Greenwich, London • England
Greenwich, in the SE postcode area, is the Thames-side heart of south-east London — home to the historic town centre, the O2 across the river and rail and DLR links into Canary Wharf and the City. KrewBase places work crews in whole serviced houses and flats here, bills in our name — council tax, energy, water and Wi-Fi — with parking matched to your vehicles, so the crew walks in ready and your company settles it all through one monthly invoice.
Greenwich borough's stock runs from Georgian and Victorian terraces around the historic centre to 1930s semis in Eltham and Kidbrooke and newer riverside apartments near the peninsula. For crews, the terraces and semis away from the tourist core — toward Westcombe Park, Charlton and the quieter side streets — offer the best mix of bedrooms, gardens and parking without the visitor congestion.
Every shortlist passes the same filter: off-street parking or permits matched to your actual vehicles, two bathrooms for crews of five or more, room to dry and store work gear, and a route to site that doesn't cross the worst of the peninsula traffic. Anything short stays off the list. We know the local agents well, and those relationships put the better houses in our hands early.
The Greenwich peninsula and the wider riverside have seen sustained development and infrastructure work for years, and the borough's housing stock keeps refurbishment and construction crews busy across its neighbourhoods. Crews on rail, utilities and public-realm contracts across south-east London, Kent and the Thames crossings frequently base themselves here. It isn't glamorous work, but it all comes down to the same thing: beds near site.
We don't name projects or promise a house beside a specific site. Give us your site locations and shift starts and we'll source whole properties that cut the commute, held for the length of the job and flexible when the programme moves — as programmes do. Contracts hand over to each other almost weekly, with crews following the work. It's steady, unglamorous work that keeps beds filled year-round.
Greenwich and Maze Hill stations run Southeastern services into London Bridge and Cannon Street, the DLR from Cutty Sark and Greenwich reaches Canary Wharf and the City, and the A206 along the river connects to the A2, the Blackwall Tunnel and the South Circular. For sites toward Kent or Essex, the Thames crossings and the M25 are within easy reach.
Peninsula traffic can stack up at rush hour, so we shortlist by real drive time rather than distance on the map. A house that's ten minutes from site in honest traffic beats one that's prettier and forty minutes away — that trade-off is built into every list we send. The site won't move its start time for the M25, and our shortlisting reflects that.
The whole property, for the whole crew — never a room count in someone else's building. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband stay in our name, Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is checked against your vehicles, and crews of five or more get two bathrooms as standard. A weekly clean and fresh linen keep the place decent. There are no deposit battles and nothing unexpected appears halfway through.
Maintenance comes straight to KrewBase. Your company receives one monthly invoice, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum crew size or stay. The let is fitted to the job — however many people, for however long the work actually runs. Accounts will sign this off without an argument. It's all arranged by the time the first key changes hands.
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 the site address, headcount and dates and we'll return a vetted shortlist of whole properties within about two hours in working hours. Houses with parking in Greenwich move fast, so once you approve we secure it and confirm everything in writing the same day.
Yes — Charlton, Westcombe Park, Blackheath, Kidbrooke and Eltham are all regular territory within the borough, and we're equally happy sourcing near your site wherever it sits in south-east London or Kent. Every shortlist is built on drive time from site.
We verify it before you commit, which is better than a guarantee made blind. Only properties with driveways, bays or permits sized for your actual vehicles make the shortlist, and the parking details are sent with each option for your approval.
Yes — council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband all sit in our name. The crew sets nothing up; we speed-test the Wi-Fi before check-in and fix it if it falls short during the stay. Your company receives one monthly invoice covering the lot paid by card.
For stays beyond a week or two, the house wins on cost per head and on living standards — a kitchen, living room, parking and no queues. Hotels bill per room and pile on extras. With KrewBase everything lands on one monthly invoice and the crew has a proper base between shifts.
KrewBase does. Anything that breaks, leaks or stops working comes to us — the crew reports it and we coordinate the fix with the host. It's covered within the one monthly invoice, so there are no surprise charges for your company mid-contract.
