Basildon

Situated in the county of Essex, just 30 miles out of London, Basildon was created in 1949 as one of eight ‘New Towns’ designed and built to ease the pressure of London’s housing wait list after the second World War.

In a bid to raise popularity of the ‘New Town’ the government offered grants to local companies in exchange for their businesses to be set up in Basildon. Amongst the companies which took up these grant were Carreras Tobacco (opened 1959, Ford Motors (opened 1964), Yardley of London (opened 1966) and Gordons Gin (opened 1984).

To this day it still has a heavily developed industrial base, known for its successful businessmen and they’re not short of professional tradesman either!

From painters in Billericay to plasterers in Wickford and carpet cleaners in Shotgate, you’ll find the right local tradesmen in our Basildon directory.

We expect wet weather in the UK, but don't tolerate damp in your home or business. Unless you want your paint to peel, your wood or walls to rot and become a structural headache, it's best to safeguard yourself with damp proofing.

Unsightly rising damp, penetrating damp and condensation, on internal walls and ground level basements, are common thorns in homeowners' sides - especially for older properties during the winter months. It's heightened by cold weather and poor ventilation. Worst case, it'll cause permanent damage to plaster and paint finishes, or even affect your immune system and lungs.
