Walk Hammersmith from Hammersmith Bridge and the Riverside Studios outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 85% of the 3,807 households in W6 live in flats, 15% in houses.
Private renting sits at 38% and owner-occupation at 23%; the first group books driveway cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in W6, often with surface conduit — and with 38% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Hammersmith is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — the pattern behind 3,807 households inside the W6 neighbourhood.
Two streets can behave very differently in Hammersmith: riverside pubs and the Lyric theatre either side of a busy flyover and bus station. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Hammersmith is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
A4 red route, gyratory congestion and mansion blocks with small original lifts. Nearest station is Hammersmith (District, Piccadilly, Circle, Hammersmith & City), and one technician and a van-mounted hot-water pressure washer for most driveways; two on larger block-paving jobs where re-sanding is included, since brushing sand in is a second task run alongside the wash.
