North Tyneside covers a lot of ground. On the river there is Wallsend, with its shipbuilding history and Roman fort at Segedunum. At the mouth of the Tyne there are North Shields and its Fish Quay, and Tynemouth with its priory and castle on the headland. Further up the coast are Cullercoats and Whitley Bay, and inland are Killingworth, Longbenton and the business parks beside the A19. Our team is based in Sunderland, a short drive away through the Tyne Tunnel, and we help homes and businesses across the borough get properly connected.
Business parks beside the A19
North Tyneside is home to some of the largest office parks in the North East. Cobalt Business Park and the Silverlink area near the A19 hold large offices, contact centres and service businesses, and Quorum Business Park at Longbenton is another major office location. Teams on these sites often work entirely in cloud software and hold video calls all day, sometimes with many people online at the same time.
For offices like these, a leased line is often the natural choice. It is dedicated to your business, has the same speed in both directions, and faults are fixed faster than on everyday broadband. Smaller offices and serviced suites may be well served by business full fibre. Every leased line site is surveyed before we quote, so you get a price based on your premises.

Riverside industry and the coast
Along the river, from Wallsend through Howdon to North Shields, there are engineering, marine and offshore businesses, workshops and industrial units. Many share large technical files and run remote systems, so a dependable connection with good upload speed matters.
On the coast, the picture is different. Tynemouth Front Street, the Fish Quay and Whitley Bay seafront, including the restored Spanish City, are full of restaurants, bars, cafes, independent shops and guest houses. These businesses depend on card payments, bookings and guest WiFi, and they cannot afford to be offline on a sunny weekend. We can pair business broadband with mesh units, and recommend business grade access points for larger venues.
Homes and home working
North Tyneside has a huge range of homes: large Victorian and Edwardian houses in Tynemouth and Monkseaton, terraces in North Shields and Wallsend, and newer estates around Killingworth, Shiremoor and Backworth. Many residents commute into Newcastle, and plenty now work from home for part of the week.
Older seaside houses with thick walls and several floors can be hard for WiFi, so mesh units are worth considering. For video calls and cloud work, upload speed matters as much as download speed. Our home full fibre packages show clear prices including VAT, with yearly rises fixed in pounds and pence. Switching uses One Touch Switch, explained on our switching page.
