Basildon's Trade Quarter β Pipps Hill and Cranes Farm Road
One of the original postwar new towns carries a particularly active housing maintenance and improvement trade β a large proportion of its stock dates from the 1950s and 60s and is cycling through second and third major refurbishment. The Pipps Hill and Cranes Farm Road corridor is effectively the town's trade quarter: Screwfix, Toolstation, Travis Perkins, Selco and MKM are all clustered within the same industrial estate network. Selco operates trade-only on proof of trade, giving it a different stock profile to the nationals β useful for higher-volume residential RMI work. City Plumbing and Wolseley handle the heating and plumbing trade on the same stretch, making this one of Essex's most complete single-trip supply points.
