Walk Hoxton from The Museum of the Home outwards and the Georgian and early Victorian pattern is obvious: 96% of the 7,353 households in N1 live in flats, 3% in houses.
Private renting sits at 33% and owner-occupation at 22%; the first group books commercial cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in N1, often with surface conduit — a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, so the fixing that matters in Hoxton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in N1, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — the pattern behind 7,353 households inside the N1 neighbourhood.

Hoxton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, low-traffic filters on side streets, permit bays and loft stairs with tight turns — one reason one to four operatives depending on floor area, with a named supervisor and a mobile cover team for sickness. Fitters travelling in use Hoxton (Overground).
