Hevingham, East of England • England
Hevingham is a Broadland village in Norfolk, in the East of England, England, in the NR postcode area, a few miles north of Aylsham on the road towards Cromer. It's quiet, rural and short on rental stock — so crews on contracts around north Norfolk stay in the villages and small towns nearby. KrewBase arranges whole serviced houses around Hevingham, bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested, parking checked, all rolled into one monthly invoice.
Hevingham itself is a small cluster of period and newer homes, so crew properties come from the surrounding villages — Marsham, Buxton, Erpingham — and from Aylsham and the northern edge of Norwich when bigger stock is needed. What north Norfolk villages offer crews is space: detached and semi-detached houses with drives, garages and gardens, where a crew of six and their vans don't have to apologise for existing, and where the week's shopping, the toolboxes and the wet gear all have somewhere to go.
Every place is inspected before it reaches you. We test broadband in the bedrooms rather than trusting the listing's speed claim, measure parking against your vehicle list including trailers, and only shortlist houses with two bathrooms when the crew is five or more. A house has to work at 6am on a cold morning, not just in the photographs. The garage gets checked too — secure kit storage matters more than kerb appeal.
Contracts around here tend to follow the roads and the seasons: highways, drainage and utilities maintenance along the A140 and A149 corridors, grid and telecoms work through the farmland, housing development in the market towns, and a steady stream of agricultural building and maintenance as farms modernise. Norwich generates its own pull — healthcare, facilities and commercial work — for crews happy with a slightly longer drive, and the coast brings seasonal infrastructure and marine work of its own.
We keep it generic and match by geography: send the site location and we shortlist around it by real drive time, whatever sector the job sits in. No invented clients, no claimed projects, no statistics pulled from thin air — just houses matched to where your crew actually clocks in. Seasonal contracts move with the year, and the base should move with them.
The A140 passes a couple of miles west, running south to Norwich in around 20 minutes and north to Cromer in about the same. The A149 hugs the coast through Aylsham to the Broads villages and on towards Great Yarmouth, while local lanes link Hevingham to Marsham, Buxton and the market towns. Rural Norfolk driving means tractors, dawdling caravans and honest journey times — so we shortlist by measured drive time at your crew's actual start hour, school runs and market days included.
If the contract moves — from the Norwich fringe to the coast, say — we re-shortlist around the new site rather than leaving the commute to chance. The right house follows the work; your crew shouldn't be paying the difference in diesel and lost sleep because the base never moved. Night crews get the same journey check run at their hours, not office hours, and coastal summer traffic is factored in honestly.
You get the entire property for the job's duration — every bedroom, the kitchen, the garden, the drive. All bills — gas, electric, water, council tax, broadband — sit in our name, Wi-Fi is speed-tested in the bedrooms before check-in, and parking is verified against the vehicles you run. Five or more crew means two bathrooms as standard, and a weekly clean with fresh linen keeps standards up through muddy contracts, whether the job runs three weeks or nine months.
Maintenance goes straight to us, 24/7, and never to your site manager. One monthly invoice covers rent, bills, cleaning and linen, paid by card for account customers, with no booking fees and no minimum crew or stay. Small crews and short contracts get the identical service to long ones — the job dictates the booking, not the other way round.
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 for a shortlist during the working day, once we have the site, headcount and dates. Rural Norfolk supply is patchier than a city, so we send a short list of inspected, genuinely available properties — not a spreadsheet of guesses. If nothing within a sensible drive works, we'll say so plainly and suggest the nearest base that does rather than wasting your foreman's week.
Yes. Hevingham, Marsham, Buxton, Erpingham, Aylsham and out towards Coltishall and the northern Norwich fringe. We shortlist by drive time from your site, so coastal jobs and city jobs are handled the same way — measured at the hour your crew travels, quoted honestly, and re-based if the contract moves rather than left to drift into a two-hour round trip by default.
It varies enormously, which is exactly why we test every property in the bedrooms before check-in and only promise what's proven. If your crew needs solid bandwidth for site uploads, video calls or evening admin, tell us at enquiry and we'll filter the shortlist accordingly — and where a property can't deliver, we'll say so instead of letting your crew discover it on night one.
Yes — that's the standard shape of every booking. One invoice per property covering rent, bills, cleaning and linen, paid by card for account customers, with no booking fees. Multi-house contracts get one consolidated monthly invoice, and the figure we quote is the figure finance receives, with no drip of extras appearing mid-contract.
Genuinely. Gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband all sit in our name and inside your single monthly figure. Your crew will never see a utility bill, take a meter reading or speak to a supplier — that's the entire point of the arrangement, and it stays true whether the stay is three weeks or three quarters.
That's fine. There's no minimum stay — a two-week shutdown or a month-long contract is as welcome as a six-month job, and there's no minimum crew size either. Tell us the dates and we quote accordingly, with extensions usually possible if the work runs over, and the same weekly clean and maintenance cover from day one regardless of how short the booking is.
