In Barons Court (W14) the split is 88% flats to 13% houses over 2,853 households, and the stock is mainly Edwardian.

Barons Court substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, the pattern behind 2,853 households inside the W14 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Barons Court gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 88% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Barons Court actually produces is the mistake that costs a W14 customer twice.
Red-brick Edwardian streets and tennis clubs between the Talgarth Road and Hammersmith. That character decides the practical detail of mattress cleaning here far more than the borough boundary does. Barons Court is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: permit-only streets, mansion-block stair carries and A4 red-route restrictions on the southern edge. Barons Court (District, Piccadilly) is the nearest station, 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.
