Built for Basildon and South Essex trade businesses
Basildon is one of Essex's largest towns — a major post-war new town with a large and diverse population, high job volumes across gas, plumbing, electrical and building trades, and a catchment that extends through Pitsea, Laindon, Billericay, Wickford, Thurrock and into Brentwood and the wider South Essex corridor. The town has a mix of new town housing estates, larger Billericay semi-detached stock, new build developments and a substantial private rental sector.
