Expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — the reality on the streets around The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park behind the plaster in E9. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why London Borough of Hackney kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Hackney Wick knows the pattern near The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park: canal-side studios and warehouse blocks facing the Olympic Park. We plan the E9 visit around it. Hackney Wick is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Narrow canal bridges, studio blocks with freight lifts and event-day park closures. Nearest station is Hackney Wick (Overground), and one technician with a portable extraction machine and air mover on a single household booking; two technicians on HMO, student accommodation and serviced-apartment rounds where six or more mattresses are cleaned in a day.
