Rochester, South East • England
Rochester is one of the Medway towns in Kent, in the ME postcode area of South East England, where the M2 and A2 run between London and the Kent coast, with Chatham, Gillingham and Strood as neighbours. KrewBase lets whole serviced houses and flats here for contractor crews — bills, Wi-Fi and parking all in, one monthly invoice to your office — a practical base with London barely an hour up the road.
Rochester and the Medway towns are full of solid housing — Victorian terraces climbing towards the castle and cathedral, long streets of interwar semis through Chatham and Gillingham, and newer estates towards Strood and the Hoo Peninsula. For crews we favour the semis and post-war streets: off-road parking for vans, decent-sized kitchens, and quick access to the M2 and A2. Everything we offer is inspected in person before check-in.
The Medway towns keep contractors busy year-round — construction and housing development across Kent, port and logistics work around the Thames, rail and infrastructure jobs, NHS and healthcare contracts in the towns' hospitals and facilities, and manufacturing across the wider north Kent corridor. Crews working across Kent and into London often base here for the motorways. Give us the site and dates; we will sort the rest.
The M2 runs past the north of town towards the M25 for London, while the A2 follows the old Roman route through Rochester towards Dartford and the capital. Chatham, Gillingham and Strood are minutes away, and the high-speed rail from Rochester station reaches London in around forty minutes. For sites along the coast or down into Kent we shortlist houses by measured drive time, so the commute holds up in real traffic.
Your crew takes the whole house or flat with gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband in our name. Wi-Fi is tested before anyone moves in, parking is checked against the actual vehicles, and properties sleeping five or more come with two bathrooms. A weekly clean with fresh linen keeps the place decent, maintenance calls come to us rather than your lads, and your office receives one monthly invoice, paid by card. No booking fees, no per-head pricing.
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.
Most Rochester enquiries get a shortlist within about two hours. Send the site postcode, crew size and start date and we will come back with whole houses across Rochester and the Medway towns that are genuinely available, each already checked for van parking, working Wi-Fi and enough bathrooms for the headcount. Urgent job? Tell us and we will push it through.
Yes — Rochester, Chatham, Gillingham, Strood, Rainham and the Hoo Peninsula are all in scope, plus Gravesend, Maidstone and Sittingbourne when the site sits further out. Tell us where the crew reports each morning and we will shortlist by real drive time rather than sticking to one town's boundary.
Yes — it is checked before we offer anything. The interwar semis and post-war estates through Rochester, Chatham and Gillingham usually have driveways or off-road space for two or three vans; some Victorian terraces closer to the centre are tighter, so those are filtered carefully. Parking is confirmed against your actual vehicles before check-in.
They are. Gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband all stay in our name and are covered by the rent, so your crew pays one figure and your office gets one monthly invoice. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, and any supplier problems are ours to chase — your crew comes home to a warm house with working internet after the shift.
Yes — direct company invoicing is the standard arrangement. We open an account, the crew checks in, and we send one monthly invoice covering rent, bills, cleaning and linen paid by card. No booking fees and no per-person supplements, which keeps your accounts team's month-end simple.
Yes — there is no minimum crew size and no minimum stay. A two-person job for a couple of weeks books the same way as a full gang for six months, and the whole-property setup means a small crew is never sharing with strangers. Rates reflect the property rather than the headcount, so smaller teams are not priced out.
