Areas we cover

Where we work: Aylesford, Maidstone, Kent and London

We work from Aylesford in Kent, which puts Maidstone, Medway and most of the county inside a short drive, and we cover the wider South East and London. If you are not sure whether you are in range, ring and ask. We would rather say so than quote for a job we could not get back to for a service visit.

The towns

What changes from one town to the next

The system a property needs is decided by the property, not the postcode. But the housing stock genuinely does change across Kent, and it changes the job. This is what we find in each area.

Aylesford

Our base, and a village where the housing runs from Kentish ragstone period property and listed buildings around the High Street to the modern estates at Larkfield. The older stock is the interesting part of the job: solid walls that stop wireless signal dead, and a conservation area where what you fix to a frontage matters.

Maidstone

Fifteen minutes from us and the closest large town. A genuine mix, from terraces near the centre to rural properties out towards the villages and commercial units on the industrial estates, which is why two Maidstone jobs a mile apart can need completely different systems.

Medway

Chatham and Gillingham are largely Victorian and Edwardian terraces, Rochester has a Georgian and Victorian historic centre, and Strood and the edges of all four towns carry newer estates. Terraced property changes the job: rear access is usually the vulnerable side and cable routes are limited.

Sittingbourne

A town with more commercial work in the mix than most, because the trading and industrial estates are still a big part of it long after the paper mill closed. The housing is largely recent and straightforward, with the older stock around Milton Regis needing more thought.

Gravesend

Splits cleanly between Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the town centre and riverside, and the newer estates out towards Ebbsfleet. On the terraces the rear access is the vulnerable side and the cable routes are limited; on the new build neither is true.

Canterbury

A lot of period and listed property, much of it inside the conservation area, where fixings and cable routes need thinking about before anything is drilled. Outside the walls it is far more conventional, and the two need pricing differently.

Tunbridge Wells

Period property in quantity, plenty of it substantial and set back from the road, which usually means the driveway and the approach matter as much as the building. Gate automation and perimeter cameras come up here more than they do elsewhere.

Sevenoaks

Large detached houses, gated frontages and architect-designed properties, so this is where gate automation, video door entry and covering grounds rather than a building tend to be the actual brief.

Dartford

The London gateway end of Kent, with fast commuter links and a corresponding amount of property standing empty during the working day. Remote viewing and alerts to a phone matter more to people who are 40 minutes away when something happens.

Bromley

Greater London rather than Kent proper, and suburban in character, with a mix of interwar semis, newer flats and blocks needing communal door entry. Access control and door entry are a bigger share of the work here than they are further out.
