The service, locally
After builders cleaning in Totteridge N20
Totteridge's side returns and rear extensions leave the same four problems every time — track grit in the new bifolds, plaster dust in the old rooms, mortar splash on the patio and haze on the new floor on the Totteridge rounds — and 22% one-person households here, with 12% of homes here being flats.
Most Totteridge bookings follow a rear extension, side return or loft conversion on the streets near Totteridge Green and the village pond — and a median age of 44 in this neighbourhood, with Totteridge Green and the village pond a few streets away, which means the dust has travelled through the whole house rather than sitting in one room.
Typical works here: rear extensions, side returns and loft conversions. Access and parking: Long gravel drives, narrow lanes without passing places and gated entrances.
