The service, locally
What a builders clean covers in Old Street EC1V
Warehouse and shell conversions around Old Street roundabout and Bunhill Fields burial ground leave brick dust in the mortar joints, paint specks across steel-framed glazing and a grey line along every exposed service run — a slower, drier clean than a standard refurb in this 98% flats neighbourhood — and 4,949 households on this patch, with 52% social-rented stock nearby.
Conversions around Old Street leave a very particular mess — brick and mortar dust in the joints, steel-frame glazing with dozens of edges, exposed services at height and floor finishes that show everything around Old Street (Northern, Great Northern) — and 98% of homes here being flats, with a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood.
Typical works here: warehouse and shell conversions. Access and parking: Red-route roundabout with no kerbside loading, goods-lift booking in the towers and gated estate yards.
