In Southgate (N14) the split is 45% flats to 55% houses over 10,174 households, and the stock is inter-war.
The owner-occupier-led mix here (58% owned, 32% privately rented) means a N14 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in N14, with solid brick on the party and external walls, measured on the walk in from Southgate (Piccadilly) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Southgate is chosen on site — the usual failure here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, a median age of 39 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Southgate 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 — charles Holden's circular station at the centre of interwar suburbia — which is why a N14 quote is not a Enfield average.
Station circus gyratory, but driveways on almost every residential street. Nearest station is Southgate (Piccadilly), and two cleaners for a flat, two to three for a house, working together in one visit rather than spreading the job across days.
