Addiscombe CR0 is mainly Edwardian and mixed-tenure: 42% of homes here are flats and 58% are houses, across 11,026 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 33% private renting against 54% owner-occupied, most CR0 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Addiscombe substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, and tram-line crossings, narrow terraced streets and permit bays near the tram stops. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Addiscombe stock goes, which is what a 42% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Addiscombe actually produces is the mistake that costs a CR0 customer twice.
Tree-lined Edwardian streets and a small parade east of central Croydon. That character decides the practical detail of construction site clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Addiscombe 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: tram-line crossings, narrow terraced streets and permit bays near the tram stops. Addiscombe (Tramlink) is the nearest station, and two operatives with a 3.5t tipper as standard, scaling to four operatives and a 7.5t vehicle on strip-outs or where the waste has to be barrowed a long way to the frontage.
