Built for Folkestone and South Kent trade businesses
Folkestone is one of Kent's most rapidly transforming towns — a Channel port town undergoing significant regeneration, with the Creative Quarter, the Triennial arts festival and substantial inward migration from London driving a renovation boom across the town's Victorian and Edwardian housing stock. The HS1 Eurostar connection makes Folkestone increasingly attractive to London professionals, and the broader catchment extends through Hythe, Hawkinge, New Romney, Ashford and the Romney Marsh villages. Trade businesses covering CT postcodes in the Folkestone area serve a growing and diverse market. Trade2Base gives Folkestone tradespeople the tools to win more jobs and grow profitably across South Kent.
