In Hounslow (TW3) the split is 43% flats to 57% houses over 18,207 households, and the stock is mainly Edwardian.
Because 40% of Hounslow is privately rented and 18% socially rented, a lot of TW3 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Hounslow substrates run to solid London stock brick in TW3, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, and with 21% one-person households in Hounslow, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Hounslow stock goes, a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the mistake that costs a TW3 customer twice.
Hounslow 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 — a long pedestrianised high street, the heath and airport-adjacent housing — which is why a TW3 quote is not a Hounslow average.
Pedestrianised high street with timed access; new blocks need booked lifts. Nearest station is Hounslow Central (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.
