The N6 stock around Highgate Cemetery is Georgian and early Victorian. ONS records 65% flats, 35% houses and 5,593 households in Highgate.
Private renting sits at 37% and owner-occupation at 51%; the first group books oven cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in N6, with solid brick on the party and external walls — where 51% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Highgate is chosen on site — the usual failure here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — and steep, narrow lanes where a luton is the practical limit, plus listed-building constraints.
Two streets can behave very differently in Highgate: hilltop village of Georgian houses, the cemetery and Waterlow Park. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Highgate is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Steep, narrow lanes where a Luton is the practical limit, plus listed-building constraints. Nearest station is Highgate (Northern), and one technician and a van-mounted dip tank; two for commercial ranges or where a lift booking limits the time on site.
