly rate covering rent and every bill in our name. That gives you time to book, brief the crew and sort keys before the first shift, wherever around Cobham the site happens to be.
The crew gets the whole property — no other guests anywhere in the building, no shared corridors. Bills go in our name: council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband, with Wi-Fi speed-tested before check-in and parking confirmed against the vans arriving on day one. The crew gets proper showers, a full kitchen and somewhere to dry kit — not a budget room with a kettle and a trouser press.
A weekly clean and fresh linen are included as standard, and every maintenance call — boiler, appliances, locks, the usual — lands with us rather than the crew or your site manager. One monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees, no minimum crew or stay: two for a fortnight is as welcome here as twenty for six months, with exactly the same bills-in, one-invoice setup.
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 hours is standard once we have the site postcode, crew size and start date. We check drive time across the KT area at morning shift-start, then send vetted whole houses or flats with photos, parking detail and a single monthly rate for each.
Yes — Stoke d'Abernon, Leatherhead, Esher, West Byfleet and the surrounding KT postcodes are all in scope. Houses are picked by drive time to your site, so the crew gets the shortest practical run whatever village the property sits in.
Yes, and it's checked against your list. Surrey's prettier lanes can be tight, so we only shortlist properties where the vans and pickups genuinely fit off-road — drives and garages, not street luck. If it won't fit, it isn't sent.
One monthly invoice, paid by card covers rent and every bill in our name — council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband. No booking fees, nothing for the crew to set up, and a single line for your accounts team to process at the end of each month.
Usually, yes — tell us before the end date and we'll extend, keeping the same Cobham house if it's free. Because everything sits on one monthly invoice, an extension is a quick call rather than a renegotiation with new paperwork.
Just personal kit — bedding, towels and a fully working kitchen are already there, and Wi-Fi is connected and tested before arrival. We meet the crew or arrange key collection around the rota, including late arrivals, and parking is sorted before the first van pulls onto the drive.
