The housing in Grays, and what it means for the work
Houses, converted flats and newer estates are all part of the work here. The older streets around the town centre and Little Thurrock have dated pipework and kitchen boilers, while Chafford Hundred and West Thurrock add later housing and apartment blocks with combi boilers and, in some developments, communal systems and managed access.
