Walk Putney from Putney Bridge and the Boat Race start outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 72% of the 20,613 households in SW15 live in flats, 28% in houses.
Private renting sits at 38% and owner-occupation at 47%; the first group books commercial cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SW15, with metal stud partitions between rooms — where 47% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Putney is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SW15, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — the pattern behind 20,613 households inside the SW15 neighbourhood.
Two streets can behave very differently in Putney: the Boat Race start, the embankment rowing clubs and the high street shops. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Putney is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, boat Race day closures, Putney High Street bus gate and mansion blocks with small lifts — 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 Putney (South Western).
