In Belvedere (DA17) the split is 48% flats to 52% houses over 3,983 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
With 29% private renting against 50% owner-occupied, most DA17 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Belvedere substrates run to lath and plaster over timber studs; locally that also means with solid brick on the party and external walls, with 20% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 29% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a DA17 customer twice.
Belvedere is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — riverside industry, Lesnes Abbey woods above and quiet residential streets between — which is why a DA17 quote is not a Bexley average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: wide roads with driveways; the riverside industrial roads carry heavy traffic. Belvedere (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and two cleaners for a flat, two to three for a house, working together in one visit rather than spreading the job across days.
