In Wanstead (E11) the split is 30% flats to 70% houses over 4,526 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
Because 17% of Wanstead is privately rented and 12% socially rented, a lot of E11 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are solid London stock brick in Wanstead, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, which is what a 30% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Wanstead actually produces, so the fixing that matters in Wanstead is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Wanstead gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, where 72% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
A village high street with Georgian houses, the park and Wanstead Flats. That character decides the practical detail of building waste clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Wanstead 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: conservation-area streets, driveways on most roads and timed loading on the high street. Wanstead (Central) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton on most strip-outs; three crew and a tipper where the load is rubble, hardcore or soil and weight rather than volume decides the run.
