The E15 stock around Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is mainly Victorian. ONS records 61% flats, 39% houses and 10,391 households in Stratford.
Private renting sits at 37% and owner-occupation at 28%; the first group books patio and decking cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — where 28% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Stratford 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 — which is why London Borough of Newham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Two streets can behave very differently in Stratford: westfield, the Olympic Park and a skyline of new residential towers. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Stratford is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Every tower needs a booked goods lift and loading bay; estate roads are camera-controlled. Nearest station is Stratford (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR), and one technician for a standard garden patio or deck; two for a roof terrace or balcony where water has to be carried up by bowser and furniture moved through a lift or stairwell.
