Fraserburgh, Scotland • Scotland
Fraserburgh is a working fishing port on the north-east corner of Aberdeenshire, Scotland, postcode area AB, looking out over the Moray Firth. The A98 links it along the coast and the A90 sits a short drive south. Crews posted to Buchan — construction, energy work, food processing and the harbour itself — stay in whole serviced houses arranged by KrewBase, with bills, Wi-Fi and parking included and one monthly invoice to the company. From two people to a full squad, the setup is the same: a proper house near site.
Fraserburgh — the Broch to anyone local — is a town of stone-built terraces and semis, with post-war council estates and newer developments around the edges. The inland estates tend to suit crews best: drives that take vans, three bedrooms instead of two, neighbours who don't mind early starts. The older centre works for smaller teams on short jobs. KrewBase only shortlists houses we'd put tradesmen in: checked parking, a real kitchen, heating that copes with a north-east winter, and no holiday-let compromises.
The harbour and the food-processing supply chain around it keep a steady flow of trades and logistics crews in town. Beyond that, Buchan sees housing development on the town's edges, energy and grid work across the wider north-east, and maintenance of the fish-processing and harbour infrastructure. NHS and care roles cover the dispersed communities up the coast. Crews working across Aberdeenshire often base here because the housing is honest and the drive to coastal sites is short.
The A98 runs west along the coast towards Banff and east towards Peterhead, while the A90 — the main Aberdeen to Fraserburgh route — is reached a few miles south. Aberdeen itself is roughly 40 miles south and is the nearest city for supplies and crew changes. Fraserburgh has no railway, so crews travel by van, and most addresses in town are minutes from the main routes. If your site is out along the coast or up in the Buchan countryside, send the pin and we'll shortlist by drive time, not guesswork.
The price we quote is the price on the invoice: rent, council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband, all in KrewBase's name. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, parking is checked against your actual vehicles, and properties for five or more come with two bathrooms. Weekly cleaning and linen are included, maintenance comes to us, and you pay one monthly invoice, paid by card. No booking fees, no minimum crew or stay. Your crew walks in with a bag; everything else is already working.
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.
Within two hours during working hours once we have crew size and site location. The Broch has reasonable stock and we'll also check Peterhead and the A98 villages if staying flexible widens the options for your dates. If your dates are flexible, say so — it usually widens the list.
Yes. We check each shortlisted property against the vehicles your crew runs. In a town where half the streetscape is older terraces, that check matters — we only forward houses where the vans actually fit, and we say so on the shortlist.
That's the standard setup. One monthly invoice, paid by card covering rent and every bill, with no booking fees and no per-person extras. Your accounts team processes a single document and the crew gets on with the job. Utility bills never reach your crew or your inbox.
We shortlist by drive time from your site, so that includes Peterhead along the coast, the A98 villages and inland Buchan. Give us the site pin and we'll work out where the sensible radius sits, rather than limiting ourselves to the town boundary.
Yes — gas, electric, council tax, water and broadband are all in our name and inside the monthly figure. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in so your crew can run job sheets and calls home without any fuss on day one.
No minimum. Two people on a short job get the same bills-in setup, the same weekly clean and the same single monthly invoice as a full squad on a long posting. The size of the crew changes nothing about how it works.
