Around Romford.
Romford is the main town of Havering, an old Essex market town that still holds its market in the square and now also carries the Liberty and Brewery shopping centres and a busy weekend nightlife. Much of the borough around it is interwar semis and bungalows, and residents often think of themselves as Essex first and London second. Trades here work a patch that runs from Harold Hill to Hornchurch and out towards Brentwood, so a website should say that plainly rather than leaning on "East London", a label many local customers would not use for themselves.
Elsewhere in Greater London: Dagenham (3 miles), Ilford (5 miles), Barking (5 miles) and East Ham (7 miles). Just over the council boundary, Brentwood (6 miles) and Loughton (7 miles) are close by. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.
Within Romford itself, we build for businesses in Gidea Park, Harold Wood, Harold Hill, Hornchurch, Collier Row, Rush Green and Upminster.
Romford (postcode area RM) sits about 172 miles east of Exeter.
